Blast from the past for Belgian viewers

Pretty interesting series from the early 70's about a superhero of sorts, called "The Cat". In his costume and mask he resembles Batman, but his foes are of a different kind. Our hero is what would later probably be called an ecoterrorist, infiltrating and sabotaging a company that clearly is polluting the environment.

His actions do not harm anyone - as a matter of fact he gains a lot of friends as the series proceeds - and eventually even gains sympathy from the unlikeliest of people.

A great series for its time, supposedly situated in Flanders, but in actuality filmed on location in the south of France, lending a kind of surreal quality to the series to those who saw and enjoyed it.
