C.A.T.S Eyes First Series titles

from the episode "Frightmare"

The series was a spin-off from The Gentle Touch and saw Jill Gascoine reprise her role as Det. Insp. Maggie Forbes, having left the police force and joined a private detective agency that is actually a front for a Home Office team called C.A.T.S. (Covert Activities Thames Section).

The team also comprised refined Oxford graduate Pru Standfast (Rosalyn Landor) and computer expert Frederica "Fred" Smith (Leslie Ash). Nigel Beaumont (Don Warrington) was the "man from the ministry" overseeing their activities. For the second series, Pru had left the team and was replaced by Tessa Robinson (Tracy Louise Ward).

Where's the TVS ident?

[EEWW2006]

@ttrjw Because this recording came from "the family channel"

[brybish]

not really we tryed not to disrupt things to much we had traffic control and most people were happy to go along with what was going on,

this was the 80,s.then there was a pride in having a regional TV company and people were a lot more helpful then.now i don't know.i was made redundant in 92 when meridian got the franchise for ITV in the south.

it is great that you show an interest in this old program will it ever get to DVD who knows.i hope so.

[EEWW2006]

Such a shame that TVS lost the franchise..

CATS was a very good show, and still had legs even in the last series...

Could this title sequence *be* any more 1985? ;) This music is credited to John Kongas ('Step On'?) in all its FM-synthesis glory. Agreed that the later series' title music was way better though.

[EEWW2006]

I much prefer the 1st series music to the latter version.. the full length 3 1/2 minute kongos track is very nice

[toptenaddict]

At first, i thought this was CATS Eyes, the BBC schools programme which featured Rowland Rivron, which the person below me, was probably referring to.

Jill Gasgoine = still the hottest of the 3 ladies in this show.

I would give her my loving first, perhaps having a go with the Redhead just for a bit of strange.

Even before the trout pout I do not fancy Leslie Ash but might have a go if drunk, only if Jill & the redhead were not up for it.

I remember watching this at school just before we broke up for a holiday. Brilliant, thanks for uploading

Rosalyn Landor was probably the most beatiful actress to appear on British TV at any point during the big hair 80's.

She had the acting skills of a cucumber - but that didn't matter.

The scripts were all bad enough to cover for her.

How come TV shows like this never end on the likes of UK gold and the likes? they just repeat the same old tat! I forgot about this show until i was searching another oldie "Vegas" which i have never seen since it was on originally. There are a lot of shows out there I have never seen since they were on first time around which is a shame really! they deserve to be shown again.

[vania1013]

[MYBIGKINDHEART]
