The Zoo Gang. Barry Morse, John Mills, Lily Palmer and, er, um, someone else I can't remember. Ex WWII spies with animal code names. Mills was 'Elephant' with a decent memory, and there was a fox for cunning but I can't remember which one. Also a tiger and a leopard, not sure who they were or what they were good at either. It was set in the French Riviera, and they were getting finances from robbing bad guys to fund themselves. Or something like that. I've asked others during my adulthood, and nobody has a clue what I'm talking about.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |
