I just read that The Professionals, one of our much-loved British televisions series of the seventies, will be transposed into a modern day film (supposedly starring Jason Statham and Gerard Butler). I can remember Kongkong and I waiting every week for each new episode, and we were thrilled with the pace of the CI5 brand of crime-fighting. The plots were slightly more complicated that that of American TV shows, and the action was gritty, bordering brutal at times. And yet we loved Cowley, Doyle and Bodie--they truly made our day (or week, rather!)
