Series 2 - update At a loss to discover the guilty party in a spate of armed robberies, A-Division goes to prison to escort notorious safe-cracker Dickie Fingers (Steve Evets) for interview back at CID. However as they transport him out of the gaol they are set upon by a dangerous gang who will stop at nothing to get their hands on Fingers. As his mentor Superintendent Harry Woolf presides over the investigation, DCI Gene Hunt is keener than ever to show off his team’s effectiveness and they head straight for chief suspect Arnold Malone (Stephen Bent) who tips them off about the next robbery. Jaws drop in the CID unit when their first black team member arrives, DC Glenn Fletcher. Sam is taken a back, not by Fletcher’s ethnicity, but in realising that Fletcher is his own mentor from 2006. Glenn becomes the butt of Ray’s shockingly racist jibes and yet seems happy to put up with it, something the modern Glenn Fletcher would never do. Sam tries to inspire Glenn to believe more in himself and not stand for Ray’s cheap humour. |
