This episode list gives brief descriptions and some other details of the episodes of the ITV television series Minder, set in contemporary London. The earliest episodes focus on Terry McCann, a former professional boxer, who has served time in jail and is determined not to return there. He finds himself in the orbit of Arthur Daley, a middle-aged car salesman and self-described entrepreneur working on the edge of (and often beyond) the law in pursuit of a quick profit. Terry works for Arthur as an assistant/bodyguard (known as a 'minder'), and is often loaned out by Arthur to work for others in a similar capacity. Over the course of the first three series, the focus of the show shifts so that the ever-scheming Arthur moves from being a supporting character to co-lead with Terry.
