The Persuaders is a British television series, which first
aired in 1970 and 1971. Roger Moore, as Lord Brett Sinclair,
and Tony Curtis, as Danny Wilde, both millionaire international
playboys, but from very different British and American
backgrounds. The inconsistent premise of The Persuaders
television series is in aristocratic Sinclair being forced
to team-up with rough-diamond-American Wilde in fighting
crime in behalf of a judge (Laurence Naismith), or face
jail. Twenty-four episodes The Persuaders were made by
Lew Grade's ITC company, each fifty minutes long and featuring
dramatic synthesizer theme music by John Barry. Some critics
have called this one of the finer television series ever
made, anywhere.
