Please note this is a region 2 DVD & will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play Long-awaited long-overdue The Professionals as you have never seen them before Bodie & Doyle need little by way of introduction but if the series had at all escaped you since its debut in 1977 their boss George Cowley head of CI5 couldn&t put it more succinctly than his opening gambit "anarchy acts of terror crimes against the public To combat it I&ve got special men experts from the army the police from every service These are The Professionals" Featuring the perfect ensemble cast of Martin Shaw Gordon Jackson (completely against type here) & the much-missed Lewis Collins the series ran for 57 action-packed episodes & made an immediate impact on British & then international audiences which has sustained more than 35 years But the series has never looked this good Painstakingly restored from the camera-original negatives the series could have been made yesterday No matter how many times you have seen The Professionals this is a new experience like seeing it for the first time
