A pretty good mini-series (even before anybody knew what a mini-series was) with lots of twists and turns. Pretty involving storyline based on the book of the same name. Just wish it was available on video, but you might pick it up on TBS some day.

Only bad thing was the total unbelievability of two 10 year old kids with amateur extra class licenses and enough equipment to make any ham salivate.

This could easily have been 2 episodes instead of 3.

Too much boring filler material and it's obvious. Great footage of the Festivale with Queen Mary interiors. No shortage of terrible French accents and a cringe worthy performance by Telly Savalas.
