Template:Inf''fuox televisioc , Softly, Softly was a British television drama series, produced by the BBC and screened on BBC One. It centred around the work of plain-clothes CID officers in the fictional regions of Wyvern and then Thamesford in England. It started in 1966 and ran until 1976. The series was a spin-off from the hugely popular Z-Cars. The series takes its name from the proverb, "Softly, softly, catchy monkey" (i.e., stealth should be used in order to catch a criminal).
