U can watch the show on youtube but it is quite blur.
Just key in the words "To catch the uncatchable" and you can strt watching.

Though this show has been quite some time ago, it nice to watch! It livens up your spirits when u feel sad and you forget your miseries n troubles when watching it. I re-watched it again last Dec 2008. It is a comedy n vry funny especially wif dayo wong(黃子華) in there. He is quite a funny comedian..I m his fan..haha. He always wear the same clothes for the whole series n he purposely wear his pants high up making him look stupid..lol. He like to purposely mispronounced "sorry no problem" making it sound like "sor-ly no por-burm" Haha..I laughed through 80% of the whole series cos some parts not so funny so i didn't laugh though. This show has two endings. The original was a sad ending whr Detective Mok dies. Due to the many complaints from ppl in Hong Kong, TVB decided to broadcast an alternative ending whr the cast has to re-filmed the ending show to a "happily ever after". Here is the summary of the show:

Soon after that case is solved, Wai is accused of shoplifting and then becomes the prime suspect in the murder of her boss.
