5.0 out of 5 stars Great alternative to the Saint, 24 April 2006
By pointone (Bournemouth UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Think tall, loose limbed, assured and astute Texan, think Saint and you have John Mannering, cattle rancher, international antique dealer who is regularly called in by the secret service to trouble shoot dangerous problems throughout the world (well Elstree Studio actually with bought in stock footage).

Co-starred is Sue Lloyd as Cordelia Winfield, a long legged English rose, quite different to the girls in similar programs, complementing the Baron's character very well and frequently having to be rescued at the last moment by him.

Equal third star is the car, the incomparable 1966 Jensen Chrysler V8 powered "Interceptor" that precisely matched Mannering's personality and is a joy to watch whenever it appears.
The stories are the usual entertainment style thrillers of the late sixties, but there is not a single weak story.

After thirty episodes I wanted more, strongly recommended for lovers of the genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic TV, 13 Nov 2005
By D. Pyke "The Good Captain" (uk) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
When I was a kid 2 ITC series used to thrill me week after week. One of these was The Baron. Although a little dated the series is still as good as I remember it. Exciting, well written and produced and wonderfully performed. I heartily recommend this set.
ps - The other series was Man in a Suitcase.

5.0 out of 5 stars A long forgotten classic, 14 Jul 2005
By A Customer
The Baron has always been my favourite ITC series but has suffered by virtual non availability on VHS or DVD apart from a few episodes on VHS in the early 90s .It was the first ITC series shot in colour and remains true to the genre in every way
It is very mid 1960s in style .In some ways it is very dated but thats only because no-one makes TV shows like this any more If you are a fan of ITC and/or the 1960s this series will not disappoint you :if you ve never watched anything like this before you may be in for a pleasant surprise
