In the books, he has mad physical skills plus gadgets galore to help him on his missions, which occur at pace and in a variety of exotic locations (including space), strewn with villains presiding over the grandest of evil plans.

Alex has been aged a little for the television version, as has – more subtly – everything else. There are far fewer gadgets, and the relationship between Alex and his Uncle Ian (he starts as an orphan in the books, cared for and unwittingly trained in survival skills by “boring banker” Ian, played by Andrew Buchan) is established before the latter is killed in the line of secret duty. As a result, Alex’s loss is a real and motivating feature of the show. In Asia, both the first and second seasons are available on SonyLIV (in India) and AXN (in Southeast Asia).
