The Tower (2021) is a British police procedural adapted from Kate London’s Metropolitan book series. It stars Gemma Whelan as police officer Sarah Collins.

In the 2nd series, there is a dangerous man who has been beating up his partner. Mark Brannon (Charley Palmer Rothwell) was in foster care as a child and is aided in evading the police by his friend, who was also in foster care.

There is, as well, a less stereotypical story when a ‘posh’ man is charged child sexual abuse and murder.
