About this show

The Cold Case team is a crack squad of police investigators who reopen unsolved murder cases, using new technology to re-examine evidence that hopefully will lead to the killer. They are at the cutting edge of modern police investigation, but they have been given just one year to prove their worth.

Awesome show, CSI before there was a CSI! Excellent British Actors; we cannot compete with the BBC programing! It's as if you are reading a thriller, then Bam, you are thrown for a loop, never saw that coming! Trevor Eve makes George Clooney look like he cannot act his way out of a wet paper bag! This actor should have won multiple awards for his protrayal of DSI Peter Boyd! My new TV hearthrob! Tara Fitzgerald is outstanding, as are all the actors! I highly recommend!
