Heard some rave reviews of this on the Internet, so I got the DVD from Asda recently.
It was a thriller series shown on ITV in March about an assassin called John Mercer (Cranford's Andrew Buchan) who is forced into working as a troubleshooter for the mysterious Lenny (Peter Mullan). Also part of Lenny's team are an ex-cop (Tamsin Outhwaite) and a tearaway (Shameless' Jody Latham).
Some compare it to Callan and even The Professionals, because of the gruff Scottish boss. Liz White (Life On Mars) also appears as Mercer's sister.
