Full cast dramatisation
Dalziel & Pascoe may be total opposites, but their different skills complement one another, making a crime-busting team second to none. A full cast dramatisation starring Warren Clarke & Colin Buchanan.
Andy Dalziel is blunt-talking, politically incorrect, and can be very insensitive. He's from the old school of policing, in complete contrast to his younger side-kick, the fast-track university-educated Peter Pascoe. Well mannered Pascoe is the complete opposite of his abrasive, impolite partner Dalziel. They may be poles apart, but their different skills complement one another, making a crime-busting team second to none.
An old flame of Dalziel's dies of cancer and someone murders the village lawyer. Together these two events open a can of worms. Peter Pascoe goes to visit his daughter in America, right into the path of a hurricane, aptly named Hurricane Andy. A letter addressed to Andy reveals he is a father, something he had been unaware of for 20 years. Before he can deal with this, his son is murdered. In the end, everyone has a secret and Dalziel manages to turn over every rock to expose the truth.
