Curiosity Killed The Cat

In the murky depths of the 1930's underground jazz scene, saxophonist Marvin "the cat" Welshaw (David Jason) has just been murdered. Struck down in his prime, it's up to straight-laced detective Mickey Finnigan (Stephen Tomkinson) to crack the case along with his trusty sidekick, Gimpy Moe (Chris Barrie). Things get a little rough when the two realise that the cat was actually caught up in an elaborate criminal scheme instigated by a sadistic mob boss (Ross Kemp). Will they crack the case, or will curiosity kill these cats too?
