'advertise' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'police drama' is the wordplay.
'police' becomes 'dis' (detective inspectors or DIs).
'drama' becomes 'play' (synonyms).
'dis'+'play'='DISPLAY'

'those involved in' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for display that I've seen before include "Exhibit, show" , "Show or arrange" , "Place on show" , "Showcase" , "Demonstrate, show" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
