A twist on the conventional cop drama, English actor Rod Mullinar played Australian private eye Michael Ryan, a former policeman who now liked to do things his own way.
When a crime or problem was too delicate, too dangerous, or too flammable for the police to handle, Ryan was available, as long as the case met his stringent code of ethics.
Future Mrs Billy Connolly, Pamela Stephenson, played Ryan’s efficient secretary and girl Friday, Julie King. Luigi Villani played Ryan’s odd-job man, Tony Angelini.
Every he-man in the show drove a Valiant Charger.
Ryan was made by Crawford Productions (their fourth simultaneous drama, with Homicide, Division 4 and Matlock Police) for the Seven Network.
