Dempsey and Makepeace
1 9 8 5 - 1 9 8 6
(UK)
30 x 60 minute episodes
This
detective drama series was based around two mismatched detectives:-
Lieutenant James Dempsey was a tough New York cop who found himself in
a lot of trouble when he killed his partner during a corruption
investigation in his own Department.
Dempsey was seconded to a new undercover section
of Scotland Yard known as SI-10 for his own protection while the heat
died down within the NYPD. In London, Dempsey was partnered with a
beautiful female - Detective Sergeant Harriet Makepeace (who preferred
to be known as "Harry").
Working under the extremely watchful eye of Chief
Superintendent Gordon Spikings, Dempsey and Makepeace never ever
agreed with each other's methods but they still managed to
consistently get the bad guys.
Co-stars Michael Brandon and Glynis Barber
married in real-life on November 18th, 1989.
