You Can't See 'Round Corners is an Australian drama and military TV series that aired on the Seven Network for 26 episodes from 28 June 1967 based on the 1947 novel by Jon Cleary, updated to be set during the Vietnam War.
It was directed by David Cahill and shot around Sydney in black and white, and was adapted into a film version in 1969.
[1][2] Jim Oswin of ATN-7 asked Richard Lane if he knew of an Australian novel to adapt.
The novel was set in Paddington but Lane thought that suburb had changed so much by the 1960s he relocated it to Newtown.
