- Seven wayward juveniles (the "Green Bottles" of the title) spend their days truanting and thieving. One by one they are caught and made to face the consequences of the choices they have made. An educational film apparently made in association with the Metropolitan Police and intended to be shown in schools as a warning to those who might be tempted to stray from the straight and narrow. Included as an extra on the DVD for Bronco Bullfrog (1971).
- Terry helps out his friend Des by delivering a car but it is a getaway car that has been used in a robbery and Terry's finger-prints are found in it. Amazingly Arthur comes to his young minder's rescue by providing him with an alibi though more aggravation is provided by a magistrate who is also a thief.
- Arthur takes possession of a BMW imported from Germany but his car lot is raided and the car proved to be part of a drug importation racket. Whilst Arthur is interrogated by Inspector Klingmann Terry sets out to locate the delivery driver, leading to a punch-up on a bus.
- When some bearer bonds belonging to gangster Bobby Altman go missing, he immediately suspects the courier Billy Gilpin and sends his heavies after him. Billy turns to Arthur and Terry for help and, whilst Terry manages to get him out of town to Brighton, Arthur has to talk his way out of things when Bobby takes him for a ride.
- Haskins is concerned that, in an adjacent manor, crooks seem to be getting nicked and then released without charge. Posing as an ex-con Regan follows a lead to the Blue Parrot club, haunt of corrupt officers Perraut and Huke who take bribes from villains to let them go and are running a protection racket. Using marked notes he sets them up.
- A daring gang of cold-blooded thieves make off with lorries carrying brandy on two separate occasions, killing a driver and injuring a policeman. The Sweeney are made to look a laughing stock at their failure to catch the gang. Carter's new girlfriend Julie Kingdom and her colleague Mike Seton, both young uniformed rookie cops, go out on a limb to pursue a known fence, and recover the brandy. However, Regan is into damage limitation and wants to take the credit for himself, putting him at odds with Carter.
- A hung-over Regan pulls local Lothario Lukey Sparrow for his part in the theft of thirty thousand pounds worth of mercury. The boy has an alibi - he was in bed with a married woman, but wants it kept quiet, as he is getting wed next day, to Linda, daughter of the fearsome Lily Rix. Regan proves Lukey's part in the crime but needs to reach him before some very dangerous heavies do. Either way the wedding seems unlikely to go ahead, subjecting Regan to the full wrath of Mrs. Rix.
- A lorry containing cigars is hi-jacked, and the driver and one of the robbers are killed. The gang is, in turn, attacked and wiped out by another, Irish gang, led by Farrell and Flynn, because some of the cigar-boxes contain drugs, which the I.R.A. are planning to exchange for a new model of gun with laser sights. Regan traces the gang via the sale of some stolen cigars and the trail leads to a house in the country where the Irishmen are expecting a plane to arrive. All along Regan's girlfriend Jane has been having bad dreams about harm coming to him and she may well be proved to be right.
- Jimmy Fleet cons two businessmen out of a cache of diamonds, which he hides before being arrested and remanded in Wormwood Scrubs. Carter goes undercover as his cell-mate and gains his confidence and when Jimmy is released for lack of evidence the two go on a drinking spree, rudely interrupted by Patsy Kearney, a villain who steals from other villains. The Sweeney come to the rescue. Jimmy is unaware that his girl-friend, who is supposed to have the diamonds, is double-crossing him and, when he arrives at her empty flat, assumes that she has been captured, causing him to go after those he believes to be responsible with a gun. The consequent face-off involves Jimmy and Carter both doing each other a big favour.
- After a high-powered lawyer gets three petty thugs off on a murder charge, Regan is authorized to use whatever means necessary to bring the hoodlums in.
- Detective Sergeant Taylor is shot and wounded, and names his informant, Jimmy Park, as pulling the trigger. Regan visits Park's girl-friend Eve, who says that Taylor was corrupt, and gives her tail the slip in order to give money to Park, who is lying low in an old disused warehouse. Regan eventually tracks him down and more shots are fired. At the same time Haskins is having problems with his wife as she starts to lose her grip on reality and live in the past.
