To the more mature posters on here, growing up what was your favourite, The Champions, Randall & Hopkirk, or the Persuaders

I was always more of a man of this

They were all after my time.

If anyone is interested, a few months ago Dempsey and Makepeace appeared in a public library near me to promote reading for kids. They are apparently happily married and living in Balham.

The Avengers Diana Rigg then Linda Thorsen.

Liked them all but The Champions shaded it, I guess, mainly because of the lovely Miss Bastedo, my very first crush.

Once I grew up a bit I was always a 6 foot tall blond type of bloke. For the ladies I fancied.

So 7 of 9 does it for me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_of_Nine#/media/File:SevenofNine.jpg

However when I was a kid one of my fantasy ladies was Susan Stranks from Magpie: https://www.shutterstock.com/es/edi...enter-of-television-programme-magpie-1605178a

If I had to choose one of those shows it would be R&H.

 

[ThePrisoner]

I was a prisoner fan, however it was way before my time.
Im surprised they have not revamped it and made it into a blockbuster american series.
Great story

The Prisoner was my number 1 - when it was first on I was very young but the orange ballon still managed to appeared in some my bad dreams (in black and white). C4 repeated it in 1983/4 and I then appreciated how good it was and that the guard balloons were orange.

But I also enjoyed the others mentioned.

The Avengers
Department S
Callan
Public Eye.

All had belting themes too.

I'm certain Alexandra Bastedo visited the area many years ago, may be grey matter but I remember seeing her not sure where though.

I can vaguely recall seeing her in person at a department store in Stockton, early 70's , but I was far too young to really appreciate the experience.

Three outstanding theme tunes there.
