Hannay was a 1988 ITV television series, a prequel spin-off from the 1978 film version of John Buchan's 1915 novel The Thirty-Nine Steps.

The film and series starred Robert Powell as Richard Hannay in the post Second Boer War years.

[1][2] In the series, Powell reprised the role of Hannay, an Edwardian mining engineer from Rhodesia of Scottish origin.

Though a mixture of studio and location filming, the entire production (with the exception of the opening and closing title footage) was shot on videotape rather than the more expensive (yet typical) practice of shooting TV drama location exteriors on 16mm film.

Hannay was released in a four-disc Region 2 DVD set by Delta Visual Entertainment in February 2006.
