Bodie - Roy Keane
Doyle - Michael Flatley

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

I should be in Hollywood.

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.
