Meet the cast of No Offence series two

Christine is the strict, young, hyper-aspirational new boss.

“She is intrigued by Deering, she has a different way of working, a bit more formal, following protocol, doing things by ‘the book’. She observes how Deering not just thinks ‘outside the box’, but puts a grenade in the box, blows up the box then pisses on the box to destroy the evidence. They were a great ‘odd couple’ in that respect.” – Solemani

Rakie Ayola plays Nora Attah

Nora is a business woman and the matriarch of a Manchester crime family.

“She definitely plays Deering, though she wouldn’t bother if she didn’t have a great deal of respect for her. I think Nora genuinely likes Deering – but not the fact that they are on opposite sides of the law.” – Ayola

Will Mellor plays DC Spike Tanner

A very driven detective, Spike is a risk taker with an unshakeable moral compass. He’s the emotional glue in the team.
