Storyline
A long-running British TV series starring Alfred Burke as dour private-eye Frank Marker. Cynical and world-weary, Marker is frequently the unwitting stooge in bigger criminal wheels in his attempts to make a tenuous living on the outskirts of London. Fairly cheaply made on video, when the series went into colour in 1970, rather than re-making the evocative title sequence, the producers (Thames Television) merely put it through a sepia filter!

Trivia
First seen in "Well - There Was This Girl, You See...", the framed artwork given to Frank by Nell Holdsworth which decorates his offices thereafter, is an 1823 representation by John George Murray (after James Stephanoff), of 'The Trial of Queen Caroline', when the Pains and Penalties Bill 1820 was pushed through and passed in the House of Lords at the bequest of King George IV in an attempt to discredit his estranged wife. Its title is fully "View of the interior of the House of Lords, during the important investigation in 1820." See more »
