- AnecdotesDennis Waterman originally wanted Denholm Elliott to play the part of Arthur Daley. Executive Producer Verity Lambert disagreed.
- GaffesIn the opening titles for the Terry McCann episodes (Seasons 1-7) a sporty white Ford Escort with a blue stripe down the side is seen in the background. In a close-up shot of Terry looking at the Ford Capri he is about to buy, the Escort's window is up, but in a later shot where Arthur and Terry walk from the back of the Capri to admire it from a distance, the Escort's window is wound down.
- Versions alternativesThe title sequence originally had 'Euston Films presents' over the opening shot. Later prints of the same episodes did not have this. (Additionally, early episodes also began with the Thames Television ident sequence, which, particularly after Thames lost their broadcast franchise in 1992, have been dropped from most repeat runs).

Commentaire à la une
Gets better with every watch
Brilliant series spawned from the makers of 'the sweeney ' and featuring one of its stars Dennis Waterman in a role as a tough ex con/boxer earning his living as a minder.
The man he is protecting is a complete sleaze bag called Arthur Daley who doesn't appear to have much respect with the local underworld.
We are never told why he is held with such disdain throughout the series however his minded is very well respected in the local 'manor' .
The episodes generally feature a scam or con by Arthur with Terry as the main fall guy and given the amount of interest in the pair by the local constabulary makes one wonder did they have a grass very close to them, maybe Dave or Des from the Winchester.
Questions about grassing always would be raised about Daley given his lack of popularity throughout this series.
Great scenes throughoutmixing gritty violence with slapstick comedy works a treat however I still maintain that series 1-4 were the best of the many that were shown and 'Monday night fever ' from series 1 my overall favourite .
Loads of scenes of grimy rain sodden London streets and low level boozers full of spivs and strippers , scrapyards and council tower blocks .
It really timelines late 70s early 80s London and never fails to entertain Even today.
Truly great television
