The Troubleshooters: There's This Bird, See...

on BBC One London

by John Elliot
[Starring] Geoffrey Keen, Ray Barrett, Philip Latham, Jayne Sofiano
Guest stars, Fabia Drake, Joseph O'Conor

A remote island in the Indian Ocean may seem the perfect drilling location. No population, beautiful weather, not even a foreign government to deal with for it is British-owned. But - there's this bird, see... and birds, feathered of course, spell trouble for Mogul.
Filmed on location in Ceylon, this story brings two fine guest stars to The Troubleshooters. Fabia Drake as Maud Price, proving that even Brian Stead can be brow-beaten, and Joseph O'Conor, whom viewers will remember as Old Jolyon in The Forsyte Saga.
