Thick As Thieves, the 1974 comedy starring John Thaw, Bob Hoskins and Pat Ashton, is nothing new here. Thick As Thieves
The Losers starred Leonard Rossiter and a young Alfred Molina. Believe it or not, in the UK as late as 1979 they were still wiping video tapes after broadcast and this show suffered that fate. Fortunately, out there somewhere, someone watching had an early video tape recorder (back when they were as big and heavy as the largest PC tower you've ever seen) and managed to get all but the last episode. Rossiter was a great actor, but this wasn't his finest hour by any means. Molina has gone on to enjoy a very successful career.
