Detective Mike Simmons
Working as a Metropolitan Police Detective, Mike Simmons is a well-respected member of the force. In his early twenties, Mike won numerous motorcycle, rally-car and sports car racing championships where he certainly developed his need-for-speed!
Mike Simmons
OVERVIEW
He has a huge experience with all different kinds of vehicles and really knows how to master them and push them too their limits. However, while he wasn’t doing high speed ‘contra-la-montre’ in rally cars and motorcycles, Mike is a former member of the parachute regiment, with a great deal of experience in weapons and tactics.
His extensive knowledge of firearms has been enormously helpful and valuable in his transition to Detective for New Scotland Yard, a position that he really loves and where he can exploit his talents to the full.
ABOUT Detective Mike Simmons 1, 2, 3 & 4
Mike is a natural choice for the new Streamline Initiative. Already enormously creative and inventive in the field, it is hoped that once Mike is united with the Streamline Technology, his talents will allow him to start getting to grips with crime in a highly effective way, which is necessary as the British are beginning to lose their fight against crime in London and the British Isles.
During the initial pilot, Mike is moved from his very ‘drab’ East-end home to an incredibly exclusive West End penthouse apartment. Mike takes to his new home like a duck to water. In his spare time, he likes to keep himself in check with a great work-out and loves a good target practice session on the shooting range at MET HQ.
Mike is caring and good natured but has a surgical demeanour. He can turn violent and aggressive when provoked but usually keeps his cool and is always in control. He is quite good with computers, although he wishes that the world didn’t need them as much, whereby he is completely at odds with Stacey who quite simply adores them, finding them completely indispensable. Finally, Mike really gets on well with Monicar, the Streamline Automobile’s on-board computer and although totally crazy, the pair develop a strong, working relationship.
Mike’s knows that she’s off limits
Stephanie!
With Officer Hardcastle around, Mike knows that the young and fabulous Stephanie Hardcastle is quite simply, not on the cards, although he’d really love it if she was. What a sensational face and figure. Mike just can’t resist!
Super-Agent!
The Living Daylights!
In the delightful opening sequence to The Living Daylights ((1987) Director: John Glen, United Artists, EON Productions), we see why a quick-thinking Bond can get out of literally any situation. This sequence highlights intelligence-led decision-making in an uncertain environment. Through observation, suspense and evolving information, it demonstrates the value of situational awareness and sound judgement, qualities that help inform the Detective Mike Simmons concept. Mike is always this way!
The Lone Ranger!
Out for Justice!
In the menacing city streets, Mike’s on a mission. A mission to rid the world of the toughest criminals. Those same streets are dangerous, and the history’s written in pain, but now that Stacey and Streamline are with him, there’s no one he can’t stop!
It’s here!
The Streamline Technology!
With outstanding technology comes a incredible new race. A race where Detective Mike Simmons must use all of his skills. Detective work meets super-technology in this deadly world, marking a whole new chapter for British Policing!
2. More about Detective Mike Simmons!
Mike has an unusual yet highly intriguing background. He loves the Police, but wishes he can truly make a difference. The MET are looking for someone just like him. Someone who can go that extra mile coupled with some all-new totally awe-inspiring ‘tech!’ The tech that is…Streamline!
The MET have selected Mike. And now it’s up to Mike to deliver. Go for it!
A Real Man of Action!
MI 3!
A Mystery Man!
3. The Super-Successful Detective Mike Simmons!
Using all the gadgetry and machinery, Mike soon realises the potential of the excellence behind Streamline’s systems. Man and machine become one in a subtle yet powerful way. Mike was always gifted with machines but now, he’s tested to his limits! Can he perform? Can he rise to the challenge that is…The Streamline Initiative?
Mike and the Streamline Team now work together and start to take the fight to them. Detective work takes on new meaning. Obstacles that took weeks to surmount now take days, even hours to solve and problems that took hours are resolved in a blinking of an eye!
The First Episode!
The Amazing Penthouse!
A beautiful looking West-End Penthouse Apartment is where Mike comes to permanently live at the end of the pilot, complete with Helipad, Satellite Up-link, all different kinds of Weaponry, Mini-bar and Beverley, the super-sexy Penthouse Suite computer who runs the whole show while he’s out chasing criminals. Superb!
The Villains!
Gangster Town!
Deadly and dangerous, there’s some nasty characters out there, and with these guys hot on his heels, Mike’s certainly got his work cut out for him. The Streamline Initiative to the rescue!
On the Prowl!
Nicky & Catherine!
In this fabulous scene from Basic Instinct ((1992) Director: Paul Verhoeven, Carolco Pictures, Canal+), Detective Nick Curran leaves his badge at home, to seek out the teasing Catherine Tramell. This sequence examines the role of ambiguity within an investigation. Through psychological tension and the careful management of information, it emphasises observation, critical thinking and evidence-based judgement. These principles are central to the Detective Mike Simmons concept. Furthermore, the seduction is dramatic and erotic yet hugely entertaining and with so many female stars in my show, I am left wondering as to which age group The Streamline Initiative will be marketed?
