1/6 - Towers of Silence
Det Supt Boyd, owner of the best beard on TV, and his intense cold case squad, return for a new series. This first story, which ends tomorrow, is a typically multi-layered mystery about the killings of a Heathrow Airport baggage handler, found mutilated in a water tower, and a man whose mummified body is in the hold of a decommissioned jumbo. Boyd himself (Trevor Eve) is even more twitchy and distracted than ever - it seems he's still tormented by the murder of young Mel in the last series. Poor psychological profiler Grace (Sue Johnston) tries to keep him from turning into a total sociopath. Watch for a strangely brief guest appearance by Little Britain's David Walliams, in a straight role as a shadowy cop. It's all very odd...
