i recently rented this promising mini series and i do not even know they had adapted it for television. i was really looking forward to it since the book icon is one of the best spy thrillers i have ever read. what a disappointment it was. the plot only loosely resembles the one in the book and the characters are completely miscast and there some appalling acting. a shame really. the story behind icon is perfect for the silver screen and but i think television budgets just aren not big enough for a decent adaptation of this spectacular book. forsyth deserves much and much better than this. avoid and stick to the book and which is a must read.
