CI5: The New Professionals is a British television action crime drama series, created and principally written by Brian Clemens, that first broadcast on Sky One on 19 September 1999. Billed as an updated version of the 1970s terrestrial television series The Professionals, the series is set in a fictional government agency known as CI5 (Criminal Intelligence Department 5). The original group of three men - Doyle, Bodie and their boss Cowley - are replaced by a team consisting of Harry Malone (Edward Woodward), Chris Keel (Kal Weber), Sam Curtis (Colin Wells) and Tina Backus (Lexa Doig). In a similar manner to The Professionals, the series included a number of high-budget impressive action sequences, often filmed in a James Bond-esque style.

  • Profesionálové z CI5 (v anglickém originále CI5: The New Professionals) je britský kriminální televizní seriál, vyprávějící o zvláštním oddělení britské policie CI5. Hrdiny jsou agenti Sam Curtis, Chris Keel a Tina Backus (Lexa Doig) a jejich velitel oddělení Harry Malone. Seriál navazuje na sérii Profesionálové. Nebyl ovšem tak úspěšný; v letech 1998–1999 bylo natočeno jen 13 dílů. Původně měl být šéfem CI5 Bodie ze starých Profesionálů, k čemuž ale nedošlo. (cs)
