Murder City was a British crime drama television series that aired from 2004 to 2006 on ITV1. The show followed Detective Inspector Susan Alembic, played by Amanda Donohoe, and Detective Constable Luke Stone, played by Kris Marshall, as they investigated homicides in London.

Each episode revolved around a single murder case, and the detectives were tasked with piecing together clues, interviewing suspects, and ultimately solving the crime. The show was unique in that it often explored the psychology behind the crimes, delving into the motivations and backgrounds of the perpetrators.

One of the standout elements of Murder City was the dynamic between Donohoe and Marshall’s characters. Susan Alembic was a seasoned detective with a no-nonsense attitude, while Luke Stone was a younger, more tech-savvy officer who often clashed with his partner. Their differing approaches to police work created tension at times, but ultimately they worked well together and were able to solve even the most complex cases.

Another interesting aspect of the show was its use of flashbacks. Throughout each episode, viewers would see glimpses of the events leading up to the murder, slowly piecing together the timeline of events. These flashbacks added an element of suspense to the show, as viewers were left wanting to know more about what had happened and how the pieces fit together.

The show also had a strong supporting cast, including Connor McIntyre as the pathologist and Georgia Mackenzie as a fellow detective. McIntyre’s character provided valuable insights into the physical evidence found at the crime scenes, while Mackenzie’s character provided another perspective on the investigation.

Overall, Murder City was an engaging and thought-provoking crime drama that kept viewers on the edge of their seats. The combination of strong writing, compelling characters, and unique storytelling techniques made it a standout show during its run on ITV1.

Murder City is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (10 episodes). The series first aired on March 17, 2004.
