This fantastic series first aired in 1985 and ran to 1989 with 88 episodes. It starred British actor Edward Woodward as a former agent of an unnamed organisation who, free of charge, acts as a kind of vigilante/protector to those who have nowhere else to turn. It was set in New York.
I have fond memories of watching this series late in the evening in the 80's and later on repeat. It had some critisism because of the level of violence (towards scumbags, so that's OK!) and because of the vigilante nature of his activities. He was though, a good guy, fighting for natural justice when the law could not offer it.
The distinctive theme music was written and performed by Stuart Copeland from The Police.
Here is a great compilation of classic Edward Woodward moments! What a star!
