Beginning in 1953, it ran for six series of 118 episodes concluding in 1969 - but few survive in the ´óÏó´«Ã½ archive. (A TV series was made in 1969). For the first seven episodes, David Tomlinson played David, but the rest starred the future star of The St Trinian's films - destined to find great fame as the dodgy Arthur Daley in ITV's ‘Minder’ - George Cole.

Producer: Leslie Bridgmont

First broadcast on the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Home Service in February 1959.
