"In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire: The A-Team."

Thus began every episode of the blockbusting TV series, a hit with children and adults alike. The plot was almost the same every episode: a local rich and powerful crimelord or mafia gang would beat up the locals, the A-Team would arrive and fend them off for a while. Then Amy would be captured. The Team would try and rescue her with a clever disguise and then out of nowhere BA Baracas would turn up in a modified army vehicle and bust the bad guys. A simple but brilliant formula.
