    “Johnson” - coming soon to BBC1. “Corrupt, sex mad, alcoholic, he has somehow risen to superintendent status within the MET. But now as hundreds of elderly people start dying in care homes around the country, Johnson can no longer rely on charm and charisma. With his boss Carrie breathing down his neck, his rival DC Sunak after his job and his loyal deputy DC Gove relapsing on cocaine, can DCI Johnson crack the case and save the day?” 201B24B3-725D-4AA7-A3AC-2A1504D53FD2.jpeg

    A detective series based in Norwich called "Swallow". Swallow is a detective who tackles vandalism. Bit of a maverick, not afraid to break the law if he thinks it's necessary. He's not a criminal, you know, but he will, perhaps, travel 80mph on the motorway if, for example, he wants to get somewhere quickly.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This by a country mile for me.
    St Elsewhere on a similar footing as a hospital drama.
    Made a lot of top notch actors.
    But on the British scene . Line of Duty.

    This.
    But I’m loving binging on Hill Street Blues on 4 od, making post operation convalescing more bearable.

    i used to love it but my 11 year old discovered it and played every episode approximately 874 times so now I can’t watch it.

    I loved Hill Street Blues in the 80s. Tried to watch one recently, and it had dated really, really badly. :(
