LEVENE and FRANKLIN

"Persuaded"

With Nicholas Courtney and India Fisher

John Benton (John Anthony Blake Levene) and Mike Yates (Richard Franklin) provide a striking contrast. Nevertheless, they have a lot in common. Both are handsome and highly personable, and both are magnetic to beautiful women.

Their meeting is unexpected, but planned. Each receives an anonymous invitation to a luxurious Bournemouth  hotel. Their first encounters are skilfully manipulated, climaxing in a good-humoured but none-the-less vigorous fight which almost reduces the hotel restaurant to rubble.

Facing the prospect of imprisonment, they find themselves at the mercy of their mysterious host, a former General named Alistair Brigade (Nicholas Courtney) who berates them for having become playboys but says he can help them. During his time in military intelligence he had applied justice according to the law which meant that many criminals escaped. In retirement, he has resolved to correct the balance between law and justice and Yates and Benton are his chosen instruments for righting legal wrongs.

Prison is their only alternative to complying with his wishes. So they comply. And their first task has its appealing aspects: to check out a lovely brunette by the name of Honeysuckle Love-Fountain (India Fisher) who can be identified by an intimate birthmark...
