Yes, as Malone alluded to above
No amount of alluding would have helped me with the answer remember seeing it briefly and thinking 'as I am a male this crap aint for me'
I know not of characters or actors

I watched the original series too. I watched the first couple of series of the remake, but then lost interest in it.

No sorry.

The actor playing the German is Robert Hardy.
A second main part German is played by Philip Madoc,
who was the Uboat commander in the;
'What is your name?'
'Don't tell him Pike'
Episode of Dad's Army

I had to look it up, but I’m still none the wiser, it’s a programme that escaped me.

I was saddened to see that Robert Hardy had died in 2017 he was the original Seigfried Farnon in All Creatures Grunt and Smell, but then he was quite old by then.

I seemed to be able to stay up a little later after coming home from cubs.
It was a fairley long walk home (none of the being picked up like they do nowadays) .
I would get in just before 9 so was able to stay up and watch it.
I would have been 10-11.

He was also a world reknown expert on the longbow.

The above TV series was MANHUNT.
Apparently available to watch again.

But would it hold the attention of a 64yr old as it did a 10yr old?
