As the series continues with "The Final Act," the gripping conclusion to one of the world's greatest television detective franchises, Tennison is facing retirement and the death of her father. Darkness surrounds her as her life falls apart and she seeks answers at the bottom of a whiskey bottle.
The tenacious, difficult and brilliant Jane Tennison (Helen Mirren) stormed onto PBS in 1992 with Prime Suspect. By the time the series ended in 2006, not only had an iconic character come to worldwide acclaim, but the crime series genre itself had been transformed. From a new frame on feminism to the illumination of critical social issues, Prime Suspect and Jane Tennison left an indelible impression. Admired by critics and audiences alike, Prime Suspect won more than 20 international awards, including Emmys for "Outstanding Miniseries" and "Outstanding Actress" for Helen Mirren.
