Synopsis

Black And Blue is a memorable and hard-hitting single drama from G.F. Newman that follows a black West Country PC who is drafted into the Met.

He is instructed to work undercover on a run-down council estate after the murderer of a local politician who was investigating rumours that the local CID had been secretly killing off drug dealers. Newman remains a formidable thorn in the side of the Establishment.
