Detective Inspector Jack Regan and Detective Sergeant George Carter are members of the UK Metropolitan Police's elite Flying Squad - The Sweeney. They get to deal with the trickiest cases and toughest criminals. To succeed in this job Regan, Carter and their crew need to be ultra-tough themselves, and they are.
A classic police series from the 70s. A great mix of procedural police work, action scenes and intrigue with a decent amount of banter and humour thrown in. Highly original plots that are quite different from episode to episode.
Great work by John Thaw and Dennis Waterman as Regan and Carter respectively. One of the most iconic and enduring duos in TV history. Good supporting cast with Garfield Morgan as the dour DCI Haskins, their boss, to the fore.
Amazingly, the show got better and better as it went on. Season 4, the final season, was the peak with the banter and humour being dialled up to wonderful effect.
