BBC's new adaptation of John Buchan's thriller is the best ever!Richard Hannay (Rupert Penry-Jones) finds himself framed for a murder he didn't commit. Now he has to break a ruthless German espionage network to prove his innocence and, more importantly and patriotically, warn the admiralty that its plans have fallen to the enemy.
Full of excitement, danger, fun and romance, The 39 Steps is a remarkable tale of an ordinary man who puts his country's interests before his own safety.
Terrible. Sorry but give me Robert Donat, Robert Powell or Kenneth More (in that order) all much better than this which has no sparkle or ability to engage
