New Tricks, TV review: Predictable fun held together by a relatively predictable cast

A mystery that proved easier to solve, was the one facing the detectives in BBC1’s New Tricks. Tasked with discovering who killed a vicar in 2006, the team had to delve deep inside a family with no intention of giving up its secrets. And all while contending with the indignity of being supervised by new “acting head” Ted Case, played by Larry Lamb.
