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.

Astonished that I almost missed seeing this piece of news: #LenDeighton (master spy writer) has died, #RIP aged 97 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
I thoroughly loved reading his trilogies with #Samson as central character, Game, Set & Match etc. and own all of those books… but also #TheIpcressFile!

RIP Len Deighton - the Harry Palmer film trilogy, starring Michael Caine and based on Deighton’s novels, are three of my favourite films of all time. #lendeighton #theipcressfile #funeralinberlin #billiondollarbrain #horseunderwater

You'd never guess, but I've been a fan of #LenDeighton for 60 years.
I chose #TheIpcressFile as a 5th form school prize and never looked back. Only recently I remarked on the similarity of the latest Night Manager denouement to that of #Mamista
My favourite remains #HorseUnderWater

Forgotten Spy Movies That Have Aged Like Fine Wine Movies about espionage often don't age well, but hidden gems like The Ipcress File, Where Eagles Dare, and Hopscotch hold up strikingly well.

One book ends, another one begins. Next up: #TheIPCRESSFile by #LenDeighton. Note the uppercase spelling of IPCRESS. It is correct, because it is an acronym, and that is how it appeared at the original publication. Detail is important.

If you are enjoying #TheIpcressFile and want more gritty London working class espionage, I cannot recommend “Slow Horses” more highly. Oldman farts. ‘Nuff said. #tcmparty

And now the latest thing from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop...

Has anyone seen the Kino Lorber blu ray? #TheIpcressFile #TCMParty

Only a couple of years earlier, Nigel Green, who plays the drab, humorous, mediocre Dalby in #TheIpcressFile, played the flamboyant, shirtless Hercules in “Jason & the Argonauts.” #tcmparty

This is the spy movie for aficionados of governmental
Bureaucratic process. And weird camera angles #TCMParty #TheIpcressFile
