Red Tape

*Julie Graham’s first episode as Commander Lisa Kennedy*

A violent brawl outside a club results in an allegation of police brutality being levelled against Sergeant Stone (Sam Callis). Sun Hill does its best to exonerate him, but ultimately Superintendent Jack Meadows (Simon Rouse) is powerless to halt his suspension.

Sergeant Jo Masters (Sally Rogers), Sergeant Callum Stone (Sam Callis) and the rest of the team are restless as they drive around waiting for a shout. They get called to a brawl outside Joshua’s night club and Stone leads his troops into the mayhem. P.C Mel Ryder (Rhea Bailey) has to deal with an injured girl who has a stiletto stuck in her groin and is suffering critical bleeding. Stone (Sam Callis) assists her and in the mayhem orders an interfering passer by David Gresham (Philip Perry) to ‘get back’. He pushes him back several times, David goes down and on hitting the ground suffers an epileptic fit. The team are unaware that the whole incident has been filmed on a mobile phone.

During the scuffle the club is robbed, leading Jo Masters (Sally Rogers) to believe that the fight may have been started deliberately to cause a diversion from the robbery.

Darrel Cooper (Aidan Kelly) is arrested on suspicion of starting the fight but is only interested in reporting the ‘assault’ by a police officer on David Gresham (Philip Perry) that he claims he witnessed. The team believe that he is creating a smokescreen to cover up his part in the robbery.

Commander Lisa Kennedy (Julie Graham) is called in to oversee the enquiry into the alleged assault and provide support at Sun Hill for Superintendent Jack Meadows (Simon Rouse). Commander Kennedy (Julie Graham) makes it very clear that she is not happy with the situation and that the team need to be ‘media aware’ of this situation as footage from the incident has already been posted online. Stone is put on station duty whilst an enquiry is carried out.


D.S Stevie Moss (Lucy Speed) and D.C Jacob Banks (Patrick Robinson) question Andrew Gray (Tim Faraday) the owner of Joshua’s Bar about the break in. Gray claims that he has never met Darrel Cooper (Aidan Kelly) who started the fight. He also reveals that the CCTV from the night in question has gone missing. Stevie (Lucy Speed) believes that Darrel Cooper is almost certainly behind the robbery and believes if they can prove this then they can discredit his allegations towards Stone.


Stevie (Lucy Speed) discovers that Andrew Gray (Tim Faraday) has been making regular payments to Darrel Cooper (Aidan Kelly) despite claiming never to have met him. She believes Cooper is running an illegal debt collecting firm and that Gray knows a lot more about the robbery than he’s letting on. Stevie’s suspicions are confirmed when she finds Gray’s ‘stolen’ cheque book as well as the club’s CCTV footage in the toilets of the club.
The situation seems to be looking up for Stone when David Gresham (due to personal reasons) decides to drop criminal charges against Stone. However when Commander Kennedy and Superintendent Meadows review CCTV footage of the incident it looks as though Stone did in fact punch David Gresham and they decide that Stone will still have to face disciplinary action and is immediately suspended from duty.
