Law and Order comes to London

It is the longest running crime drama on US TV, it has spawned equally successful spin-offs and now it is coming to the UK. Yes it is Law and Order UK.

The British version of the successful drama is to be set in London and will mirror the format of the US version. The first part will focus on the police investigation, while the second half will follow the legal process after an arrest.

The lead Police detectives will be played by Bradley Walsh (DS Ronnie Brooks) and Jamie Bamber (DS Matt Devlin), while the stars of the legal half are Ben Daniels (James Steel) and Freema Agyeman (Alesha Phillips).

The first episode titled 'Care' is to be broadcast this Monday on ITV

When the evacuation of a central London hospital leads to the discovery of a tragic death, DS Ronnie Brooks (Bradley Walsh) and DS Matt Devlin (Jamie Bamber) investigate. The trail leads them to Kings Cross, where the redevelopment and gentrification of the area is affecting a number of local residents. But has this led someone to commit murder?
