The Persuaders - The first time around for some.

JRR

A few years back Sky were re-running the well known TV series "The Persuaders", I caught a few of them quite early on Saturday mornings, missed some, then decided to purchase and watch the box set. I enjoyed the series and thought if you can steel yourself away from the present and relax into a 70's theme then this is good entertainment in the true Roger Moore and Tony Curtis style.

This could be an interesting thread to see what others make of this; The Saint as continually discussed is still popular, it was superb during its time and even today keeps your attention, if you like to escape from the modern for a while, I feel that The Persuaders may be worth another look just for the sheer audacious cheek of it.

In France, it has become a cult series. However, multiple airings in recent years have quite dulled its impact. But I still get a kick out of the "Kind Hearts and Coronets" tribute episode. And that main theme ! Barry at his best.

I loved that series.

There is already a thread on this.

Always nice to see appreciation for 'The Persuaders' , @JRR and a fine show it was too.
But as you can see from the link above as provided by @JWPepper, we already have a thread to cover it.
Please feel free to repost in the existing thread, and I'll close this one up.
Thanks.
