Dempsey and Makepeace
This detective drama series was based around two mismatched
detectives:- Lieutenant James Dempsey was a tough New York cop who
found himself in a lot of trouble when he killed his partner
during a corruption investigation in his own Department.
Dempsey was seconded to a new undercover section of Scotland
Yard known as SI-10 for his own protection while the heat died
down within the NYPD.
In London, Dempsey was partnered with a
beautiful female - Detective Sergeant Harriet Makepeace (who
preferred to be known as "Harry").
Working under the extremely watchful eye of Chief
Superintendent Gordon Spikings, Dempsey and Makepeace never ever
agreed with each other's methods but they still managed to
consistently get the bad guys.
Co-stars Michael Brandon and Glynis Barber married in real-life
on 18 November 1989.
