Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - Radio Times Feature and Listings

UPDATE 8th July 2026

I'm very grateful to Dee, a long time fan of these series, for supplying me with some high quality photos from a mint condition copy of this issue of the Radio Times. It is great to be able to read this article in full now and see how the series was originally promoted in the 8th-14th Sept 1979 issue. 

How wonderful to see that alternate photo of all the suspects around the conference table looking at the camera. 

If you click on an image below it will open up a gallery of all the images in this article. From here you can click on each image to move to the next one.

If you prefer to zoom in and study an image, you can 'right click' with your mouse and choose the option that says 'Open Image in New Tab'. You can then click on the image to zoom in and see it full size, making it very easy to read the text. 

I've also included scans of some of the pages listing the original broadcast of the episodes and the Christmas repeat.
