AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A pilot for a planned TV series that the Seven Network declined to pick up, Me & Mr Thorne was set in the shop of an eccentric bookseller, who fancied himself as an amateur detective, and planned to draw his reluctant assistant into his pursuit of criminals.

Notes

  • Telemovie.
  • Television pilot.
  • This is sometimes conflated in online sources with John Farnham's later and more successful television appearance in Bobby Dazzler, perhaps because he played characters called Bobby in both series.
