H.G. Wells' Invisible Man

Shadow on the Screen (1x7)

Fecha de emisión: Nov 02, 1958

A Russian sailor makes a bid for freedom from a trawler at anchor in a British harbour, but is soon captured and taken back to the ship. The head of the refugee committee appeals to Brady to help them and although reluctant to assist, he soon decides to sneak on board the ship and find out what he can do to help - however, it soon turns out that Brady has been set up, and he is ambushed by the sailors as the ship heads back towards Russia. Often during the series, Brady seems to consider himself a sort of super-hero, and episodes like this show that he is rather vunerable, in this case to a new Russian technology based on radar, that lets them see the Invisible Man - it is only a pity that the writers did not exploit this particular theme more. A decent episode and the first for a while that revolves around Brady himself.
