I have stumbled across another hidden gem on BBC1 weekday afternoons - WPC 56.

Set in the 1950s with appropriate music and background it focuses on a rookie WPC who is the first woman police officer in a Black Country/Birmingham police station.

It highlights the bigotry and attitudes within the police force at that time, has surprisingly gritty story lines for its time slot and the occasional sparkle of humour.

Third episode tomorrow, previous episodes available on iPlayer and Catch up tv.

I'm hooked already - fab characters, casting, plots and lovely old cars.

I'm enjoying it to. Hope the nasty seargent gets his come-uppance!
Oh thank you, never heard of it, can't get iplayer or catchup so will try other means.
Thanks for the reminder, I knew it was going to be on but somehow forgot again. I'll have to set the recorder for the rest and catch up on iplayer.

Can't understand why its on daytime tv - perfect Sunday night prime time show.
Just watched part one on iPlayer....super really enjoyed it....Will have to squeeze in part two before 2pm......thanks for bringing this to my notice -hc
Thank you hc4361 for bringing this to my attention, I love it! x ♥
I'll have a look hc4361, only for the cars mind !.
I agree it would be better on a sunday [even if it was only for the ratings]. There's a load of crap on saturday and sunday nights now in my opinion!
It was great - but should have been Sunday evening family viewing!
