How this season is filed
Danger Man (Secret Agent in U.S. syndication) is Patrick McGoohan's John Drake: spy craft with fewer toys and more professional chill. The ITC series is the sober sibling of Bond mania, and the runway to The Prisoner. McGoohan refuses to wink — taut missions, moral stubbornness, and the reason Number Six already feels like a resignation letter.

Koroshi is the late color-door pairing: Drake still the professional, McGoohan still not playing the tuxedo joke.

Shinda Shima closes the listed ITC run — catalog tail of spy craft that treated toys as optional and chill as mandatory.
- S04E01
Koroshi
A Japanese agent warns that a UN negotiator will be assassinated in New York by a Tokyo-based organisation. She is killed before she can give the details and Drake is sent to Tokyo to investigate. The only clue is a pendant the girl had.
