The Firechasers (1971)

Set in London, an insurance investigator (Chad Everett) is probing the cause of a series of deadly fires that seem to be connected. A news reporter (Anjanette Comer) covering the fires assists him in his investigation. Directed by Sidney Hayers (BURN WITCH BURN). Despite the two American leads, this is a British film. Actually, it was a TV pilot (yes, they had them in England too) that wasn't picked up so it was released theatrically in cinemas (though I don't think it was ever released in the U.S.). It's pretty routine but I was impressed by the excellent fire sequences which were well done and I found the women's costumes amusingly nostalgic. Joanna Dainton as Everett's investigating assistant wears mini skirts and white go-go boots to the office! The kind of movie that works well when it's 2 o'clock in the morning and you have insomnia. With Roy Kinnear, Rupert Davies, Robert Flemyng, Marianne Stone, John Loder and Keith Barron.
