The Bill
Home and Away
S17 E13:
Dave and Polly visit a burgled flat, where they find the owner, Mrs Hoyle, who is deaf and blind, tied up in the wardrobe. Chandler is outraged when he finds out about the burglary in the local paper rather than from CID. Back at Sun Hill, Polly urges Dave to tell his wife about their affair. Vicky agrees to go to a charity ball with Boyden. He observes Dave and Polly arriving together and enquires whether there's anything going on between them, but Vicky lies unconvincingly that there isn't. Reg overhears the conversation and news of the affair is soon all over the station. A woman drops a lunchbox into the station for Reg, but does not identify herself as his sister. As Reg has bought two tickets for the ball, the relief are intrigued. Accompanied by a newspaper reporter, the police raid the flat of Mick Corcoran, the prime suspect for the burglary. He makes a run for it but is cornered by Dave and Polly. When he attacks Polly with a pipe, Dave steps in to defend her, but goes berserk, kicking Corcoran so hard that he has to be restrained. Things look bleak for Dave when Corcoran starts convulsing. After shift, the limousine breaks down on the way to the ball and the party take refuge in a country pub, where Jenny finally works out that her husband is having an affair with Polly.
