THE PROFESSIONALS – Stake Out – 1978
This is episode ten of the 1977 to 1983, UK, action-crime series, THE PROFESSIONALS. Gordon Jackson is in charge of CI-5, a group of men drawn from the SAS, Police and other law enforcement agencies. Their mandate is to stop acts of terrorism and threats against the UK.
A CI-5 agent, Andy Bradford is working undercover at a bowling alley. He is keeping an eye on a possible drug importation link. What he stumbles on is far more dangerous. A group of white supremacists is annoyed with the current immigration policies of the government. They plan on setting off a couple of massive "dirty" bombs in a section of London.
Fraser calls Jackson to set up a meet but is killed before he can make it. Jackson sends Lewis Collins and Martin Shaw to the same bowling alley for a look see. They play a few games, hit on some women and finally catch a break. They catch several of the nasty types preparing to assemble the last of the bombs.
A rather vigorous round of third degree soon has the location of the one completed bomb. Now it is a race against the clock to disarm the thing. Shaw is needed to help with the bomb disarming bit. The beast has its teeth pulled with seconds to spare and London is saved.
Good episode. (color)
