I dimly remember watching a US series as a kid about a secret agent/crime buster who had implanted cameras and earphones etc, and was linked to a Houston style control room who could see everything he was up to and fed him all sorts of info and help. I thought it was dead cool at the time but would be very interesting to look at now with hindsight.

Never come across it since - anyone else remenber it - I guess it must be 70s?

Joe 90 is the only one I can think of, but it wasn't American.... lots of gadgets though.

Would it be too obvious to suggest the Six Million Dollar Man?

No I think it was about the same time though. I don't think control could actually see what Steve Austin was doing.

Don't really remember that one. I notice it had a couple of fine old stagers in it - Burgess Meredith and Sir John Gielgud.

That's it! Ain't PH wonderful - I reckon that is seriously obscure despite Sir John and Burgess
