Know Your TV Detective?

Remember those TV detective programmes we used to watch back in the 70s? I certainly spent quite a lot of my teenage days in front of the goggle box and I  remember those screen detectives well. Let's see if YOU do. Just name the characters in the photo, and also the name of the TV series ...


(A)


(B)


(C)


(D)


(E)


(F)


(G)

Added Later

(H)


And what can I say? Attractive noprizes await the first person to get all correct (without Googling ... I'm gonna trust you) ...

    Sorry guys, if you demonstrate that you don't have dementia by correctly identifying most of these "old guys", I may put up the TV babes soon.

    What funny names you all give ha, what Rojak, what Petronas la, what Star sky la...very clever indeed.

    If CLK grew a moustache, he would be more handsome than the one in pic.H.

    Its Frank Cannon. I had thought that WJ miss him out earlier. I remember that despite his bulk, shots at him had always missed while he frequently gets his targets with just 1 shot.
