Mogul/The Troubleshooters
1 9 6 5 - 1 9 7 2 (UK)
136 x 50 minute episodes
 This
BBC series starred Ray
Barrett as Peter Thornton, an Australian field agent for
the multinational oil company of the title.
The Mogul company was
headed by Geoffrey Keen (Brian Stead).
After the first series of 13 episodes, the show's title became
The Troubleshooters - although it kept the title Mogul when
shown in other countries.
The opening titles went all out to create a tense mood for the
show, with shots of oil gushing forth, things exploding, planes
taking off, racing cars, Barrett in a speedboat and Keen coming
out of a Rolls.
The theme tune was written by Tom Springfield (brother of
Dusty) and the series was created by John Elliott
