Series three of this outstanding police procedural drama sees the role of Chief Constable passing from John Stafford (played by Tim Pigott-Smith) to former Metropolitan Deputy Assistant Commissioner Alan Cade (Martin Shaw - The Professionals Judge John Deed).

All six episodes from the third series of the early 1990s ITV police drama series starring Martin Shaw.
