History     1992

The year started off with Quinnan being the subject of a civil complaint (A Friend In Need); Lines became involved in a pub brawl and uncovered a loan-sharking business (Lip Service); and the womanising Boyden took a fancy to an illegal immigrant (Illegals). MS15 encouraged Reid to apply to join them (Dinosaur); Brownlow was put in a difficult situation when a girl was seriously injured in a joyriding incident (Joyride); and Cryer worked undercover as a punter in a brothel raid (Mates). 

Stringer saw a child run down by a train whilst Peters became Duty Sergeant, swapping jobs with Cryer (Chicken); Reid was promoted out of Sun Hill to MS15 (Somebody Special); and Dashwood applied for a job in a firm of security consultants to uncover their fraudulent activities (It's A Small World). Ron Smollett's Kingsmead Estate community police station was blown up (Comeback); Sun Hill investigated IRA arms deals (The Paddy Factor and The Wild Rover); and Dashwood was taken prisoner by hooded burglars (Going Soft).

DCI Jack Meadows (pictured) joined Sun Hill (Re-Hab); French went undercover as a drugs courier (Acting Detective); and Marshall became a vital witness in a murder trial (Trials and Tribulations). Martella investigated a series of artifice burglaries involving pensioners (Up Behind); Stringer and Loxton suspected an ex-copper running an old people's home of ill-treating the residents (Priorities); and Stringer won the election for Fed-Rep, beating Hollis by fifty-eight votes to two, whilst Brownlow decided to eat in the canteen with the other ranks - much to their discomfort (Man Of The People). 

Marshall went on attachment with the Domestic Violence Unit at Stafford Row (Better The Devil) and made an error of judgement resulting in her being attacked by a woman's husband (World To Rights); and Ackland crashed the Area Car whilst trying to assist Stamp on an estate (Hiding To Nothing). Marshall decided to quit the Domestic Violence Unit (Punching Judy); and Dashwood left Sun Hill with a transfer to the Art and Antiques Squad (Part of the Furniture). Garfield was badly beaten up by a burglar and Boyden, who should have come to his rescue, was having an affair with Roach's lover (Up All Night) - but Garfield eventually got his revenge (Snakes and Ladders).

Garfield  was accused of sexually asaulting a young girl and Reid (pictured), from MS15, was brought in to interview him (A Scandalous Act); a civilian typist was discovered by Monroe and Cryer to be having an affair with a known villain (Soft Target); and Greig and Woods detained a man who was helping old people kill themselves (I've Never Been To Harrogate). Donna Harris was drafted in to re-enact the last moments of a victim's life (Travelling Light); Loxton came under scrutiny for using excessive force when making an arrest (Force Is Part Of The Service); and a blackmail attempt forced Quinnan to admit to his bosses that he was moonlighting as an electrician (Open to Offers).

New PC Polly Page (pictured) arrived at the station (Spit and Polish); Burnside was unsuccessful when he went for a promotion at Scotland Yard (Overdue); and Maitland found himself in the wrong when he discovered a dangerous psychopathic man who had been arrested twice for the same offence was released (Minefield). PC Gary McCann joined the relief (Just Send Some Flowers); Meadows had to show that the law was supreme over the rule of vigilantes (Cold Shoulder); and Dashwood, now with the Art and Antiques Squad, took a case away from Carver and got a result (Finders Keepers), later doing the same to Lines when a collection of valuable dolls was stolen (Return Match).
