More on The Protectors
Description from Wikipedia:
The Protectors was a British television series, an action thriller created by Gerry Anderson - his second TV series using live actors as opposed to animated puppets. It is also, to date, the only Gerry Anderson-produced television series that was not of the fantasy or science fiction genres. It was produced by Lew Grade's ITC Entertainment production company. According to Anderson, the show's format was outlined in a brief note that Grade gave him, and he was then given a free hand to develop it, although Grade ultimately cast two of the main actors himself.
The Protectors first aired in 1972 and 1973, and ran to 52 episodes over two series, each 25 minutes long - making it one of the last series of this type to be produced in a half-hour format. It starred Robert Vaughn (The Man from U.N.C.L.E.) as Harry Rule, Nyree Dawn Porter (The Forsyte Saga) as the Contessa Caroline di Contini, and Tony Anholt (Space: 1999, Howard's Way) as Paul Buchet.
The show is currently repeated in the UK on ITV4.
The three were international private detectives/troubleshooters who belonged to an organization called The Protectors. The format of the series allowed for occasional episodes in which not all of the main actors appear, including at least one episode in which Vaughn's character is absent. For reasons not explained in the show, these characters were all very wealthy and drove exotic cars of the era, like the Citroën SM and Jensen Interceptor.
Despite not featuring puppets or any real science fiction elements, The Protectors became one of Anderson's most popular productions, easily winning a renewal for a second season, and a third was in the planning stages when the show's major sponsor pulled out, forcing its cancellation.
