Secrets of Scotland Yard breaks through the façade of the most famous police headquarters in the world: the very name Scotland Yard is synonymous with all that’s best in the detection of crime. Scotland Yard is the headquarters of one of the oldest police forces in the world – London’s Metropolitan Police Service – known to Londoners as ‘the Met’. Today, 33,000 Scotland Yard police officers safeguard one of the largest cities in Europe, patrolling nearly ten thousand miles of street, more than 200 miles of waterway, six hundred square miles of airspace, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

You won't be disappointed!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Not bad, but not great either. Some interesting historical information and moves along well enough to hold your attention, but overall seems a bit light and shallow. Mostly I just wish it had been a lot more information intense, but that may turn off some other people. The three other people I watched it with felt the same thing--decent and worth watching, but not exceptional. Also, very oddly, the show fails to mention (as far as I noticed) that the diamond in the Millennium Dome heist was replaced with a fake prior to the attempted theft--this is well known and a credit to Scotland Yard, so I can't think of any reason not to mention it.
