A simple look at his career from the link above will show how quickly he fell from his early 80s height.
Although as I said, the Jack the Ripper mini series, is BLOODY SUPERB. Even Michael Caine is good in it!

Pity Cubby B didn't watch The Professionals because Lewis Collins had everything to be Bond - the looks, the style plus the humour. Lewis Collins was already an established sitcom actor prior to The Professionals.
I've always loved his work, the Jack the Ripper mini series with Michael Caine is almost perfect television, that even my 7 year old son was named after him!

Apparently he went for an audition for James bond, but didn't get it because he was too aggressive. How differently his career would have turned out, if he got that role.

Shocked to find out that A) he was 67 and b) he is no longer with us. Its a shame that he didn't contiue his great success that he had with the professionals. I can't remember the last time I saw him on tv
