DI Amanda Drummond

Newly promoted to Detective Inspector, Drummond has come a long way since series one; yes, she's by-the-book but she's also an instinctive copper. When we meet her in series two, the fiercely ambitious Drummond is trying to navigate misogynistic office politics alongside harbouring insecurities that she rode on Ray Lennox's coat tails on the Confectioner case. She's also in a mutually distrustful relationship with her many cats and is drinking too much on a weeknight. When the opportunity for further promotion arises, Drummond is hungry for it, but there are obstacles in her way: her devious colleague Tommy Stark and her own past mistakes. Drummond is a staunch enforcer of the law, but she may have to break it to get what she wants. DCS
