I downloaded this from YouTube and the quality is not the best.
It runs at 2 hours, but was originally screened in 3 episodes and there are some references made to events that I think have been edited out for some reason.
Anyway, for the time (1979) it is good.
I can recall at the time it was groundbreaking for the location filming in Iceland and there is a lot of scenery, although to be honest it is pretty barren and stark.
The lead character is not particularly likeable, which is probably how he was meant to be portrayed. He was not in a very likeable line of work.
It is a good fast paced adventure with not much in the way of irrelevant sub-plots.
Adapted from the book by Desmond Bagley.
