Bulman is a Granada TV series which ran from 1985–1987 and followed the fortunes of the major character from the earlier XYY Man and Strangers series.

Bulman was based - increasingly loosely - on the character featured in the XYY Man novels by Kenneth Royce.

In this incarnation, Don Henderson appeared again as former Detective Chief Inspector George Bulman, ostensibly retired from police work and repairing old clocks but active as a private investigator, with Lucy McGinty (played by Siobhan Redmond) as his (Scottish) assistant (the character was intended to be Irish, with a line explaining her accent added once Redmond was cast). They are frequently drawn into the clandestine world of the secret service through the machinations of security chief Dugdale (Thorley Walters) or Bulman's one-time police boss Lambie (Mark McManus).
