The enduring character of Scotland Yard's Chief Inspector Rose was first introduced in The Odd Man and It's Dark Outside, Granada's cult crime series of the early '60's, and this sequel sees the acerbic detective emerging from a restless retirement to take on another set of cases. In addition to writing his memoirs and tending his cottage garden on the south coast, Mr. Rose (William Mervyn) finds plenty to keep him occupied. This third and final series sees him tackling crimes ranging from blackmail to murder, art theft to protection rackets, aided by new assistant Robert Trent (Eric Woofe), a number of former colleagues and, on occasion, former villains.
