one of the few known stills from "Vergißmeinnicht", a german show aired back in January 11, 1968, where Robert Vaughn and David McCallum were handcuffed , and the host Peter Frankenfeld was trying to look for the keys to release them .(sadly now deleted and lost forever)
When I found out the news about David McCallum I remembered this drawing I'd had sitting in my sketchbook unfinished for ages.
Good old Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin, together again forever. <3
Rest In Peace David
I dreaded this day, and it hurts just as much as I thought it would.
But you lived a long life, and, most of all, you're with Robert again--that part of yourself you said you've been missing since that equally horrible day in 2016.
Though you're both gone, Napoleon and Illya will live on, always ready to save the day once again.

In The Young Philadelphians, Chet gets whumped repeatedly, being mistreated by his family which drives him to alcoholism, losing an arm in the Korean War, being mistreated worse because of it on his return, and then being framed for murder. Good thing best friend Tony's got his back.
The only message I've had from you was to get the silver dove at all hazards nevertheless. All right. Now, I've done just that, and the entire official apparatus is after me. I can't even get out of this country.
