The Last Detective

2003 - 2007 NR 1h 30m 7.8

"Dangerous" Davies always gets the cases no one else wants, and no one notices when he eventually succeeds. But his old-fashioned decency and dogged determination have won him legions of loyal fans.

He's gentle, old-fashioned, decent, and nice even when he's drunk. But these qualities only earn Detective Constable "Dangerous" Davies the scorn of his fellow detectives in a small London police station. His boss tells him straight out that he's the last detective he would assign to a major crime-solving mission. Unlucky in love, rumpled, and accident-prone, Dangerous muddles on and, with help from his eccentric friend Mod, he proves the merits of his dogged, unglamorous method. He likes being a detective, and occasionally he gets to do some good.
