Public Eye

Thames made 46 episodes of Public Eye from 1969 to 1975, and this one dates from 29/11/1972. Various storylines were set in Brighton, then Windsor and Chertsey, with Marker moving from one location to another in search of work. After 1975, Thames had wanted to continue the series on film, under the Euston Films moniker, just as had happened with Van der Valk. But Alfred Burke feared the increase in production values might also lead to an increase of pace and cause the series to lose its particular, low-key identity. He declined to continue as Marker.
