The Odd Man

The Odd Man

The first of a trilogy of police procedurals produced in the 1960s by Granada TV, linked by the presence of pompous but increasingly genial police Chief Inspector Charles Rose, The Odd Man initially dealt with the investigations of theatrical-agent-cum-detective Steve Gardiner, and his encounters with the police in the form of Chief Inspector Gordon and DS Swift. By season three, Rose takes Gardiner's place.

'Look, you've had £10,000 worth of publicity already. A murder arrest right in your back pocket. Cut your losses. They may be heavy,' - CI Rose. But will Gardiner take his advice?
