The Bill: The Whole Truth (1991)
Season 7, Episode 95
8/10
Poor Datta is harangued by a clever brief.
18 June 2021
Datta is giving evidence against a drink driver, but comes up against an incredibly smart brief. Stringer is assaulted when trying to arrest a car thief.

Jon Cartwright is terrific as Cartwright, The Defence brief, he's wonderfully obnoxious, controlling and ties poor Norika up in knots. He's a smashing actor, if you're a Poirot fan, you'll recognise him from Triangle at Rhodes.

Poor Mr Cope, a nice performance from Bill Gavin, you can't help but feel a lot of sympathy for him. I liked his scene with Norika, it was very natural.

Poor Stringer, that scene where he had a knock on the face, that was realistic. Terry Hopkins made for a good villain, the kind you'd love to lock up, and throw the key away.

Great ending.

8/10.
