Z-Cars or Z Cars (pronounced "zed cars") was a British televisionpolice procedural series centred on the work of mobile uniformed police in the fictional town of Newtown, based on Kirkby, near Liverpool. Produced by the BBC, it debuted in January 1962 and ran until September 1978.
The series differed sharply from earlier police procedurals. With its less-usual Northern England setting, it injected a new element of harsh realism into the image of the police, which some found unwelcome.[citation needed]
Z-Cars ran for 801 episodes, of which fewer than half have survived.
