Retired cops solve cold cases in this hit British series, seen on PBS. "Wonderful performances from terrific TV actors" - Daily Mirror (U.K.); "Fresh, original, and funny" - The Guardian (U.K.); "Offbeat, amusing, and well written" - Deseret (UT) News.
This long-running, award-winning series combines masterful storytelling with tense crime solving, indelible characters, and sly humor. Amanda Redman (Sexy Beast) stars as dishy, driven superintendent Sandra Pullman. She heads a team of aging detectives pulled out of retirement for a job they're uniquely qualified to do: tackle cold cases-some of them decades old.
Each detective has a troubling personal history. Jack Halford (James Bolam, The Beiderbecke Affair) lost his wife to a hit-and-run driver. Gerry Standing (Dennis Waterman, The Sweeney) is a ladies' man with a past he'd prefer to keep quiet. Brian Lane (Alun Armstrong, Garrow's Law) is an alcoholic with marital problems. Even workaholic Sandra must cope with a shattering secret, revealed during a grisly situation. Season Six of the hit detective drama finds the team in top form, cracking cases and jokes with equal flair.
