CGiii Comment

Simply, one of the best drama series ever made.

24 episodes of a drunk, gambling, foul-mouthed anti-hero...Coltrane is magnificent.

Episodes of interest...

Best Boys
One Day a Lemming Will Fly

When the milk of human kindness turns sour.....this has, possibly, one of the best lines that sums up the whole story - Death in Venice before the hair dye.

The(ir) Blurb...

This mystery series from the U.K. outlines the adventures of a psychologist employed by the police to aid them in profiling and questioning suspects. "Fitz" (Robbie Coltrane), an avowed drunkard and gambler, has an uncanny knack for boring directly into the hearts and minds of his subjects, many of whom may in fact be saner than he is.
