Ridley follows charismatic Detective Inspector Alex Ridley, who is retiring from the police after years of dedicated service. After twenty-five years as a homicide copper, Ridley has been nudged out of the job he loves. But the prospect of retirement is not a particularly welcome one as he's been cut off in his prime. Ridley's replacement is Acting DI Carol Farman, his former protégée whom Ridley mentored for many years. When he's enlisted by Carol as a police consultant on a complex and compelling murder case, the investigation takes a dark and unexpected turn. Turning to her old mentor for support, Carol is keen to access Ridley's unique insight into crime-solving which has served them so well in the past. |

Adrian Dunbar’s name in the credits drew me to this one; he is a strong presence in every show I’ve seen him in. He’s good here as a retired detective who is lured back to the job to help out, putting his singular talents to use - and he sings, too. (see what I did there? LOL)
I’ll stay with the show; I enjoy mysteries.
good procedural mystery much like VERA - no great surprises in the plot, but good acting from everyone. I didn’t much care for his singing though..
