After Public Madness, Private Danger, the first edition of The Professionals, was aired on Friday, December 30 in 1977, British television would never be the same again.

Reusable supporting actors.
Pamela Stephenson in 3, Rogue (1978) as Maggie Briggs, Stake Out (1978) as Attractive Blonde and in Old Dog with New Tricks (1978) as Nurse Emma Bolding
Carol Royle in A Stirring of Dust (1978) as Helen Pierce and in Dead Reckoning (1979) as Anna Batak.
Alan Tilvern in Killer with a Long Arm (1978) as Tarkos and coincidently in Dead Reckoning (1979) as the real Stefan Batak.
Barry Stanton in Spy Probe (1982) as Ferris and in the The Madness of Mickey Hamilton (1979) as Frank.
Pat Gorman was in 5 episodes as 5 different characters.
Many many more, look at the actors who were in 2 or 3 episodes and go to their own pages to see - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075561/fullcredits?re...
Except Diana Weston, she was Ruth in 3 episodes. But she was also reused in the Sweeney, TV series and one of the films. Just like almost all the others in the Professionals
If you binge watch The Professionals it can get quite confusing.

That's a brilliant find. https://twitter.com/CI5BDC/status/9474934138799390...
Intersesting shots of the film Villain. I went off to Google that but hit the TV show Villains.
Also from the early 70s, a few familiar faces including Martin Shaw.
I don't remember & have not seen either of them.
My intake of Minder, Sweeney & Professionals has peaked in the last week because manflu. Every cloud.
