    If there was a highlight real of my personal favourite TV detective shows over the last 45 years, then The Professionals would be in the top 3. It was simply class.

      That's why he failed his James Bond audition. They said he was too aggressive. Ironically that's closer to Daniel Craig today.

    Great double act from Bodie and Doyle, with head Cowley barking the orders. Loved it when it was first aired late 70's and it became favourite 'cop' show, even more than what the U.S were offering, although good too. It certainly gave a run for their money.

      It was a fantastic piece of cinematography. An unforgettable opening. It was so clever to momentarily make the reflected scene look like the actual scene (a conventional city setting shot) and then shock by driving through it.

    I was at Secondary School when the first series of The Professionals started on ITV, or STV in Scotland.
    When it came to the end of the School week, you knew it was going to be a good night on Friday, if the Professionals were on!!
    Proper entertainment. Halcyon days.

    The sequel series with Edward Woodward is more of a show for fans of Woodward/Callan/Equalizer than an effective sequel to this. But it's fun and does have the cool theme music. (But skip episode one, which is a bit of an editing disaster in parts).

      It's terrible and I was there for the filming of a number of episodes. Laurie Johnson re-recorded his theme at the last minute and replaced the version the new composers had created as he was exec producer.. At least I got to chat to Sidney Hayers and Peter Brayham before they passed away.

    Those first 12 seconds of the starting theme and the crashing through that glass, Tops almost all other starting sequences. 70s & 80s some superb theme tunes, M.Vice, H-50 etc. Brit Theme tunes were rubbish except this one.
