To celebrate the good folk at Time Life DVD have given us five box sets for you to win! Starring Alan Dobie as Detective Sergeant Cribb and William Simons as Detective Constable Thackery the series sees the duo working for the newly formed Criminal Investigation Department aka the CID at a time when criminals like Jack The Ripper were stalking the streets of London and police had to get back with limited resources and without the technology that modern day cops take for granted. Over the course of 13 episodes Cribb and Thackery tackle some complex cases (often involving real life events too for added background depth). Watch out too for well known faces including the likes of Andrew Burt, Linda Robson and Michael Elphick. An excellent series definitely worth checking out.
