Minder is a sitcom about a crafty dealer called Arthur who due to his cowardice employs a bodyguard to look after him. Set in London the pair are involved in various dramas such as an armed robbery of a laundrette to fraud. The plots are usually along the lines of a mystery of one of Arthurs business interests being affected and Terry sent to investigate only to find its usually down to the man in charge { A bit like the Scooby Doo cartoons}. In one episode Arthurs mini-cab business is affected by two thugs roughing up the drivers and cars, But after Terry catches one and beats him up he learns the truth. Terry is a nice guy who likes boxing and ladies but is constantly frustrated by Arthurs blissful ignorance of his needs which results in him putting his papers in but eventually returning to the fold albeit reluctantly. The shows show London as it was during the 1980's which depicts it as a much calmer place with a few undeveloped nooks and Cranny's. A great many small and large screen stars make their appearance on the shows.Read full review

A true classic from the 80's. Great writing with characters you can engage with and two central actors in George Cole and Dennis Waterman who were like watching a double act perform.
