Ian Hood is a science
professor and he works as a consultant on special dangerous cases. He is a special advisor to the
government’s Joint Sciences Committee.
Rachel Young is a Special Branch agent and she is always with Ian as his
protection. These are the titles and breakdown for these episodes:
Resurrection: Investigation of human cloning.
Containment: An outbreak of a hybrid
smallpox/tanapox virus.
Kryptos: A scientist vanishes, there is
a mystery about his climate research.
Miracle: Young boy is healed from a
tumor by the waters of a local spring.
I thought all the
episodes were good and they are from a different perspective. Hood and Young are hard hitting
investigators and they don’t give up easily. Hood has a government badge and that gets him into a lot of
places. Young is a Detective
Sergeant on special assignment.
Smaller police stations in the UK usually have five Detective Constables
(DC) with a Detective Sergeant (DS) in overall command. 3 ½* (I liked this series)
90
min each, 2 discs, 4 episodes, TV, Sci-Fi directed by Stephen Gallagher with
Patrick Stewart, Ashley Jensen, Jane Lapotaire.
Note: Imdb 6.9 out of 10, tv.com 8.3 out of
10 with 137 votes, Amazon 3.5* out of 5* with 36 reviews.
Special
Note: Filmed in Manchester,
Greater Manchester, England, UK.
This program had potential but there were not enough viewers in the UK
to continue the episodes. There is
a US remake produced by Jerry Bruckheimer with Rufus Sewell that aired on CBS
from 2008 to 2009.
