  3. John Sturges – „The Great Escape“ (1963)

    Ein amerikanischer Kriegsfilm, der insbesondere in Großbritannien zu einem ewigen Dauerläufer wurde – und das, ausgerechnet, zu Weihnachten. Keine Frage, alleine die Besetzung mit Steve McQueen, James Garner, Richard Attenborough, Charles Bronson, Donald Pleasence, James Coburn und Hannes Messemer ist selbst heutzutage noch ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal, das seinesgleichen sucht. (ARTE)

  5. The Sixth Finger, a 1963 episode of The Outer Limits. A scientist tries to speed up human evolution. He creates a super-intelligent man, who sadly has a few issues. A bold and interesting episode.

The episode is co-written by Brian Dietzen, who has played Ducky's protege Dr. Jimmy Palmer since Season 1.

  10. #DavidMcCallum was one of those people who I *would* have remembered tremendously fondly if only he’d kept his trap shut about his fucking awful politics.

  14. TIL: einer der meistgesampleten Titel im Hip Hop (zB in 'The Next Episode' von Dre und Snoop) heisst 'The Edge' und ist von - David McCallum. McCallum ist Ducky aus NCIS.

  15. One of my favorite dialog exchanges ever in a TV show (from NCIS season 2). Kate, "Gibbs, what did Ducky look like when he was younger?" Gibbs, "Ilya Kuryakin." youtube.com/watch?v=inkdfx496hU

  16. This is a summary of my TV watching through my life from The Man From UNCLE in my teens to NCIS in my sixties and seventies. It's also been great fun catching up with his 1950s films on Talking Pictures TV and other stations. theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/g #DavidMcCallum

  17. #TheManFromUNCLE 14 (1964) - 9/10
    Delightful episode.

    1️⃣ And what a cast! #DavidMcCallum, #WilliamShatner, #LeonardNimoy, #RobertVaughn.

    2️⃣ It plays like a light-hearted episode of #MissionImpossible and it gets very clever towards the end.

    3️⃣ According to #IMDb users, this is the 2nd best episode of the series.

  18. Voglio ricordare #DavidMcCallum soprattutto per l'#uomoinvisibile del #1975 che nella sua trashaggine cmq da ragazzino mi ha fatto viaggiare molto con la fantasia

    [incredibile che la sigla video e audio pulita originale da sola su YT non esista]

  19. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. was a little before my time. I remember Sapphire and Steel and hadn’t an interest in NCIS. But I very distinctly remember loving the 1970s TV Invisible Man with David McCallum. I was entranced/ weirded-out every time McCallum would remove his wig and face mask to go invisible. Long after I’d see him in something like the Great Escape and say “It’s the Invisible Man!” #DavidMcCallum #InvisibleMan #ManFromUNCLE #SapphireAndSteel #1970sTV

  21. Sad to hear today of the passing of David MacCullum. The Man from U.N.C.L.E originally aired somewhat before my time, but I watched the repeats when I was young and I'm not going to lie, young me had a bit of a crush on Illya Kuryakin! I also enjoyed his role in NCIS. :blobcatsadpats: #davidmccallum #NCIS #TheManFromUNCLE

  22. So sad to hear David McCallum has died. He played so many iconic roles that he's got fans of all generations. But he'll always be Illya Kuryakin for me. The Man From U.N.C.L.E. movies used to be a staple of filler TV in Britain in the 1970s, and kid me was hooked! MFU was my first fandom, even before Star Trek.

    As the somewhat suggestive fan slogan from the 60s goes: All the way with Illya K. 😏
