Art & Hue presents 1970s Cops http://artandhue.com/cops Stylish pop art illustrations of iconic Seventies police detectives, available in three sizes and 25 colour options, including Lewis Collins. Fast talking, thinking, and driving, 1970s cops leapt into action at a moment’s notice, catching bad guys unawares and foiling plots with skidding cars and a cocky swagger. Martin Shaw attended the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and has tread the boards in many productions, including lauded performances in “Look Back in Anger” and “A Streetcar Named Desire”. Even though Martin Shaw has steely blue eyes, the colouring of “The Professionals” varied their appearance from green to hazel to brown – perhaps it was the film stock or the Seventies when everything seemed to be brown, from fashions to interiors. Whilst Lewis Collins found it hard to shake off the shadow of Bodie, Martin Shaw continued to have a varied career after The Professionals came to an end. Acting talent not withstanding, it may have helped to cut off the curly perm and look completely different for further acting roles. With regular credits to his name, it’s good to see that some of his well-known and long-running roles are also police or law based. He was a Chief Constable in “The Chief”, the title role in “Inspector George Gently”, and graduated to the law courts in “Judge John Deed”. The ongoing popularity and success of “The Professionals” is a testament to the actor and the powerful yet natural screen partnership with Lewis Collins. THE PROFESSIONALS Hot on the heels of “The New Avengers”, which starred Patrick Macnee and Joanna Lumley, the same creative and production team of Brian Clemens and Albert Fennell created “The Professionals”. #TheProfessionals #LewisCollins #MartinShaw #GordonJackson #Seventies #Cops #CultTV #RayDoyle #WilliamBodie #BodieAndDoyle #interiorinspo #interiors123 #interiors #homedecor #thehappynow #paradiseofminimal #nothingisordinary #Retro https://www.instagram.com/p/BpjiekZgPWd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13fux2cwmfhhr

Art & Hue presents 1970s Cops http://artandhue.com/cops Stylish pop art illustrations of iconic Seventies police detectives, available in three sizes and 25 colour options, including Lewis Collins. Fast talking, thinking, and driving, 1970s cops leapt into action at a moment’s notice, catching bad guys unawares and foiling plots with skidding cars and a cocky swagger. With a natural swagger and easy charisma, at one point Collins was widely tipped to replace Roger Moore as James Bond. It does seem that the tonal shift of “For Your Eyes Only” was written with Lewis in mind, but Collins was not cast as 007 and instead went on to film “Who Dares Wins”, a successful action film which co-starred Edward Woodward. Famous as Willian Bodie in “The Professionals”, it seems appropriate that Lewis Collins’ first and last credits were in police dramas. Collins’ first appearance was in “Z Cars” in 1974 and his final acting role was in “The Bill” in 2002, both long-running British police serials. Collins also played a Police Constable in “Crown Court”. Before “The New Avengers”, Collins worked with Joanna Lumley in “The Cuckoo Waltz”, the 1970s sitcom in which he played a lodger. In 1988, Collins worked with Michael Caine in “Jack the Ripper” as another policeman, Sergeant Godley, and later appeared in a series of “Cluedo”, but acting work didn’t come easy for some reason. A reboot in 1997 called “CI5:The New Professionals” almost cast Lewis as the head of the organisation, a role similar to Gordon Jackson’s George Cowley, but the part eventually went to Edward Woodward. Retiring from acting, Lewis moved to America but returned to England before his passing in 2013. An underused actor whose innate talent never seemed to escape the shadow of Bodie, the ongoing popularity and success of “The Professionals” is a testament to the actor and his powerful yet natural screen partnership with Martin Shaw. #TheProfessionals #LewisCollins #MartinShaw #GordonJackson #Seventies #Cops #CultTV #RayDoyle #WilliamBodie #BodieAndDoyle #interiorinspo #interiors123 #interiors #homedecor #thehappynow #paradiseofminimal #nothingisordinary #Retro https://www.instagram.com/p/BpgtWYSgTZX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wst1hzccxu6s
