The Man In Room 17 + The Fellows (Late of Room 17)




The Man In Room 17 is a late 60's crime drama with a different twist, which you can read about by clicking the link below because I'm tired and going to make this short. Starring Richard Vernon and Michael Aldridge in the first series,....Aldridge was replaced by Denholm Elliott in the second (Aldridge was a very busy stage actor at that time). The third series, in 1967, was rebranded The Fellows (late of Room 17) with Aldridge rejoining Vernon. This show had that kind of breezy 60's hip vibe to it, similar to several other intrigue dramas back then, and there are many familiar faces that turn up in these episodes but I'm not listing them. The 1968 criminal drama Spindoe (posted here Christmas 2011) was a spinoff of The Fellows with that character appearing in three of the 13 episodes.
