In Ashes to Ashes season 2 episode 1, the viewers are re-introduced to the main character, DI Alex Drake, who is still trapped in the 1980s. She is still trying to figure out how to return to the present day and is eager to find any clues that might help her in her mission. The first episode of the second season starts off with a bang as a car bomb goes off in front of the police station, killing a number of officers.
As DI Drake investigates the case, she realizes that something sinister is happening in the underworld of 1980s London. Her investigation is initially hampered by the fact that she is still seen as an outsider by many of her colleagues, who are still getting used to her methods and her insistence on following procedures. However, she soon begins to make progress by talking to witnesses and piecing together the clues.
One of the key witnesses is a young boy who was in the vicinity of the explosion. However, the boy is too scared to reveal anything to the police, so DI Drake has to take a different approach to get the information she needs. She forms a bond with the boy and earns his trust, which eventually leads to a breakthrough in the case.
As the investigation progresses, DI Drake also finds herself having to deal with some personal issues. Her relationship with DCI Gene Hunt is strained, and she starts to question whether he is helping or hindering her. In addition, she is haunted by nightmares of her daughter and wonders if her quest to return to the present day is worth risking never seeing her daughter again.
The episode is filled with twists and turns, as DI Drake and her team race against time to prevent another attack. As the pieces of the puzzle start to fall into place, the tension builds, leading to a dramatic conclusion that leaves the viewers on the edge of their seats.
Overall, Ashes to Ashes season 2 episode 1 is a thrilling start to the new season, with plenty of action, suspense, and drama. The episode sets the stage for what promises to be an exciting ride for fans of the show.
