Bailey has absconded from custody, and he has one aim, to take down Mike Dashwood.
It's a very good, dramatic episode, it's very gritty, it's the kind of storyline that would have worked incredibly well as a ninety minute drama, let alone a twenty four minute episode of The Bill. Not something you often get with this show, but there is a real twist, and a sting in the tail.
It's about time that Dashwood had a meaty storyline, and this is an excellent one, for so long he has felt like window dressing.
It's always good to see Jack Meadows, not long before he would become a regular fixture. Simon Rouse even here as an infrequent visitor just feels so right for the part.
The ever wonderful Nigel Terry is excellent as the villain of the piece, be looks suitably menacing, and is always a first rate villain, the only issue here is that tracksuit he's wearing, plenty of pictures of me in the exact same top as an eleven year old.
Excellent, 9/10.
