One-off drama set in 1964 about an old-school detective trying to come to terms with a time when the lines between the police and criminals have become blurred, when the proliferation of drugs is about to change the face of policing for ever and when Britain's youth stand on the brink of a social and sexual revolution. Based on the Inspector Gently novels by Alan Hunter, this series takes place in the swiftly changing 1960s and celebrates one of the few good men at Scotland Yard during that period.
