on BBC Two England

Eleanor Parker , William Bendix with Horace McMahon Lee Grant , Bert Freed
It is an average day in New York's 21st Precinct Police Station as a steady flow of criminals, large and small, passes through the plain-clothes detectives' squad-room. But for Det Jim McLeod , a ruthlessly efficient cop, the day is a special one: it will be his last.
