Thief Takers(1996)

Thief Takers is a British police drama series that follows a team of detectives in the Metropolitan Police Service's Flying Squad. Each episode presents a self-contained case, though some stories span two parts, while ongoing drama emerges from the officers' personal lives and relationships with their families. The series balances procedural crime-solving with character-driven storytelling, offering insight into both the high-stakes work of catching criminals and the toll it takes on those who do it. Produced by Central Independent Television for ITV, the show aired a pilot in 1995 before three full series ran between 1996 and 1997.
