Going Back Over 50 Years to the Very First Episode of the Saint TV Saint Car ‘ST 1’ aka 71 DXC returns to where it all started – The Ferry Inn, Cookham Going back over 50 years to the very first episode of The Saint – ‘The Talented Husband’ a white gleaming Volvo sports car made its debut on our TV Screens with the handsome Roger Moore at the wheel, alias Simon Templar – ‘The Saint’. The car a white Volvo P1800 had only a few days before been picked up from the Volvo Dealership in Mayfair, London and was now out on location in Cookham in the beautiful Surrey countryside. In the opening sequences of the episode, ST 1 aka 71 DXC comes down Cookham High Street, hooted it’s horn a an elderly lady crossing the road, over the river bridge and into the Carpark of the Ferry Inn Hotel, where The Saint would be spending the next few days investigating the attempted murder of a friend, with Insurance Investigator, the glamorous Adrienne Halbert played by Shirley Eaton of James Bond 007 Goldfinger fame. 53 Years On -The Saint Returns! Last February I had the opportunity to revisit Cookham in Surrey and the Ferry Inn with my 2 daughters Treena and Kerris, while spending a few days around Elstree and the Studio, so Treena, the eldest, could do some research for a school project. Having visited the studio and had a tour of the site, including seeing Sound Stages 7 & 8 where The Saint was filmed and now has an illuminated sign on the end wall, it was off to Cookham and to see where 71 DXC first came into our homes in that very first episode.

Well...all that badly. But falling from a bicycle is much different from falling into life. Into someone’s waiting hands. Both can be catastrophic, if you make them, when you emphasize the flaws - the rocks - the yellow curtains - the passing motorcar - a pressed flower album And growing up is no easy chore, for then you’ve got the added risk of others on the road.

This was scrapped, and Ian Ogilvy took over the halo for 24 episodes as Simon Templar. This amount is subject to change until you make payment. He also somewhat deplored the tendency for the Saint to be seen primarily as a detective, and this was even stated in some of the later stories, e. Reading about Charteris' "amiable rascal" is infinitely easier and much more relaxing than writing more stories about my own fictitious rascal, Misfit Lil whom I like to think shares a trait or two with Mr Simon Templar!

  • The Saint Mystery Library Are Almost All Anthologies
    The Saint Books An overview The two book series indexed here are only indirectly related to each other. In each case the books were issued by the company that was then publishing The Saint Mystery Magazine. However, the magazine had changed hands between the two series, including a year’s hiatus between the two publishers. The two constants over the magazine’s history were the editorial direction of Leslie Charteris and the direct editorship of Hans Stefan Santesson. The publisher of Great American Publications was given as Henry Scharf in issues of The Saint Mystery Magazine. The ownership of Fiction Publishing Company remains a mystery. One would expect it to be revealed by the annual Post Office-mandated Statements of Ownership in the magazine, but this incarnation did not have a second- class mailing permit so they never printed one. The indexing of each series presents its own problems. The Saint Mystery Library are almost all anthologies. The volumes list Leslie Charteris as the editor of the series, which I have stretched to give him credit as editor of the individual volumes. The Saint Novels were all reprints of previously published Saint books, all by Leslie Charteris. Obviously an author Index of the book titles for either series would have only one author: Leslie Charteris. Thus I have dispensed with that level of Author Index and produced a combined Author Index, containing both the book titles and the contents. The book titles are printed in italics. The usual citations for prior publications of the books didn’t fit into this format, so I annotated them into the Numerical Listings instead.
