Dover and the Smoking Gun

Was Sergeant MacGregor's old flame murdered? Chief Inspector Dover heads to Glasgow to find out. Stars Kenneth Cranham.

MacGregor takes leave to return to Glasgow for the funeral of an old flame.

But was her death a tragic accident or foul play?

Reluctant to leave London as usual, Chief Inspector Dover heads north to help his grief-stricken colleague find out the truth.

Starring Kenneth Cranham and Stuart McQuarrie.

Wilfred Dover is Scotland Yard's most unwanted man.

He's a rather rude, dishevelled, glutton, who is sent out of London to help other police forces solve local crimes along with his long-suffering 'gofer', Sergeant MacGregor.

Despite his objectionable demeanour, Dover has an uncanny knack of solving crimes.
