Season 5 • Wed 18 Sep • 2h 15m

Helen Mirren returns again as Detective Superintendent Jane Tennison. Now transferred to the Greater Manchester Police, her reputation for fierce assertiveness precedes her. After an unsatisfactory stint at community relations, Tennison heads an investigation into the murder of a young drug dealer. The social problems of the urban youth are at the centre of this realistic and unflinching drama. The investigation also brings her into conflict with her superior officer, Detective Chief Superintendent Martin Ballinger, over the most effective way of dealing with the drug crisis. In moving to a new station, Tennison has to cope with a fresh team who are more familiar with the territory than she is, and who are wary of an outsider, however experienced. The combination of Tennison's instinct and dogged determination to catch the criminals leads her into a situation of extreme personal jeopardy.
