The Sweeney: Money, Money, Money (ITV 12 Oct 1978, with Edward Judd)

Published

on


In Money, Money, Money things get personal for Regan and Carter when an old friend of Jack’s is killed. Regan’s mate Eddie Monk, a reformed ex-con, has just won £58,000 on the pools and plans to open a nice little shop by the seaside.

An old job from his crooked days comes back to haunt him though when a blackmailer calls demanding ten grand or he will shop him to the police. When Eddie and his old partner Slemen try to take the blackmailer down Eddie is killed.

Despite the personal angle to the plot it’s still quite a typical episode with a car chase and a fight scene.

Besides the always excellent Edward Judd as Monk, there are lots of other well known faces popping up including Glynn Owen as Wally Hough, William Simons, Linal Haft and Michael Culver.
