BBC Scotland
9.25 pm Running Blind: Desmond Bagley's best-seller, now a fast-moving TV thriller with an Icelandic background. Here Jack Gerson introduces the leading characters:
ALAN STEWART has a past he is trying to forget. That past included strange journeys abroad, passports in many names, dangerous encounters and sudden death in a northern forest. Believing all this is over, he receives a visitor from his past and finds himself again on a mission into the unknown.
ELIN RAGNARSDOTTIR met and fell in love with Alan Stewart. Suddenly her love for Alan leads her into a nightmare chase across the wild hinterland of her native Iceland, the Odadahraun, the ' Murderer's Country ' of Icelandic legend. And for Elin it becomes again murderer's country...
SLADE, a high-ranking officer in British Intelligence, has made a career out of corruption and betrayal. He will use Alan as a courier to carry a mysterious piece of equipment; and, when Alan's usefulness is at an end, will not hesitate to terminate his mission with ' extreme prejudice'.
VASLAV KENNIKIN is Slade's opposite numbet in the KGB. A complex man, he is tormented by a desire for vengeance against the enemy he once counted as friend. That enemy is Alan Stewart...
Above, left to right: Vladek Sheybal as Kennikin, Heida Steindorsdottir as Elin, George Sewell as Slade; and centre. Stuart Wilson as Alan Stewart.
