Product Description
This outstanding police procedural drama stars noted actor Martin Shaw as Alan Cade, the compassionate and resolutely reformist chief constable of Eastland, a fictional East Anglian force; a distinguished guest cast includes Philip Glenister, Andy Serkis, John Shrapnel, Peter Egan and Nickolas Grace. While this fourth series continues to show the many challenges facing Cade and his frontline team, from drug crime to terrorist bombings, witness intimidation and the exploitation of migrant workers, the focus remains on the politics of modern policing. The former Met commissioner s radical approach still antagonises his superiors at the Home Office, and he is now witnessing the gradual centralisation and unaccountability of the government agencies that are taking over different police roles. And, as ever, Cade s deep commitment to Eastland is taking an unremitting toll on his personal relationships...

This is the type of series that one never wants to see concluded, or if it should be the last, it ends with a conclusion. Having viewed all four series of "The Chief" so far released, I am waiting to see a fifth. My hope is that there is one and it will soon be available. The whole of the series has dealt responsibly with an aspect of policing not usually seen. The cast have been well selected and the acting of a high standard.

As fresh and relevant as it was nearly twenty years ago
Attitudes to smoking, the way the police dress and the cars have changed, however the stories have not lost their ability to grip and their relevance. Read more

Well, martin Shaw seems to be a known womanizer!!!
In this series and also in his Judge deed series Mr. Shaw seems to be very successful with women and he seems to be foolish in his choices as well. But always credible to boot. Read more

The Chief 4.
I liked this series especialy the episodes featuring Martin Shaw. I think it is a pity that they only produced four series.
