Summary
No-nonsense copper Gene Hunt, determined as ever to rid the streets of criminals, sets out to prevent a potentially explosive protest getting out of hand, while Alex is assigned to look after a Thatcherite playboy. The series continues with Ray surprising his colleagues with proof of his gentler side by gaining the confidence of a young witness; Gene comes up against a left-wing feminist group when a man is murdered; and the police officers try to stop a gangster's firearms deal, an act Alex believes will prevent her being shot in 2008.
