Every government has it’s secret service branch, America - CIA, France - le dessein bureau, England MI5. NATO also has it’s own. A messy job? Well, that's when they call on me, or someone like me. Oh, yes, my name is Drake, John Drake.
Danger Man was a British television series that aired between 1960 and 1962 and again between 1964 and 1968. It starred Patrick McGoohan as secret agent John Drake. The series was created by Ralph Smart (some sources erroneously credit McGoohan with creating it), and it was produced by ITC Entertainment. In the United States, the second and third seasons of the series were aired under the title Secret Agent. The final two episodes of the series are often seen edited together as a TV movie entitled Koroshi.
John Drake was a special operative for NATO, specialising in security assignments against any subversive element that threatened world peace. The series featured many exotic locations from all over the world, but the show never sensationalized and was down-to-earth and realistic.
