When three experienced detectives are drafted into the police force of a northern city to infiltrate areas of crime where the local police might be recognised it becomes a baptism of fire for the strangers... An extraordinary success for ITV (five series over five years and a sequel) Strangers was a tough quirky police series that was certainly a breed apart from the other cop shows of the seventies and eighties. Written by celebrated author and scriptwriter Murray Smith (Dempsey and Makepeace) Strangers features Don Henderson (Star Wars The Paradise Club) as the idiosyncratic D.S. Bulman (created in The XYY Man) who was never to be seen without his trademark string gloves Vicks inhaler and plastic bag. Episodes Comprise: 1. Retribution 2. You Can't Win 'Em All 3. Armed and Dangerous 4. Racing Certainty 5. Clowns Don't Cry 6. Tom Thumb and Other Stories 7. No Orchids for Missing Blandisch
Four further investigations from the famed Scottish detectives.
