The series stars Paul McGann, Sophie Okonedo and Pam Ferris, and follows Patrick Vine (McGann), an enigmatic Professor, who, when not teaching History and Anthropology, runs a sideline in helping people get revenge. As a group of wronged Londoners employ Vine to help exact revenge upon those who have mistreated them, Ellen (Okonedo), who is seeking revenge on her cheating husband, gradually grows closer to Vine. The series was directed by actor David Morrissey.
