Starring: Gordon Jackson, Lewis Collins, Martin Shaw
Continuity mistake: In the boat scenes, the blood initially visible on Bodie's bandage later inexplicably disappears.
Other mistake: When Bodie, Julie and Myer reach the vicarage, an editing blunder seems to show the door opening twice.
Continuity mistake: During the car chase scene, the red Audi very briefly becomes left-hand drive. Obviously the film got accidentally reversed for that shot, and no-one noticed the error.
Private Madness, Public Danger - S1-E1
Trivia: "Private Madness Public Danger" was the first ever episode of the Professionals to be broadcast. However, it was the sixth episode to be made, and was originally to have been the SECOND episode to be broadcast. Throughout the entire six year life of the series (December 1977 to February 1983) the order the episodes were made bore little resemblance to when they were first shown. Some episodes were left "on the shelf" for up to two years before being shown.
