Episode list


Tie-in novel

A novel by Cooper, also called ''Shadow of the Noose'', was published at the time the series was transmitted. The narrative of the novel mainly comprises a vast expansion of the story of Marshall Hall's first marriage to Ethel and her subsequent death, as featured in ''Gone for a Soldier''. The book ends with the Marie Hermann case from ''An Alien Shore''.


Home media

Although the complete series was never released on commercial home video, ''An Alien Shore'' and ''Gun in Hand'' appeared on Vol. 1 Nos. 3 and 8 of ''BBC Video World'', a fortnightly subscription-only service, primarily for expatriates, issued in May and July 1989 respectively. The complete series was released on DVD in early 2017.
