The Feds is a series of Australian television films starring Robert Taylor, which were first broadcast on the Nine Network 1993-1996.
The Feds revolves around the activities of the Australian Federal Police, who protect the national interests from crime in Australia and overseas. Nine telemovies were produced in the series.
A barrister and a brain surgeon suspected of fraud are tracked down by the Feds.
The film was shot 1 March - 2 April 1993 on location in Melbourne, Canberra and Hong Kong.
Cast actors:
When a former Australian Prime Minister dies, Dave Griffin and Jo Moody become a part of the security operations for the state funeral. A report of missing plastic explosives from the Defence Laboratory and a lead received by the German Police are the first inklings there could be a plot to assassinate one of the heads of state who will be attending the funeral service. Assisted by the mysterious Jurgen Dietermann from German Security, the Feds raid a terrorist hide-out in search of the plastic explosives. When the raid proves to be unsuccessful, the state funeral is in danger of being cancelled.
Guest actors:
A Family Court Judge's wife is critically injured when a bomb explodes outside their home. The Federal Police believe a deranged bomber with a grudge against the court is on the loose and begin their man-hunt. Help comes from an unlikely source when Cal Woods, a former Federal Police Officer, compelled to leave the force in disgrace, offers information. He claims to know the person responsible. But Jo Moody has dealt with Cal Woods before.
Guest actors:
The two children of Suzi Plummer, the divorced wife of Idris Karya, an army officer of a prominent Indonesian military family, vanish while on an access visit with their father. Fearing an international incident, the Federal Police are pressured to find the children before they are taken out of the country. Dave Griffin, a divorced father, is moved by the pleas of Suzi, who has long feared her former husband would try to take the children back to Indonesia to live with his mother, Sarminah. But Jo Moody feels the case is more complex and even suspects the children's mother of being involved.
Guest actors:
When a Central American judge is murdered while investigating evidence against a Colombian drug lord, Julio Blanco, The Feds join forces in an international effort against Mr. Cocaine. Dave Griffin and Jo Moody travel to Mexico to persuade Brandy, the discontented Australian consort of Blanco, to return with them to Australia to give evidence. But Blanco gets wind of Dave's mission and he is forced to flee the country at night with Brandy, leaving Jo to make her own way home.
