Mister Jerico is a 1970 British crime comedy film directed by Sidney Hayers and starring Patrick Macnee.[2] Originally made for TV, it was released theatrically in the U.K. and some other territories.[3] Smooth conman Dudley Jerico plots to relieve millionaire Mr. Rosso of his Gemini diamond.
It was filmed in London and Malta.[4]
The Radio Times found it a "disappointing comedy caper...despite the catchy title track from Lulu and the star's stunning array of flowery shirts";[5] whereas Cinedelica wrote "the final minutes are a bit cheesy, but it's still solid entertainment...Certainly one for ITC and Avengers fans - and indeed, anyone who likes a 60s crime caper."[6]
