I've enjoyed rewatching the series starring Sam Neill recently. Viewing it, you'll see why Neill was strongly considered for the role of Bond after Roger Moore got too leathery. While that mantle ultimately got passed on to Timothy Dalton (imo no bad thing), Neill would have in many respects delivered a suave, sophisticated and ultimately believable representation of 007. I can't help but wonder if Pierce Brosnan took note from Neill's portrayal of Reilly.
Excellent acting all round, beautiful theme music (Shostakovitch's Romance portion of the Gadfly suite), and a believably adapted story.
Highly recommended, you can purchase it here.
