THE NOT-SO-PROFESSIONALS
MAD UK #232, August 1981
w: Neil Bailey
a: David Stoten
There was also an American movie in the 60s of the same name, completely different, also parodied by MAD
Crime series about agents William Bodie (Lewis Collins) and Ray Doyle (Martin Shaw) that worked for an agency called “Criminal Intelligence 5”, or CI5, under the supervision of George Cowley (Gordon Jackson). Sort of a British version of Starsky and Hutch.
There are many refernces to British personalities and events that this ugly American doesn't get. It was made by London Weekend Television.
Brian Clemens, the show's creator, is the victim in the next to last panel and the people at the end are The Avengers, his previous series.
