Duggan: Death in Paradise (1997) A very New Zealand whodunnit in the tradition of Taggart and Morse, Duggan: Death in Paradise introduces us to Detective Inspector John Duggan, the laconic Kiwi detective. Filmed amidst the stunning scenery of New Zealand's great outdoors, Duggan: Death in Paradise is a tale full of twists and surprises.
Sins of the Fathers (1998) When a plane crashes into the bush Duggan, a shrewd detective on self-imposed leave, finds himself caught up in what seems to be no accident. Sins of the Fathers is a tale of revenge, blackmail and passion - all the right ingredients for a gripping telefeature.
Following on from the success of Duggan: Death in Paradise and Sins of the Fathers a series of 11 one hour dramas was produced for Television ONE in 1998/1999.
