The ''Raffles'' stories have been adapted for various media. Six ''Raffles'' films came out between 1917 and 1939; the best remembered is probably the 1939 version that featured Creator/DavidNiven and Creator/OliviaDeHavilland, directed by Sam Wood. It was one of Niven's first starring roles. There's also the 1930 one with Creator/RonaldColman and Creator/KayFrancis. In 1975, there was a British made-for-TV movie which led to a ''Raffles'' television series. In addition, there was a BBC Radio 4 series broadcast from 1985 to 1993. Viz comic parodied him as ''RafflesGentlemanThug''
