Somebody's Stolen Our Russian Spy

Somebody's Stolen Our Russian Spy or O.K. Yevtushenko (the film shot the same year as O.K. Connery) is a 1967 Spanish/British international co-production Eurospy film shot in Spain and Portugal. The film was co-produced by James Ward and directed, co-written and co-produced by José Luis Madrid. The film stars Tom Adams in his third and final appearance as British secret agent Charles Vine.[2] The film was shot in Spain instead of the usual UK location. When Embassy Pictures chose not to release it, the film languished in a film laboratory until 1976.[3]
