A not so Happy new year.

Sun Hill are put on high alert when a vicious thug en route to Sun Hill from Sheffield, escapes custody.

It's a very good seasonal episode, Christmas didn't seem to happen at Sun Hill, but The New Year is at least being celebrated. Good story this one, there's a bit of grit here, and a particularly nasty thug.

It features one absolutely brilliant twist, one of the best I can remember on The Bill.

1991 was a good year for The Bill, some episodes, and specials on both Christmas Eve and New year's Eve. It was one of those shows that so many people watched.

The thought of travelling from London to anywhere by train on New Year's Eve, shudders.

Yorkie is back at Sun Hill, with some impressive moustaches.

Great to see Caroline Quentin here, a fairly small part, and a very young Sarah Lancashire. Margot Leicester is great here though.

An early appearance from Lisa Geoghan, who would of course return in a little while as show favourite Polly Page, only a small role for her here, good though.

8/10.
