Permission to Kill

Cyril Frankel is a British film and television director, now retired. His career in television began in 1953 and he directed for over 30 TV programmes until 1990. He directed many episodes of popular British TV shows, such as The Avengers, and the pilot episodes of the ITC Entertainment shows... Randall and Hopkirk and Department S in 1969. In 1970, he directed "Timelash", an episode of UFO, which he described as a very interesting script and one of his personal favourites. Frankel also directed many documentaries and feature films, including Never Take Sweets from a Stranger and School for Scoundrels . One of his films, Man of Africa - the first film to feature a cast made up of relatively unknown black actors - was not released and was apparently lost. A complete copy has since been discovered and has been screened at a number of international film festivals.
