Every Breath You Take
sexy_pisces_gal9 July 2006
Series one: Episode 4: When the body of missing Police Sergeant Debbie Britton (Joanne Farrel)is recovered from Lambeth River on his birthday, Boyd (Trevor Eve)and his team must attempt to discover who would want to kill the pretty and heroic young Sergeant who saved two children during a gun raid and was catapulted to instant fame. Deciphering through a delusional stalker, a publicity seeking fake, and married lover.

Things take a different turn however when the body of Debbies stalker is recovered hanging from Lambeth Bridge shot and with a copy of his expose shoved in his mouth and Boyd, Grace (Sue Johnston), Spencer (Will Jonson), Frankie(Holly Aird), and Mel (Claire Goose) must find the killer before someone else is murdered.

Another superb episode from Series one.
Sleepin_Dragon3 March 2018
Boyd's birthday celebrations are cut short, when the missing body of Sergeant Debbie Britton is pulled out of the Thames. The heroic, beautiful and capable Debbie had fallen victim to one of a number of suspects, including a grief stricken husband, and an obsessive stalker, who'd created a fantasy world for himself with Debbie.

Waking the Dead had certainly gathered momentum as the series went on, Every Breath you take reached audience viewing figures that wouldn't come again until Series Six. Part one was an exceptional episode, very strong characters, and a strong narrative. We also get to see a shift in Boyd's nature, characteristics relatively unseen that would continue through to the show's conclusion.

Compelling.
