Between The Lines: Vol.2 - Lies and Damned Lies

3 more episodes of the hard-hitting BAFTA award winning police drama starring Neil Pearson Detective Superintendent Tony Clark steps over to the dark world of internal investigations.... Lies & Damned Lies At last Shibden case has been put to bed. The charges against the 3 CID officers accusing of beating up prostitute and drug addict Mary Shibden have reached a dead end. Until ambitious Tory MP James Hardcastle gets hold of the story. What better vehicle to carry him into the political limelight than that emotional issue of law and order? For Clark, the pressure from his governors to get a result is the last thing he needs, even if sucess does mean a ticket into off duty barbecue territory. His marriage is breaking down and as truth becomes all important in the case, he finds his lies catching up with him at home... A Watch & Chain Of Course D.A.C Dunning's on the up in the provinces and he's keen to take like-minded officers with him-a passport to promotion for Tony Clark, if he gets a result on the Carswell's case. Released after serving 18 months on a fitted up murder charge, Michael Carswell's baying for police blood and he's got the press on his side. Trouble is, with Mo already undercover investigating a spot of cash and carry at Amberley Rd, Clark team is looking too stretched to come up with the result Dunning needs. And the identity of the key witness just might deal the final blow... Lest Ye Be Judged With the embrassing investigation of the South Lancashire police already grabbing the media headlines , the last thing the force needs is another unsafe conviction. But the case of Teddy Dicks just won't lie down. Did D.I. Kendrick really beat his confession out of him? Local reporter Molly Cope seems to think so. As Clark's investigation gathers steam along with his passion for her, he becomes increasingly doubtful of Dicks' innocence not to mention the state of his own professional scruples... © BBC/Island World Production
