About this electronic
He is known as The Baron ? a man whose career is a crescendo of breathtaking thrills. He finds adventure through his business as an international art and antique dealer. It takes him into the webs woven by crime and avarice, and even into espionage. It's a business that stirs the greed, vanity, envy and passions of men and women of many walks of life and many different countries. Often an undercover man for British Intelligence, The Baron knows the world and loves adventure. Master storyteller John Creasey created him, and Hollywood's Steve Forrest portrays him, with help from his assistant Cordelia, played by British actress Sue Lloyd. In 1966, ITC transformed 4 episodes from the series into 2 feature film versions: The Man in a Looking Glass and Mystery Island. Destined for European theatrical exhibition and having been shot on 35mm film, these 2 features have been restored and are presented in high-definition for the first time. Accompanying them are the 4 series episodes (Masquerade / The Killing and Storm Warning / The Island) which were the basis for the film versions, also in high-definition, and are presented in the original 4:3 aspect ratio. Included with The Baron - The Feature Films is SUE LLOYD at ITC. The glamorous actress, who rose to stardom in the Harry Palmer thriller The Ipcress File, appeared in many of the ITC action series, and this high-definition release showcases her performances in Gideon's Way, The Saint, Department S, and in an additional episode of The Baron.
