Anarchy, acts of terror, crimes against the public. To combat it, I’ve got special men. Experts from the army, police, from every service. These are the professionals.
Gordon Jackson as George Cowley, in the original narration during the opening titles of The Professionals

Dreifachgängers Ever notice how some people look the same on The Professionals? Takapuna actress Pamela Stephenson (Mrs Billy Connolly) appears three times in three different roles in two seasons, while Jordanian actor Nadim Sawalha played various Arabs, as he seemed to do in every British show in the 1970s and 1980s.

You get the feeling they aren’t speaking to each other here.

Escorts Unlimited This is ‘Blind Run’. The lads are just being alert, especially with so many villains driving cars from the Ford press fleet.

Now what is Murph looking at?

‘Black Out’ Probably the helicopter that’s going to block the missile. What’s more curious are the CI5 badges. Like anyone’s going to believe they’re authoritative. Just because it’s now the 1980s, the art department thinks it can pull a fast turn-of-the-decade gag.
