Who would you pick to play these three then?

The Professionals set to abseil into cinema ? The Register

Arse-kicking CI5 operatives Bodie and Doyle are to be brought out of retirement for a big-screen version of The Professionals.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lionsgate UK has acquired the rights to adapt the TV series for cinema, some 28 years after the last of 57 episodes aired on London Weekend Television.

George Cowley - Liam Neeson

I'd choose three septics with no acting skills who can put on a terrible fake cockanese accent.

I should be in Hollywood.

[PRC1964]

No one. Why can't they just leave it alone and come up with a new idea?

[VectraMan]

Martin Shaw and Lewis Collins are still alive, aren't they? Couldn't be any worse.

Whatever happened to The New Professionals series from a few years ago?

Tim Roth.

Bodie. Mrs Doyle. Bound to be a winner.

Bodie: "Debbie, love. You're as miserable as Morrissey eating Kentucky Fried Chicken at an animal rights festival."

Mrs Doyle: " You'll have some tea... are you sure you don't want any? Aw go on, you'll have some. Go on go on go on go on go on go on go on go on GO ON!"

[Churchill]

Nah.

Sylvester Stallone.
<sh!t Actor>


Or Clint Eastwood.
<too Old>

See above

If you had to chose from CUK members, who would you pick?

I'm going with Suityou & Wilmslow in a faintly camp slapstick remake. SG can play Cowley as a bumbling cretin running operations from his garden shed.

Bodie - Rhys Ifans
Doyle - Bill Bailey
Cowley - Alan Carr


Sorted!!
