The Bill: Put Down (1993)
Season 9, Episode 139
8/10
Put to sleep?
3 August 2021
An elderly man is found dead in his bed, Monroe attends the scene and feels something isn't quite right, speaking to his daughter, she hints that her mother has caused his death.

It's a pretty sinister watch, a very murky crime, Hazel seems a little hysterical initially, Mrs Mullen seems clear minded and level headed, but which one of them is telling the truth? It's a really interesting watch.

It builds as a story as more elements and revelations are thrown into the mix, the ending does come as a bit of a surprise, it's well written.

Family dynamics are always, especially in situations like this, where one of its members is severely ill, and perhaps pushed to extremes.

The wonderful Jeillo Edwards is so good, she's bursting with charisma, such a lovely actress, and of course the wonderful Lesley Nightingale as the dubious GP.

Very good, 8/10.
