The longer the series runs, the more character based the series becomes. I would for this reason watch up to series 9 maybe 10 and leave it there as the rest is just awful. The change is so vast it become s a parody of itself, similar to how The Bill went in the latter series.

Fresh from the training college, keen, fearless, clueless and so green he's almost luminous! All credit to actor Stephen North for such an excellent portayal. One minute you want to scream at the guy to grow up & get on with it, the o ther, you'll felling sorry for him & wish everyone would just give him a break. Well here we are again! Series 3 has finally arrived and continues in the tradition of great show, great storylines, bugger all extras!

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the box set and enjoyed most of the characters exploits and hated some with a passion (Scase +Pearce again), but you need the provocative characters as every work place has them.......unfortunately.
