description: Long regarded an anachronism and a thorn in the side of its superiors the Peculiar Crimes Unit is to be disbanded. For octogenarian detectives Arthur Bryant and John May it seems retirement is now the only option. But then a headless body is found in a freezer and on the perimeter of a massive construction site near King's Cross a gigantic figure has been spotted - dressed in deerskin and sporting antlers made of knives and suddenly with limited resources and very little time the PCU are back in business. In the panoply of great fictional detective duos Bryant &amp; May rank alongside (and somewhere in between) Holmes &amp; Watson and Mulder &amp; Scully.
