I remember VERY little about this programme, i watched it in the early 90's i think.
At the end of the opening credits there is an image of the main character ( a man) standing/ leaning in a huge clock face, it looks like the big ben or something like that. He's wearing black clothes, maybe shiny black leather pants? I think it may have been based on a book because i remember seeing a similar image on the cover of a book.
I can't really even remember what it was about, but i don't think it lasted very long, which is why i think it could have been a mini series.

If anyone can help, it would be great
