I bet that Pravin who has suggested this topic has never heard of Leslie Charteris
or The Saint.
If he had, he would not have suggested this topic.
Luckily for me, these three were a very important part of my growing up process and part of the reason why I became such an avid reader.
So, Pravin, yes, there is every possibility. All that you need is a bit of imagination.
Pravin has suggested this week’s LBC topic. You can see what the other writers of the LBC have to say in their respective blogs. Maria, Pravin, Ashok and Shackman.
oops – I wrote on the wrong topic – it has been a long, lousy week. But I did love The Saint! Great show. Simon Templar was always a fave.

I have never seen The Saint on a movie or TV screen. I have read all the books though.
Well, of course you can be a saint in a suit. Saintliness is a quality of mind and behaviour, and has nothing to do with the type of clothing you wear. Though I guess many Brits would see a saint as someone with long flowing robes and a long white beard.

According to that definition, I should qualify to be a Saint. Pravin will be overjoyed!
I wasn’t watching much TV at the time so I missed it. It sounds like it was fun. 🙂

I do not think I have seen this, so I Googled it and found this site amusing: http://www.bondsuits.com/james-bond-vs-saint-two-1960s-conduit-street-suits/
You would be too young to have even known about this author and his creation. And the link took me to very interesting information. Thank you.
I remember watching the saint on tv with Bob! a pleasant memory.
and anglophile that I am I loved his accent and the whole setting of the show.
so much more civilized than the action shows of today. or as I recall it anyway.
and… every bit as suspenseful too!
