Hill was great in both TV roles. The lore is that he left MI because he was orthodox and would not work late on Fridays. Wikipedia confirms this with details, giving me more confidence in what was accepted but unconfirmed as fact in my home growing up, though I guess it may stem from some common urban myth. I am going to try to find "Lady Without a Passport" streaming somewhere.
