One of the first slash couples I shipped was Bodie and Doyle.
It is has come to my attention that people outside the UK and Australia will have no idea who I’m talking about.
It’s a 1970’s show called “The Professionals,” and Bodie and Doyle are two sort of special agents for a spy type division. Like sort of working class James Bonds. Lol!
It was the 70’s so of course they try and paint them as womanisers but no hetero relationship ever works out past an episode or two, and they protect each other fiercely.
It can be a bit camp at times and some of the plots are ridiculous but it is such good fun. I dunno where it might be available. I mean it might even be on YouTube cause it’s so old that I doubt there are many copyright cares at this point.
The actor who played Bodie has unfortunately passed, but many of you will recognise the actor who played Doyle. It was well renowned British actor Martin Shaw (wait till you see his hair! A fan fic writer’s DREAM.) Some of you might also recognise Gordon Jackson who is fabulous as their hard nosed boss, Major Cowley.
I’ve just realised if they have a ship name I don’t know it, so anyone who does - I’d love to know.
Give it a go if you can!
