WPC 56

WPC 56
On DVD

This new series from the BBC is a lovely blast from the past.  Set in 1956 in England, it is the story of Gina Dawson, the first woman police constable in her hometown.  Gina is constantly having to deal with the sexism, racism and corruption that was the norm in 1956.

Gina sets out to make a difference and eventually the wins the respect of her force. This TV drama follows her professional and home life.  As soon as I finished season 1, I put season 2 on hold.  It really is a pleasure to watch.
