Cork Bullets

[Bazile]

Just watching an episode of that old series ,the professionals

Bullets peppering the door of a car , however none of the bullets seem to penetrate the door and hit bodie who is behind the door

Lol , the reality of make believe , eh ?

[kvalidir]

The Professionals, not TV's finest hour tbh :)

[Bazile]

Says who ?

[douglas9401]

The Philistines, Baz, the Philistines.

That and the Sweeney were one of the first programmes to use ‘product placement’. All Ford motors.

[Old_Geezer]

Must have been a bullet proof car.

Watching the re-runs of these old seventies series, you realise just how much people smoked back then!


Reagan was as likely to ask his driver to stop for him to pick up a pack of twenty, as he was to advise George that their latest surveillance had 'form all over the manor!!!'.

I love The Sweeney, was watching that the other day, I've watched a lot of seventies stuff and that's my favourite cop show.

[andy-hughes]

Watch 'im George, ee's got a shootahhh!!!!

[Bazile]

OG - no they weren't bullet proof cars

[Bazile]

Reminds me of that series with George Peppard -the A team - machine guns shooting bullets everywhere , but no one ever got killed

[douglas9401]

From memory, not rust-proof either. :-)

[Bazile]

Oh and they would go into a barn with a screwdriver / soldering iron and some scrap metal and emerge with a Tank - lol

[goodgoalie]

Just for you, kval:

[tonyav]

It's like those old Western movies where the cow boys get shot either with a gun or by a injun arrow and they don't bleed.

[sanmac]

How about tham thar 6 shooters that must have amazingly made their own ammunition...They never ran out of bullets.

[Bazile]

Yes tonyav
They would break off the body of the arrow sticking out of their chest and carry on as normal :-)
