Ashes to Ashes

When DI Alex Drake is shot and lands in 1981, she comes face-to-face with DCI Gene Hunt.

It's the week of the Royal Wedding, and CID is under pressure to keep the streets quiet.

When a prostitute complains of rape, Alex has a tough time convincing Gene to take the case seriously.

The body of a worker at a nuclear research centre disappears from the morgue.

Simon Neary is a gangster Gene has wanted to nail for years.

Alex thinks she's close to death and has to keep her brain alive by solving the case: a raid at a Post Office.

Thousands of pounds collected for charity have been stolen, and the only lead is the man who raised it.

It's the biggest day of Alex's life: the day her parents were killed.
