mostly forgotten quality police drama.

Warning: Spoilers
Like so many series this has become known again due to repeats on tv.

I saw some of the repeats and recently bought the dvd boxed set.

This was made on film (I think) so it looks good and the sound is pretty good.

It is black and white which probably explains why it was not endlessly repeated like the colour ITC series of similar vintage.

I was born in 1960 so never saw this when it was on tv first time round.

It is quite tough and realistic for its time,a time capsule of the then present day captured forever.

The production values are quite high and the cast is usually good in each episode.

The star is John Gregson,he plays inspector Gideon a ww2 veteran with a wife and children,he is totally dedicated to the job.
