Callan spats with "LONELY" were clasics imo.

Used to love being allowed to stay up late to watch it with my dad when I was a kid.
Question for Callan buffs
What was the title of the original 1 off programme that led to the Series?
10p prize for the winner

He was brilliant in Breaker Morant, far superior to the silly Wickerman. RIP Ewar

Always remember it from my younger days. Always found this intro sinister, especially the bit in the elevator!

Top man and a great actor. RIP
Edward Woodward will always be the punch-line to my all-time favourite joke.
What do you call a man with 3 trees on his head?
