Sergeant George Dixon a massive omission imo. Played by Jack Warner, I was told he broke the law himself a few years later, worked for FIFA and was investigated and sacked for fiddling, same as all fifa officials

The Fugitive with David Jansen in the 60s has never been bettered. Watched by over half the nation.
|
|
By:
The Fugitive was brilliant and still well worth a watch. David Jansen later had a good detective series which many have forgot. It was called Harry O.

Dennis Weaver as McCloud was very good and Cagney & Lacey was ok. Dennis Weaver was a very good actor as well, he was in Steven Speilbergs first ever film. Duel |
|
By:
Duel was a classic thriller dambuster. Haven`t seen it for years. Will need to look it out now that you have reminded me of it. Cheers!

Going a bit of track here but Dial M For Murder was a brilliant crime thriller. Hitchcock was a master of suspense. Came from Leytonstone, I think.

Mannix and Barnaby Jones were another two good ones. Buddy Ebsen (Jed Clampett) was great as BJ. I met him once. He was about 7ft tall and had two beautiful daughters. Nice family they were. He died in 2003 aged 95.

Serpico.
|
|
By:
Serpico, great film, Pacino was brilliant.
|
|
By:
I think I read that Inman turned down the role for fear of being typecast.
|
|
By:
Serpico was a brave man and a man of scruples who stood up against the corruption in N.Y. Police Department. Pacino was indeed brilliant in the part.
|

By:
The Saint was very good private detective series.
As was The Baron with Steve Forest playing the antique dealer turned private detective. |
