Description
Jill Gascoine stars as Detective Inspector Maggie Forbes in this exciting and ground-breaking ITV police series from the 1980s.

Maggie is assigned to Seven Dials Police Station in the heart of Central London, right next to the city's infamous Soho district - an area where life is cheap and rank corruption and depravity are everywhere. Unlike her cynical and hard-edged male colleagues on the force, she has a gentler, more sympathetic approach to the human tragedies she encounters and it's an approach that gets results. Maggie Forbes seems like a woman with a brilliant career ahead of her - until a devastating family tragedy almost shatters her life.
