  Callan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Callan is one of the largest towns in County Kilkenny in the Republic of Ireland.
Situated 10 miles south of Kilkenny on the N76 road to Clonmel (recently bypassed by the route), it forms the border with Tipperary South and Kilkenny.
Callan is the birth place of some famous people, namely Edmund Ignatius Rice, founder of the Irish Christian Brothers, and James Hoban, who designed the White House in the United States.

 BBC - h2g2 - 'Callan' - the TV Series - A4609749
Callan is himself a trained locksmith and is adept at breaking and entering, but he still prefers to use Lonely when he can; a lifetime of thievery has made Lonely the perfect stooge for breaking into the homes of targets without leaving any signs of entry.
With that kind of pressure, Callan was given a reprieve and Thames began to assemble the cast for their own colour series (it's this first colour run that's been given a DVD release in the UK, somewhat misleadingly billed as the first series).
Callan was played by Edward Woodward, a familiar face to British TV viewers though not to a degree that would get in the way of the rather anonymous aspect of the character.

 Callan (1974)
One of the few semi-constants in the show was Lonely — he was Callan's contact with the criminal underworld, perpetually afraid, and forever smelly (he had a nervous condition that gave him horrible BO when scared, and that was most of the time).
This is a movie made a couple of years after the TV series was over.
Callan is summoned to see Hunter (still in the scrap metal yard), and offered a chance to re-join The Section.
