No Offence

Joanna Scanlan (The Thick Of It, Getting On), Elaine Cassidy (The Paradise, Harper's Island) and Alexandra Roach (Hunderby, The Iron Lady) lead the unorthodox crack team of cops at the heart of Paul Abbott's No Offence, an outrageous new police procedural series from the writer of Shameless and State of Play.

Will Mellor (Two Pints, Broadchurch), Paul Ritter (Friday Night Dinner, The Game) and Colin Salmon (Some Girls, 24: Live Another Day), join them in the mix of tough but big-hearted bobbies who go above and beyond to bring down the criminal rabble in a crumbling cop-shop.

Keeping these streets clean is a Herculean task, enough to demoralise even the keenest rookie but there's a reason why this hotchpotch of committed cops are on this force, on this side of town. Drug labs, arsonists, neo-Nazis and notorious murderers are all in a day's work for this close-knit team, led by the dizzyingly capable but unquestionably unhinged DI Vivienne Deering (Scanlan). But when a particularly twisted serial killer emerges it leaves even the most hardened of these seasoned coppers reeling.

Flanked by her right-hand women - the compassionate but impulsive DC Dinah Kowalska (Cassidy) and the recently (surprisingly) promoted DS Joy Freers (Roach) - Deering and her team must crack this case by whatever unconventional means possible. Because amidst all the assorted low life; the pimps, the petty thieves, and downright nasty bastards they've dealt with, this is their most disturbing case yet, one that will touch their lives in ways they could never expect.

The cast includes: Ste Johnston, Tom Varey, Neet Mohan, Saira Choudhry, Hannah Walters, Charlie May-Clark and Kate O Flynn.

This DVD comprises all 8 episodes of the series.

First released: Monday 10th August 2015
