If anybody actually reads my reviews they will know I am a shift worker so missed a lot of stuff on tv over the years.

I am catching up on dvd.

So I remember this being heavily trailed on ITV back in the day.

I bought the dvd and am working my way through it.

I am not greatly impressed but on the other hand I have seen worse versions of this sort of thing.

Leslie grantham plays a cop who goes undercover.

It has the wonderful Frances Tomelty in it.

The ideas in the drama are strong,it could be remade today,but the execution of the plots are too often routine.

Grantham's character uses his police skills for a secret department,we can believe this angle of the plot but it is hard to believe so many women find him so attractive.

This was made by the same company (Carlton)that made Thief Takers.

Thief Takers was much better than this,hope it comes out on dvd.
