''~~\|DS Sandra Pullman}}~~ \|DS Sandra Pullman}} ''[[New Tricks]]'' (2005-2015) iswas a [[The BBC\|BBC]] [[Crime and Punishment Series\|crime]] comedy/drama about the investigations of the Metropolitan Police's (fictional) Unsolved Crimes and Open Cases Squad (UCOS). Although mostly a [[Mystery of the Week]] [[Police Procedural]], it also combines a hint of [[Amateur Sleuth]] in that most of the members of the squad are actually ''retired'' policemen employed to investigate unsolved crimes. The only serving police officer on the squad is the boss, Detective Superintendent '''Sandra Pullman''' (Amanda Redman), an uptight, tough-as-nails investigator. Her previously high-flying career came crashing down to earth through an unfortunate [[Kick the Dog\|dog-shooting]] [[My Greatest Failure\|incident]], resulting in her reluctant appointment to the newly created UCOS. Faced with an unappealing selection of job applicants, she recruited: * '''Jack Halford''' (James Bolam), an ex-Detective Chief Superintendent and Pullman's old boss and mentor, who left the job in grief over the unsolved hit-and-run death of his beloved wife Mary.
