I seem to have vague memories of the series on a Saturday night on BBC1 (I could be wrong about this), also watching the film versions on ITV during the school summer holidays.
You could be right, but I remember it as a mid-week show. It created quite a splash when it started in England. I always loved it. A very American show in the best possible way, so stylish & so sixties. I haven't seen it for ages, I wish a TV station would pick it up over here. With the new movie coming (which doesn't interest me at all), maybe Warner will think about doing some HD transfers of the TV series.
Isn't the suitcase boxset still limited to the U.S.?
I thought so, but Amazon UK are selling the suitcase box for £178.57, & they say it's region 2. It looks like it comes from Australia, so it looks like it was released there as well. I'm almost tempted, but it's a lot of money, & I tend to buy TV box sets & not getting around to watching them.

Dum dum a dum dum ...dum da dum da dum. Love it!!!
Yeah went nuts for this show. I Remember the merchandise you lot refer to. I had the kuryakin mauser pistol in a flat black mini-briefcase which came with Screw on butt and sight. A mate had the solo gun.
Also had a brill jigsaw of the agents in wet suits climbing out of a pool i think - maybe solo had red wetsuit and spear gun. Dunno. All a bit of a blur and could easily be mixing it up with stills from thunderball!!
Maybe somewhere thete are pics of such jigsaw boxes and toy guns??

From my memory greg, thats correct. Seem to recall he was the rising "street" favourite even though mag 7 robert was the star and people were discussing kuryakin's expanding role like the woman in life of brian talking about the meek.
"oh the meek! Blessed are the meek! Oh thats nice isnt it coz theyve had a hellava time"
tg -first film mary poppins. And mum had to explain it would be dark in the cinema.
My older cousin went unawares and auntie had to bring him out coz he was crying when lights dimmed!

In 2007, TimeLife.com began exclusively selling The Man from U.N.C.L.E. - The Complete Series, a collection which came in a collectible "attache case" package. In 2008, Warner Home Video took over the product, selling the same package "wide" at general retail. While you can still find copies of it around, that item has actually been discontinued for a little while, and there are still many fans out there who still haven't gotten it...or don't want it in the oversized special packaging it's been available in so far.
For those fans, Warner is re-releasing The Man from U.N.C.L.E. - The Complete Series this November 4th in a new "unlimited" (and shelf-friendly) package, with the same 41 DVDs as previously included, but apparently without all the accompanying bells and whistles. Expect the discs to come in slimmer season sets, and a separate case for the bonus "debriefing" discs, all slid into an outer slipcase that we've got pictured below, front and back. Price will be $199.92 SRP
