Old TV Programmes

[Boody]

There was a programme with Edward Woodward - he played the leader of a set of rebels in a British Police State. Couldn't tell you what it was called but I seem to remember thinking it was brill.

......1990 it was called apparently - a "futuristic" thriller, which I guess it was in 1977...

Bonanza......loved the theme song and opening credits.

hey, does anyone remember a real dodgy american tv show from the mid 80's (i think) called 'COP ROCK'. it was like Hill Street Blues but all of a sudden....people would just start singing...absolutely bizarre.

Don't remember that one ( actually Googled it to make sure you didn't 'dream' it.)

Sounds good, though.

How about 'The Cuckoo Waltz' with Lewis Collins, Diane Keen and some other guy who didn't go on to bigger things?

go onto youtube and type in 'cop rock tv series'....there's clips....you won't be disappointed...it's fkn shite

see that guy from the cuckoo waltz, 70's sitcom, not Lewis Collins (RIP) but the other guy....i'm sure he's in a fairly recent film called The Damned United. could be mistaken but it's worth checking.

Series about rival gangs set in Birmingham, the second series became increasingly bizarre. Something else that never gets a re-run unfortunately.
