Ashes to Ashes

Detective Inspector Alex Drake is shot in 2008 and finds herself transported back in time to 1981, where she is forced to navigate a vastly different world and solve crimes alongside Detective Inspector Sam Tyler.

DCI Gene Hunt returns, this time in London, where he's trading his "Sheriff of Manchester" title for a new challenge. Joined by loyal sidekicks Ray Carling and Chris Skelton, Gene takes on the "southern nancy" criminal underworld. However, his new partner, DI Alex Drake, a single mother and rising star in the Met, shakes things up. When Alex and her daughter are kidnapped, she makes a daring escape, only to find herself transported back to 1981, where she must navigate a world vastly different from her own. With Gene, she must work together to solve cases, but their clashing personalities and 21st-century values create tension.
