Description

Amid the turmoil of changing times, Chief Inspector Michael Jericho (Robert Lindsay, My Family, Horatio Hornblower) is a famous Scotland Yard detective investigating high-profile murders in 1950s London. Aided by his trusted sergeant, Clive Harvey (David Troughton, Sharpes Rifles), and the young and eager-to-please DC John Caldicott (Ciarn McMenamin, The Sinking of the Laconia), Jericho solves Londons most heinous crimes, whether they occur in posh homes or illegal gambling dens. Though brilliant at his job and adored by the public, Jericho hides a dark and painful past and will stop at nothing to find justice. Seen on public television, this stylish noir with first-rate production values and compelling casts (Reuters) boasts fantastic guest stars, including Francesca Annis (Agatha Christies Partners in Crime), Brendan Coyle (Downton Abbey), Laurence Fox (Inspector Lewis), Peter Bowles (The Irish R.M.), Claire Bloom (Brideshead Revisited), Jane Horrocks (Absolutely Fabulous), James Wilby (Gosford Park), Alfie Allen (Game of Thrones), and Dominic Cooper (Mamma Mia!).
