Topic: Jack Regan


  
  The Sweeney - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Thaw as DI Jack Regan in episode one, series one of The Sweeney.
Regan is a hardman but he is human: he helps out an ex-informer whose son is kidnapped in Feet of Clay (Series 4), and his sympathetic pushing enables his boss Haskins to ask for help when his wife goes missing after a breakdown in Victims (Series 4) - it is Regan who finds her.
The final episode "Jack or Knave" saw a slightly ambiguous ending with the main character Jack Regan being temporarily locked up after being implicated in a corruption scandal of which he was exonerated.

 The Sweeney DVDs
Beginning with the television film, 'Regan', in 1974, 'The Sweeney' was first broadcast by ITV in January, 1975 (a time when ITV was in its prime, and far removed from this now sad channel's decline into desperate 'reality' shows and general tackiness).
