Knife Edge was a British drama, crime, and thriller TV series that aired in 1981. It featured a suspenseful story each week, often adapting classic thrillers into two-hour dramas. Hosted by TV personality John McCririck, the series showcased both up-and-coming and veteran actors, with each episode beginning with an introduction from McCririck about the author and cast involved.

The series included adaptations of novels, such as a suspense story based on William Nolan's 'Death is for Losers', and concluded with a crime thriller from Jody McBride about a man seeking justice for his wife's murder. The episodes starred actors like Reece Dinsdale and a young Liam Neeson, who appeared in the second episode playing Charlie in 'Charlie Was a Rich Man'. The show was a collection of self-contained stories, each with its own cast and plot, and was notable for its dramatic adaptations of popular suspense literature.
