No one in Southampton has any reason to be proud of the Gantry Estate, least of all the people who live there. And to Inspector Coleman, it's an alien land.

Social and racial tensions run high in a climate of despair....

Just like his 1930s matinee idol namesake, Ronald Coleman is erudite and well-spoken, and would far prefer to be a film director than a Detective Inspector.

His down-to-earth colleague, Detective Sergeant Fred Astor, is a career copper. Despite their differing backgrounds and approach, they make a formidable crime-solving team.

Stephen Thorne stars as Inspector Coleman and Joe Dunlop as Sergeant Astor.
