The Sandbaggers - Neil Burnside.
As Director of Operations of SIS and a former Sandbagger, Burnside is a career intelligence officer — devious and manipulative and by turns also dour, brusque, aggressive and independent-minded.

| | | | The Sandbaggers - Sir James Greenley: Encyclopedia II - The Sandbaggers - Episodes Each of the 20 episodes of The Sandbaggers runs just under 50 minutes without commercials. Each episode did, however, originally air with commercial breaks which divided the episode into three acts. ITV, unlike the BBC, is a commercial enterprise.
Animated bumpers similar to the end credits lead into and out of the commercial breaks. They read: "End of Part One," "Part Two," "End of Part Two," and "Part Three." These bumpers have been edited out of the DVD releases but are inta ...
