Been binge watching the sweeny for the last few hours.

Will never get board of this series unlike the beep we have today, once I've watched all these I'll start watching this

Have too admit not really watched these but will soon as I finish the series of sweeny.

I have too admit I'm really happy I didn't realise how close I am too the mark but I'm getting there been offered 3 Granada's today after my post on the owners club.

I thought it was going too be well over £15000 or more but if I carry on Might very well be owning one before xmas or after.

I'm so close I can taste the Granada petrol fumes.

I like watching the professionals too Dave, the old 80s Fords along with Dolomite Sprint TR7 and Rover P6 and SD1s. Class.

I was watching line of duty a couple of weeks ago, the 2 main characters were on their radios talking to each other using the call signs three seven and four five......... Jed mercurio was obviously a Professionals fan in his younger days.

Edit - it seems that I wasn't the only one to notice it

The police back then were real coppers.

No bull.
No beeping about.

Proper Policing which is what's lacking these days.

Both are on TV. The signature tune from the Sweeny is timeless, I love it.
Never knew the professionals drive a TR7.
