A Tense Game Of Pool

Viv bets her new car in a game of pool with Nora's son, and she has some interesting news for him concerning a certain paternity test.

Featuring: Joanna Scanlan (D.I. Vivienne Deering), Elaine Cassidy (D.C. Dinah Kowalska) & Zackary Momoh (Manni Attah).

Press

With Viv having hit a wall in the investigation of Nora Attah and the girls who died in last week's devastating fire, she brings in her "weapon of mass destruction" to try to break the gangland kingpin. And, sure enough, cracks are soon beginning to form, not from Nora, but courtesy of son Manni. Meanwhile, an ex-con living with dementia tries to rob a bank that's since been converted into a pub. But there's more to this stick-up than meets the eye.

No Offence review

Few cop shows extract this much entertainment.
