'New Tricks' Season 10 Premieres on KCET

A new season of "New Tricks," featuring a (you guessed it) new cast, is coming to KCET.

Season 10 of the popular police drama premieres today at 8 p.m. Each episode will also stream online for one week. This season, the discovery of a mysterious gun in the River Thames re-opens the unsolved 1998 murder of a playboy shipping heir, leading the UCOS team to the Rock of Gibraltar.

Up until this season, Detective Superintendent Sandra Pullman (played by Amanda Redman) has led the police unit of retired detectives investigating unsolved crimes. The penultimate episode of the season finds the fearless sleuth replaced by Detective Chief Inspector Sasha Miller (Tamzin Outhwaite).

This season also introduces another new face, Nicholas Lyndhurst (who plays Danny Griffin), when alum Alun Armstrong (Brian Lane) leaves the series in the fourth episode of the season. James Bolam exited in 2012 when his character Jack Halford died from a terminal illness. Denis Lawson (Steve McAndrew) took his place, which now leaves just Dennis Waterman (Gerry Standing) from the original cast.

Here are the episodes airing this season, every Monday at 8 p.m.:
