Gefährliche Geschäfte

This serial is notable for two things; 1) Orson Welles was so annoyed that he wasn't entitled to any money from this series (he felt he "owned" the character of Harry Lime) that he released a radio series, called "The Lives Of Harry Lime", based on the adventures of Lime before the events of "The Third Man" novel and movie, as a spoiler operation; his version of Lime was more like the character Welles portrayed in the movie "The Lady From Shanghai" than Graham Greene's sleazy spiv. 2) According to Emlyn Williams, in his book "Beyond Belief" about the British 1963-65 "Moors Murders", the killer Ian Brady, when questioned by the prison psychiatrist, on why he committed the murders, claimed that the TV series made him do it, that he "wanted to be like Harry Lime".
