This suspenseful (some would say “weird”) crime series from Granada was created by Eddie Boyd and starred Edwin Richfield.
Richfield played part-time Private Investigator Steve Gardiner (pictured below left), whose main interplay was with DS Swift (Keith Barron), Chief Inspector Gordon (Moultrie Kelsall), his wife Judy (Sarah Lawson), and her murderer, South.
The second series also starred William Mervyn as posh boss, Chief Inspector Rose (pictured below right) and the series acquired something approaching cult status.
