"San Francisco - a U.S. city favourite of mine, if not one of the greatest cities in the world - also offered me a seminal moment in my early career. After guest starring in the television series, The Streets Of San Francisco (1972) (Karl Malden and Michael Douglas), Clint Eastwood, who saw the episode, offered me the role of 'Davis' in the second of the Dirty Harry films, Magnum Force (1973). Not only would that film mark a first 'big' break, Magnum Force would eventually lead to an offer from Aaron Spelling to do the role of Hutch in Starsky And Hutch.
