Lots of exotic locations were used, as opposed to Roger's stint as Simon Templar, when he would often appear freezing in front of an imitation palm tree, and pretend he was somewhere like Barbados.
Ian's "Saint" had a more expensive look to it, and he has always reminded me a of a younger Roger, in mannerisms and in looks, and has a certain charm too. Well, they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!
Ian made a great attempt at re-creating Simon Templar on tv, but give me Roger's version any day.
