When Moore got a telephone offer to do JAMES BOND with his son poolside, Roger pause the caller and asked his son: "Who would you remember more, Bond or The Saint?" His son replied: "The Who?" But, I did enjoy THE SAINT whilst growing up. Good to be able to get all my homework done early and as a reward, get up at late night and watch an episode. Not just a fond memory but a better time and place for most of us.

Better time and place for sure. I'm with you. Sad part is, I remember thinking that when I grew up my future was going to be so great, I couldn't wait to get older. Now, I see the "future" isn't so great after all , and wishing I could go back. Sucks to know your best days are now behind you, and didn't even take time to really enjoy them. "Youth" truly is wasted on the young 😔

Manner, civility ,dignity, class, style… Who on earth would care to follow this lead? Back in those days they are more than character but example. We followed, and aspired! The legacy is permanent .

It's nice to see good guys being actual good guys because they had decent principles. Now you have bad good guys and good bad guys. The overwhelming need to victimize villains is not entertaining to me.

Little known fact, Roger studied Ving Tsun Kung fu under GM Victor Kan, Bruce Lee’s elder Kung fu brother. When Lee Marvin challenged Roger to a fight, Roger beat Marvin up. Marvin said Roger was a real tough guy. Sifu, GM Victor Kan, said he was too soft to be a fighter. As my Kung fu brother (we studied under the same teacher, GM Victor Kan), Roger is my favourite bond, and one of my heroes. Love him.

Watching this late at night. TV Land and Nick at Nite used to air these late at night and I had a craving for it now (just coming up on midnight). Still hard to believe Roger's gone now. Back when we sat around in college watching these on TV Land, even though Roger was fully retired, it was comforting to know he was still around.

The Saint always used to be on a Sunday evening. The next day one of my friends and I, I remember her name was Christine, went through all the fight scenes on the way to school. She didn't have a very happy home life I think. Neither did I; but I'll never forget the expression of happiness and sheer enjoyment on her face. Way to go Simon !

Loved how they Incorporated footage of the Late Great Jim Clark into the episode. You could tell it was the great man himself as the helmet and gloves changed colour to black and the car suddenly got a stripe at times

Lovely memories ! Rip Sir Roger.

Writers came from all sorts of backgrounds, and all were avid readers, hence the great or sly literary references. Nowadays they're from "industry" families and their life experience is basically film school or media studies - four years spent watching and then re-hashing old scripts but with less depth of character and increasing escalation of porn and violence.

Um excelente vídeo, eu não conhecia o seriado o santo protagonizado por Roger Moore nos anos 1960 ,um show especial e excelente

Race footage probably from 1964 British G.P. Some editing didn't match that well, mixing a bit of earlier footage from 1958 or 59, but that doesn't mater at all. The whole effect was excellent. Very 60 s British TV. The subject car was I think, a Lotus 22 Formula Junior and the fuel injection system was big side draft Weber DCOE. The movie Grand Prix (1966) did the same thing by using Formula Three cars mocked up with wide wheels and added on body work to make them appear like Formula One cars. Great job considering the time and budget that was available to them. Really like the series, saw these broadcast in Canada as a kid, we generally got them six months to a year after they ran in Britain. Same for Danger Man and The Avengers.
