I wonder what you made of the new television version of the Buchan classic. Richard Hannay is one of my all time favourite book heroes. I was introduced to him by my English teacher at school, and have been a Buchan aficionado ever since. One of my new year resolutions is to join the John Buchan Society.
- The Times Online: Rupert Penry-Jones as Hannay
- Patrick Barlow's stage production of The Thirty-Nine Steps
- Buchan on my blog
- The Penry-Jones version on dvd
- N.B. the reviews are worth reading!

I quite enjoyed the TV version, but I love the Hitchcock film so much (and not just because of Madeleine Carroll) that it was bound to pale by comparison.
I like the Robert Powell version best!
