这是一部经典的间谍动作片，即使是现在重新欣赏，仍然能获得很大乐趣。这部电视剧讲述英国军情五处（CI5）特工鲍迪(Bodie)、道尔(Doyle)，在考雷(Cowley)的领导下，执行一项又一项复杂而艰巨的任务，既有国内的悍匪，也有国外的间谍，都是和国家的安全相关的重大任务。该剧故事情节紧凑，人物行事乾净利落，能够从蛛丝马迹中找到线索、直击目标，交火中往往一枪致命，非常精彩。该剧共拍摄四季，播出时按五季播出。全剧共57集，国内曾在80年代末引进过，播放了其中的54集，其中三位主角分别由邹赫威、徐涛和齐杰配音。在1998年，本剧开拍了续集共一季13集，剧中主角此时变为四人——加入了一位女性成员，同时活动范围也从伦敦扩大到世界各地。

This series chronicled the lives of Bodie and Doyle, top agents for Britain's CI5 (Criminal Intelligence 5), and their controller, George Cowley. The mandate of CI5 was to fight terrorism and similar high-profile crimes. Cowley, a hard ex-MI5 operative, hand-picked each of his men. Bodie was a cynical ex-SAS paratrooper and mercenary whose nature ran to controlled violence, while his partner, Doyle, came to CI5 from the regular police force, and was more of an open minded liberal. Their relationship was often contentious, but they were the top men in their field, and the ones to whom Cowley always assigned to the toughest cases.

Barker, a deranged, embittered old lag and his young accomplice Stacey - whom he disguises as a female hostage - dig in on a warehouse roof, pointing their machine-gun at a hospital ward and threatening to kill the patients unless they are given a million pounds. Bodie and ace climber Murphy scale a factory chimney to get height on them but almost scupper the operation. Doyle, however, after a visit to Stacey's girlfriend, has a better plan.

After a bomb goes off in the CI5 building and an operative is killed, Cowley gets a sinister phone call to say there will be more deaths, which there are, including an attempt to murder Bodie. Through an informant a man named Wakeman is incriminated - but Cowley swears that he killed him years earlier. Clearly an old associate of Wakeman is out for revenge, leading Cowley and the boys to a caravan primed with explosives.

Whilst Doyle is on a date with Kathie Mason his flat is robbed and a powerful laser gun which he was given to test is stolen. After an attempt to kill him, he and Bodie make inquiries as to who would have stolen the gun and Maurice, one of their informants, is shot dead with it. Another colleague is taken prisoner as bait to flush Doyle out in the open by the thief, Preston, a disgraced ex-cop sent to prison on Doyle's evidence and now after revenge. But who knew Doyle's routine that well that he - or she - was able to tell Preston about the gun?
