'The Professionals'... Keep the feel of the original, and have it similar to a mix of Spooks, and Strikeback...
'The Equaliser' ......... Brilliant show, but I re kong with the right actor, it could be pulled off.
'Bonanza'.................. Like Deadwood, but without the word .


Anymore for any more?

They did try remaking The Professionals a few years back.... Didn't work IMHO

Same with Minder.... Just didn't cut it for me.

What to remake?

Would be interested to see a modern take on "Boys from the Black Stuff"

CHiP's was brilliant, and so gay. What about that crappy Irwin Allen show, Lost in Space. That could be quite cool.

Tripods was awesome. I read the book, and watched the TV show, only for them to not bother with the last book, if memory serves me. Another, how about Chocky?

Randall and Hopkirk Deceased - The Reeves & Mortimer remake was pretty good, I thought.

How about The "New" New Avengers?

Patrick Stewart as New Steed, driving a Bentley Turbo R
Martine McCutcheon as New Purdey, driving a Ginetta G33
Rupert Penry-Jones as New Gambit, driving a TVR T350C

Theres a ChiPs remake in pre production, or it was a while ago.

What about The Fall Guy, used to love that when I was a kid!

That would work. In fact he could probably re-make the Equalizer now Ewar Woowar isn't available.

Not sure about Martine Escutcheon
