Series about two detectives in London, Terry McCann (Dennis Waterman) and Arthur Daley (George Cole). Like most duos, one is the prim and proper by-the book one, and the other is the sleazy ne'er-do-well. Dennis Waterman also sang the theme, being a professional singer as well. He had been in a series called The Sweeney, and his co-stars make an appearance in this splash panel. There are also appearances by John Steed and Emma Peel of The Avengers, Starsky and Hutch, Kojak, Columbo, and Cannon, Eddie Shoestring, and Bergerac.

One of Terry's girlfriends was a stripper (Diana Malin).

Dave Harris (Glynn Edwards) was a bar owner. They knew a lot of shady characters with various nicknames.

Inspector Rycott (Peter Childs) was one of their rivals from the police.
