Synopsis

Retired Detective Alex Ridley is lured back into service as a consultant detective when his former protégée, Carol Farman, needs help cracking a complex murder case.

Critics' reviews

"This series of feature-length mysteries would be better if it wasn’t stiffly designed to showcase the musical abilities of Line of Duty star Adrian Dunbar."

Brad Newsome: Sydney Morning Herald
"A solid but hardly exceptional example of the rural mystery, telling its two-part stories with a slow and steady pace, enriched by Dunbar's craggy and unexpected lyrical persona"

Matt Roush: TV Guide
"A great return to policing for Adrian Dunbar (but he won’t stop singing)
(...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Lucy Mangan: The Guardian
"We’ve got murder, sure but everything that unfolds afterwards is so highly predictable there’s little mystery at all. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"

Sophie Laughton: Metro
"Even Adrian Dunbar's singing detective can't save this banal drama
(...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"

Anita Singh: Telegraph
"This isn't a series that's reinventing the wheel, but if you're after a gentle mystery to sink your teeth into, dive into Ridley. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Helen Daly: Radio Times
