Inspector George Gently: Series 8

It's 1970 and we return to Northumberland for Gently's last cases in this final series. It's the start of a new decade and Edward Heath has just won a narrow victory for the Conservatives at the General Election on a platform of peace and prosperity by taking the UK into Europe. There's also radical change for women, political paranoia in the Cold War and industrial unrest in the air. Martin Shaw stars in the title role and Lee Ingleby and Lisa McGrillis return as his sidekicks Detective Inspector Bacchus and Detective Sergeant Rachel Coles.
