HIGH NOON FOR THE PROFESSIONALS

I won this magazine the other day because inside is a story written by Brian Clemens based around the episode "Black Out" though some parts have been changed .This is the story as it is written in the magazine



The vicar saw her first. Facing the congregation and the doors as he did he was bound to. The choir was in good voice. The sound of Praise My Soul bounced and reverbarated and shook the stained glass windows of St. Annes Church and the girl entered and walked down the aisle towards the altar, but she wasn't seeing it, she didn't seem to be aware of anything or anyone around her as she stumbled forward, her eyes glazed.
Of course being sunday the rest of the congregation were all dressed in their best smart suits, sensible shirts, pretty hats. The girl wore only a bra and pink panties. The vicar stared in astonishment, the choir faltered away into silence as the girl swayed, held out her hands as though in supplication, and then collapsed across the end pew.

This is the first paragraph just to give you a taster and some fabulous artwork.

Wow! That's very cool. I do love those illustrations. *g* But what fun to read the story. Not as good as seeing our lads in the flesh, of course, but fun nevertheless!

i love the artwork too, it was one of the factors that drew me to the magazine plus the mention of Bodie and to be honest that is like a magnet to me. I am halfway through the story and as you read it you begin to notice the subtle changes for instance in the episode when the ambulance is being shot upon it's Doyle who gets out and chases the attackers while Bodie stays in the ambulance then you hear Doyle shout Bodie's name while in the story it's the other way around.

Thankyou for looking at it.

Thankyou and yes the artwork is gorgeous displaying the lads just as i see them though in the story there are some subtle twists and turns compared to the episode. I searched this magazine out and won it on ebay , i see Lewis Collins' name and it draws me like a magnet.

Thanks for looking at it.

I love the illustration, thank you for sharing it! The artists has made them look a bit like they are combining muscular modern dance with martial arts - looks rather good!

I didn't comment - I thought I did!!!

Love the artwork. I think this is from the TV Times 1979 that was later the Blackout script.

Thankyou.

Yes it was and as you read the story there are subtle little changes to the episode itself and yes i couldn't agree more the artwork is simply gorgeous. Infact i have just bought another one with the story based on WILD JUSTICE which for me being a Lewis fanatic is essential viewing and reading and once again there is some gorgeous artwork involved.

Love those illustrations! They really capture the lads in action.
