Burnside(2000)

Back with a Vengeance

Burnside is a British police procedural drama that aired on ITV in 2000. A spin-off from the long-running series The Bill, it follows DCI Frank Burnside as he moves from Sun Hill to the National Crime Squad. The show condenses its narrative into a single series of six episodes, presented as three two-part stories that explore Burnside's cases at his new posting. The drama maintains the procedural style of its parent series while focusing on the detective's transition to a higher-level crime unit. Fans of The Bill will recognize the character's journey from the original show's familiar setting to the more specialized world of national-level investigations.
