Episode 1
January 1986. Industry Year. Rummidge, that lovely, sprawling Midlands city raked by motorways, reluctantly confronts another working week. On our right, Mr Vic Wilcox - dynamic, self-made managing director appointed to 'turn round' a struggling engineering firm. On our left, Dr Robyn Penrose - university lecturer in English Literature and expert on the Victorian industrial novel. They have no notion of each other's existence; the piece of paper that will bring them together lies in a recycled envelope at the bottom of someone's in-tray....
Episode 2
Sexually, Vic and Robyn's lives are as far apart as they are professionally. The Shadow Scheme continues on its bumpy course as Vic, a week later, drives Robyn from Rummidge up north on a confidential business investigation. But their weekly appointment grows in significance, as they begin to make surprising discoveries.

Vic acts on Robyn's advice to educate the workforce and addresses a meeting - with an unexpected interruption.
Basil turns up unannounced, with disturbing news of Charles's research in the City of London. And as the Shadow Scheme draws to an end, Vic presses Robyn to accompany him on a vital business trip to Germany.
Episode 4
Summer Term. Robyn returns to Rummidge to find urgent messages from Vic and Charles - and from Philip Swallow, inviting her to meet a famous American visitor. What will happen to Robyn and Vic in their relationship and their careers? The endings of the Victorian novels taught by Robyn may provide clues.

Dept. Q
DCI Carl Morck is a brilliant cop but a terrible colleague. His razor-sharp sarcasm has made him no friends in Edinburgh police. After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Department Q; a newly formed cold case unit. The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him. But more by accident than design, Carl starts to build a gang of waifs and strays who have everything to prove. So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.
