RETIRED COPS SOLVE COLD CASES IN THIS HIT BRITISH SERIES In this wildly
popular crime series, aging cops and traditional sleuthing trump high-tech
gadgets and modern criminology. James Bolam (The Beiderbecke Affair), Alun
Armstrong (Garrow’s Law), and Dennis Waterman (The Sweeney) star as three
detectives pulled out of retirement to unravel cases that stumped the
Metropolitan Police. Their beautiful boss, Detective Superintendent Sandra
Pullman (Amanda Redman, Sexy Beast), keeps them on track and mostly out of
trouble as they follow their hunches and bend the rules. Strong writing, ample
humor, and a splendid cast have made this one of the most-watched shows on
British television. This time around, the team has its hands full with
unsolved murders, an 18-year-old abduction, and a 30-year-old robbery that
threatens the team’s very existence. Guest stars include Rupert Graves (Death
at a Funeral), Paul Rhys (Chaplin), Samantha Bond (Downton Abbey), and Siân
Phillips (I, Claudius). Episode 1 Dark Chocolate - After a recent rape is
linked to two unsolved attacks at a chocolate factory, the team examines all
three cases and discovers even more dark secrets. Meanwhile, Gerry enlists
Sandra’s help to quit smoking. Episode 2 Good Morning Lemmings - Celebrated
graffiti artist Danny “Flak” Tyler was murdered four years ago. So why is “I
Killed Flak” graffiti suddenly appearing around London? While the team focuses
on Flak’s former crew members, Brian’s obsession with Twitter proves
distracting. Episode 3 It Smells of Books - Brian goes undercover at the
London Library, his “spiritual home,” to learn what really happened to a cold
case victim. When university professor and book lover Richard Symes fell off
the roof of his college, was it suicide or murder? Episode 4 Coming Out Ball -
The 1983 abduction of an 18-year-old debutante is a very cold case that just
got warmer. A former member of the Irish Republican Front has come forward
with new information. Can Sandra and her team learn the truth? Episode 5 Dead
Man Talking - When a psychic tells a dead man’s daughter that her father left
unfinished business, the team reinvestigates the death of a wealthy financier.
Sandra is convinced the psychic is a fraud—until he reveals a conflict
involving her own late father. Episode 6 Fashion Victim - Eight years prior,
fashion designer Ritchie Levene was stabbed to death. There were plenty of
suspects, but no evidence. On the eve of a retrospective exhibition of
Levene’s work, the team takes another look at the crime. Episode 7 Left Field
- Soon after being released from jail, pedophile John Davies confesses to
abducting and killing a 5-year-old boy 25 years earlier. Suspicious of
Davies’s motives, the team reopens the case—to prove his innocence, not his
guilt. Episode 8 Gloves Off - A talented young boxer was shot and killed 15
years ago, but the case stalled when the murder weapon was never found. Now
that the gun has surfaced, the team reopens the case and learns more than they
want to know about professional boxing. Episode 9 Where There's Smoke - When
the team receives new information about a fatal fire, they are drawn into a
dangerous criminal underworld. The original investigation was blocked by a
wall of silence, which may be crumbling—if a witness can be trusted. Episode
10 The Fourth Man - DI Frank Paterson joins the team to reinvestigate a
30-year-old armed robbery during which ₤10 million were stolen and two guards
killed. Paterson’s belief that new evidence points to high-level police
corruption puts Sandra’s team in jeopardy.
