The character of Al Capone only appeared in the two part pilot for The Untouchables and in the two-part Season Two episode entitled The Big Train. He was mentioned in numerous other episodes but only appeared in the aforementioned.

Yes, But they referred to him mostly as just "Al". Not "Al Capone".

Sorry, but "Al" was mentioned by his last name on numerous occasions throughout the course of the series' run. It was usually Frank Nitti or some other gangster who referred to Capone as "Al" because, after all, they were on a first-name basis with the man.

Just watched "THE SCARFACE MOB". In there's he's also called "Snorky", and, "The Big Fella" (the same nickname used for the main villain in THE SAINT IN NEW YORK).
