The great Len Deighton RIP

#lendeighton #berlintrilogy #Harrypalmer #ipcressfile

Len Deighton obituary: Len Deighton: How The Observer's cookery cartoonist became a master spy writer Best-selling spy author whose workaday secret agents were a world away from the glamour of James Bond.

RIP #LenDeighton His work has been in my Top 10 favourite books, movies and soundtracks since childhood, he got me into cooking & he was a huge influence on my work in #Deutschland83 and beyond. #TheIpcressFile #FuneralinBerlin #HarryPalmer #BernardSamson www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Rather lucky to live near a library that has both "The IPCRESS File" AND "Horse Under Water" on its shelves. So, believe me, I know Len Deighton's passage is the exit of a real talent, firsthand.

97 is a remarkable innings. Vale, sir. #RIP #HarryPalmer

Len Deighton didn't just detail the flipside of Bond. He was an equal literary king on the espionage chess board who yielded two of the best spy movies, compounded Caine's star power, and how British cool presents itself to this day.

Rest in peace, Len Deighton.

Somebody asked me why actors change their name. Isn't it obvious?
Do you want Maurice Micklewhite to play Harry Palmer?
And the Oscar goes to... Thomas Mapother.
No, thanks!

The Ipcress File (TV series) - Wikipedia

Just finished rewatching this, I'd forgotten how well put together it was. I wish the team could put together some more stories from this era. Available to stream on ITV X.

No one pavement dances in the Soho rain quite like you. Happy Birthday Mr. Caine!
