In the mid-1960s, this remote region has just begun to feel the ripples of social and cultural change rocking the rest of the world, and Gently brings big-city smarts and unflappable judgment to his job. Teamed with brash young sergeant John Bacchus (Lee Ingleby, Nicholas Nickleby), he uncovers motives for murder in a once-tranquil place during a time of transition.

In these feature-length mysteries based on Alan Hunter's popular novels, Gently and Bacchus delve into a family's dark secrets and a university's chaotic campus. 2 mysteries, approx. 3 hours, 2 DVD or Blu-ray discs, SDH subtitles.
