Detective Superintendent Sandra Pullman is back heading up her team of retired detectives who don?t always do things by the book but always get results.
In series nine, Sandra has a new recruit, former DI Steve McAndrew who is a bundle of energetic optimism with a tendency to get under the skin of the cases he?s working on.
Breaking rules and ignoring procedure are all in a day?s work for Pullman?s team, but even by Gerry Standing?s and Brian Lane?s standards, Steve?s unorthodox approach to policing raises a few eyebrows.
With the usual mix of superb characters, intriguing storylines and sharp dialogue, New Tricks is as spirited as ever.
