  • The second of three TV movies starring Dennis Waterman as former SAS man turned reluctant security agent, John Neil.
    (The previous episode, "Sleeping Dogs" had a later release date than this one, but chronologically followed the pilot episode with Derek Jacobi - hence why I've placed them in this order.)
    Can't recall any comment about these at the time, and they've been curiously neglected ever since. Yet Dark Secrets is a cracking thriller, competently plotted with an abundance of twists and surpries.
    Neil is asked to monitor one of his former SAS colleagues, Jim Caine (Sean McGinley), whom the secret service suspect of involvement in a safety deposit box robbery.
    (Plot spoilers from here)
    After learning that Caine is using information from documents stolen in the robbery to commit blackmail, the service have deemed him a threat to national security, and Neil's task is to find out who he is blackmailing. Neil uses Caine's partner Kate (Kate Buffery) to gain a way in, and discovers that Caine's target is none other than Harry Summers (Corin Redgrave), an ambitious member of Parliament who has a history of run-ins with the security services.
    Neil discovers that Summers' assistant Sarah Ellis (Holly Aird) has hired a South African hitman, Eugene Travis (Joe Montana) to target those who have become privy to the true identity of Summers' father, a wanted war criminal who eloped from Germany in 1949 and used false documents to obtain British citizenship. But before Neil can investigate further, he is ordered off the case by his superiors.
    First broadcast 27th December 1995.
    Corin Redgrave as Harry Summers
    Kate Buffery as Kate Moore
    Pippa Guard as Elizabeth Ferrer
    Melanie Hill as Angie Norman
    Holly Aird as Sarah Ellis
    Sean McGinley as Jim Caine
    Adjoa Andoh as Daniela
    Joe Montana as Travis

    This is a lift from the movie The Bank Job starring Jason Statham & David Suchet, where the team are unwittingly used by the Security Services to get incriminating photos out of a criminal's Safety Deposit Box. Statham's crew eventually find this evidence & use it to set up a deal with the Authorities.
    Never heard of this mini-series at all - made in 1995 & now it's 2024.

      ​@@FoogouFilmsYou should. Apparently, it's a true story. The perosn of inteterest re' National Security was Princess Margerate. Lord Mountbatton was the key figure who guarunteed the pardons of those involved in the bank volt robbery that was by MI5 as the tool to get photos that documented her saucey lifestyle.

    Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
    Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ."
    Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
    Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
    Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
    Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
    Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
    Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
