Rush is the top-rating Channel 10 drama series. Big, bold and broad in its appeal, the show boasts world-class production values and a who's who of credible local talent, including Rodger Corser and Callan Mulvey (Underbelly), Catherine McClements (The Secret Life of Us) and Claire van der Boom (Love My Way, The Square). Rush follows the actions of a critical incident response police unit. They are trained to be smarter, tactically superior and technologically advanced. This is an insider's view of police under pressure - defusing crises, saving lives and preventing crimes before they are committed. Enter the Tactical Response team. Fast and courageous, they are a group of highly-trained young cops, working as a 24-hour mobile team. They are trained in counter-terrorism, advanced weaponry, explosives, bush survival, hand-to-hand combat, and navigation, as well as the psychology of negotiation in hostage situations. A fledgling organisation, they are still on probation. The hierarchy is keeping a close eye on this modern police experiment. They know they are under the microscope and any major slip-up could jeopardise the team. This is unprecedented territory for Australian drama - a police series with a gritty, international flavour. It is impeccably acted, clever and powerful. With an incredible production team responsible for some of the biggest and best local drama over the past decade (The Secret Life of Us, Love My Way), Rush is a fast-paced punch in the face for Australian television.
