The Bill (1984)
S16E25 Protect & Survive
Episode Overview
DC Mickey Webb starts his first night shift at Sun Hill, where he teams up with an understaffed officer to track down the dangerous escapee, Craig Ronson. Ronson, who has spent eight years serving a life sentence for armed robbery and murder, is known for having assaulted several officers during his arrest in 1992, as Ackland warns the new recruits. With Quinnan and Smith out due to injuries, Ackland responds to a break-in at a sports complex, only to face an armed man wielding a sledgehammer. Webb arrives and discovers it's Ronson's brother, Colin, whom he questions for leads on Ronson's location. Meanwhile, when Harker vanishes while canvassing the Jasmine Allen, Rickman finds him severely beaten and is then confronted by a furious Ronson.
