《哈莱姆教父》由克里斯·布兰卡托和保罗·埃克斯坦创作，奥斯卡奖得主福里斯特·惠特克担任主演和执行制片人，灵感来自臭名昭著的犯罪头目Bumpy Johnson(惠特克饰)的故事，他在20世纪60年代初从11年的监狱中回来，发现他曾经统治的社区一片混乱。随着街道被意大利暴徒控制，跛豪必须采取热那亚犯罪家族夺回控制权。在残酷的战斗中，他与激进的传教士马尔科姆·X结成联盟，在社会动荡和一场威胁撕裂城市的暴徒战争的十字准星上抓住了马尔科姆的政治崛起。《哈莱姆教父》讲述了在美国历史上最动荡的时期之一，黑社会犯罪与民权运动的碰撞。

　　The main story is set in a British Military Intelligence Office in Whitehall during 1956, where a small group of foreign affairs analysts find their quiet existence disrupted by the Suez Crisis. Ewan McGregor plays Mick Hopper, who is doing his national service as an interpreter of Russian documents. Bored with his job, Hopper spends his days creating fantasy daydreams that involve his work colleagues breaking into contemporary hit songs. Louise Germaine plays Sylvia Berry, the blonde wife of the violent Corporal Pete Berry (Douglas Henshall). Sylvia is an object of desire for Mick's fellow clerk Private Francis Francis and a middle-aged pipe-organist named Harold Atterbow (Roy Hudd). Unlike the street-wise Hopper, Francis is a clumsy Welsh intellectual whose academic career has been interrupted by his army call up. The appearance of the bookish niece of a seconded American officer enables the two conscripts to pair off with suitable partners, after initial mismatching. Some of the side themes include the influence of American rock and roll on English society, the gulf between the senior analysts, who are regular army officers, and the conscripted other ranks, the work of Russian playwright Chekhov, and the appreciation of opulent theatre pipe organs. The unusual context — a military culture transplanted into a civil service style office environment — reflects Potter's own national service during the 1950s. While this piece has the form of a romantic comedy, unlike the less conventional works of Dennis Potter's middle period, it is not without graphic sex and violence, as well as Potter's characteristic flashes of dreamlike imagery. The centrepiece of this production is the surreal musical sequence set to the song In a Persian Market.

　　New DCI John Barnaby arrives in Midsomer and is bemused by the quaint villages and their quirky residents.
