In 1972

....a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

Did you not detect the subtle undertones of irony within my post miss :)

What amazed me was how many shots were fired in each episode......and nobody ever got killed!

[bobjugs12]

Wrong tth, two people died in the A Team (One was the guy responsible for hunting them, and the other I can't remember)

Well you've just given me a great idea for entertaining the children whilst their father drives around the countryside with a tall leggy blond in a convertible before taking her for a slap up lunch. Honestly, the things the poor guy has to do to try and get a job!!!!

Barmaid, download some episodes, then get them out in the garden and encourage them to build a tank out of whatever they can find int the shed

lol Bob. I think taking them to the pictures is easier (and far less dangerous)!

Just reminds me of my son too Poodi. He play the theme tune on the organ at a big music concert and rehearsed it every day for months. The theme is imprinted on my brain. He must have been about 7 or 8.

Yeah lottie my sons were about 6 and 8 back then,the youngest had a very fertile imagination back then...

The black van is still here in a huge box of vehicles, with Knight Rider, Back to the Future cars, etc. etc.!

bobjugs12, wow, 2 people!!! Doesn't say much for the teams shooting ability though ;-)

[bobjugs12]

Lotty, i'm on my way round to yours. I'll swap you my car for your box of cars!!!

[bobjugs12]

TTH, they were peace-loving you see

[LoftyLottie]

LOL Bob. Every car is wrapped up in newspaper lovingly. It's about time the box went off to my son's house, together with the micro machines and Lego, Scaletrix and the wooden brio train set!! But then I couldn't play with them!!
