This was one of the first TV shows I remember watching as a child. Murdock was my favourite character.
The credits began with the voiceover:
In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angles 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.
The main characters were:
Colonel John "Hannibal" Smith
Lieutenant Templeton "Face" Peck
Captain HM "Howling Mad" Murdock
Sergeant Bosco "B.A." Baracus
