DCI Alex Drake (Keeley Hawes) is also thrown into the mix after suffering a horrific accident in 2008 and finding herself in 1981 alongside Hunt and his team. Glenister explained that Gene Hunt was popular with real police officers because he spent his time catching criminals rather than doing paperwork.
