Yeah it started with new shackle camera man, then kidiecop who they just couldnt stop inserting into every epp despite her inability to speak, then to kill it off fully they added mood music and shacky cameramans drunk mate.
Such a shame the BBC have tried several times to fill this Police dramas hole and failed, instead they have sucked the old cast into their shows and mostly failed. Its the shame that Mikies last airing in EE in was a one night stand of Kats.
IMO Beth killed the bill, just like Amy from Emerdale will kill casulty
