My favorite episode where the guy robs the security van then throws the bag of money over the fence. He robbed the money so the child could have a life saving operation.... anyone know the name of that episode?
Jack Regan was at least a real cop. Not like the social engineers of today who will send dumb-arse women cops to break up a pub brawl (not!) When the shit hits the fan send the REAL police. That goes for the fire dept as well! Hell, lets include the armed forces and ambulance service for completion.
A retro thing that people used to try and use before these new fangled devices came about.
It consisted of putting your finger in a hole corresponding with a number and moving it around using different numbers... then watching a 10 Pence peice go down a slot and come out of the bottom into a little silver tray called "Reject Coins" , then do it again.
You could use them for textinging in a basic way, you used a magic marker or an aerosol spray can
I somehwat agree, superretrochick1; in fact, I think this music would be a good soundtrack to my passing/ funeral rites (although that obviously will not happen for decades!)
Great stuff ! That music would definitely get me interested in seeing that program. Closing track feels like we can go home now, case closed, (till next week ) .Very 70s
I never heard this lengthened version before until now,, Brilliant and the stills you trew in are fantastic, exellent all round,, defo saving to my favourites.
cheers mate , blinding , i see a lot of the filming was in wandsworth,hammersmith,and where i live in tooting south london ,i have seen a picture of carter crossing the road at tooting bec station , what diamonds the boys were ,and old frank haskins what a job keeping them in tow ,,thanks again
It was long time that I was looking for this music.... thanks for sharing it!

This is great fivestring, thank you for uploading. I'm sure you've been asked but where did you get this full length version?
Somehow I don't think my Ford Focus estate will have such a cult following in 30 years time that the Mk 1 Granada/Consul has now!

This was my fav TV show when I was a child. Here in Italy it was called "L'Ispettore Regan"...
I was crazy about Jack Regan... Now I'm mad about Gene Hunt!

There is a similarity isn't there.
I think Gene will be treated with the same regard as Jack in the future.
