探案新窍门 第七季

BBC的关于大都会警察局“悬疑旧案”部门的喜剧。小组的头是女DS桑德拉普尔曼，既然是和旧事有关，索性就招聘了3个退休侦探：杰克把死去的爱妻埋在后院每天和她聊天，盖里年轻时有名的花心如今要和三个前妻四个女儿共进晚餐，布莱恩是个强迫症、前酒徒和阴谋论者。标题取自一句老话：“You can't teach meijubar.net an old dog new tricks（老家伙学不来新窍门）”。这帮老家伙却成功地在新时代用他们的经验和技，那些疑难案件正中了看似过时的老窍门的道。Some years after her wealthy father died of a heart attack confronting an intruder - who fled empty-handed - Vicky Anderson asks Sandra and the team to intervene, since clairvoyant Sebastian Carter, having supposedly communed with the dead man, claims he knew the assailant. Sandra is sceptical, feeling Carter is in league with the would-be burglar and using Vicky to get at what he wanted that night. The trail leads to Penny, Vicky's adopted sister, taken in by Anderson after her father died in prison serving a sentence for fraud, and Simon Beswick, the cell-mate, who tells the team he thinks Anderson was also guilty of fraud and the burglar a double-crossed partner-in-crime after the spoils. Sandra is still unsure if Carter is an accomplice or an innocent dupe though, when the case is closed, his interpretation of her father's feelings brings her closer to half-brother Tom.
