United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu, Multi-DVD Set, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: Jill Gascoine stars as tough, no-nonsense female cop Maggie Forbes. Made at a time when there were very few ranking female officers in the police force, The Gentle Touch not only showed police procedure within a Metropolitan Police CID unit but also allowed insight into how a woman might cope with such a role in what was very much a man's world. An instant hit with viewers, The Gentle Touch become one of the most successful police dramas ever made, running for five years before spinning off into another series - C.A.T.S. Eyes. Following the continuing challenges faced by DI Maggie Forbes, this fourth series, originally screened in 1982 and 1983, features more powerful and contemporary storylines that reflected the changing nature of police work in 1980s Britain; a stellar guest cast includes Joan Hickson, Michael Praed, Joanne Whalley, Art Malik and Clive Swift. ...The Gentle Touch - Complete Season 4 - 4-DVD Set ( The Gentle Touch - Complete Fourth Series ) ( The Gentle Touch - Complete Season Four )

I remember watching this on TV when very young and it still lives up to my memories, ecpecially the last episode of searies four when the main character "Maggie Forbes" is carried out on a stretcher. The fashions might have dated, but the areas covered e.g.robbary, violence etc are all still relevant. All the actors are first class.
I hope "network" release the final fifth series and then "Cats Eyes" which carried on the Maggie Forbes story. Jill Gascone was so much better than her equilevant on the BBC in Juliet Bravo.
If you like 80's cop drama's this is the series you should buy.
