    Yep, I used to love it as a kid. FYI ITV4 usually have it on regular daytime rotation if you want to catch some episodes. Though for some reasons they only every show seasons 1,2,3 and then go back to 1 again (there was 5 seasons of the show all told).

    One great thing I learnt from rewatching as an adult was that pretty much every action sequence you see in the the show (and in the intro for that matter) that doesn't feature Colt's truck is lifted from feature films and then just edited right into the show. The films were generally from the mid to late 70s.

    For instance that memorable shot in the intro of the yellow car crashing into the train? Well it came from this movie....

    Also I recall this chase scene from "The Driver (1978) was pretty much used in its entirety in one episode of The Fall Guy
