This two disc set features the four episodes that make up the second instalment of the acclaimed and award nominated George Gently TV series.

Martin Shaw returns to 1960s Northumberland as Inspector George Gently in four feature length films. The series throws Chief Inspector Gently into a maelstrom of murders and mayhem, whilst lovingly recreating the swing sixties as it finally hits the North-East, in perfect and nostalgic detail.

Chief Inspector George Gently is the classic unsung hero of detective fiction and in Martin Shaw's expert hands he becomes a passionate, growling, ex-army boxer. With his sidekick, the ambitious and undisciplined Detective Sergeant John Bacchus, full of warmth and humour. But even the closest partners can come to blows when Gently and Bacchus enter the boxing ring, to raise monies for the police widow's fund-but who will be knocked out for the count of ten?

EPISODE ONE: GENTLY WITH THE INNOCENTS: Gently and Bacchus investigate the murder of the occupant of Harrison House. Their prime suspect is a former resident of the children's home and their investigation leads to the shocking discovery of abuse.

EPISODE TWO: GENTLY IN THE NIGHT: The body of a young woman is discovered in a church. Investigating, Gently and Bacchus uncover the seedy nature of the hostess club where she worked.

EPISODE THREE: GENTLY IN THE BLOOD: During an investigation on the trade in fake passports, a body of a young civil servant is found by the sea alongside her mixed-race baby. Gently uncovers a turf war between rival criminal gangs.
