Between The Lines
is set in the Complaints Investigation
Bureau (CIB) - the department responsible
for investigating other police officers
- of London's Metropolitan Police.
The first two series had stories based
around various different aspects of
the darker side of the police, ranging
from such topics as petty corruption,
racism and sexual harassment through
to grand conspiracy, with some plot
threads running through the series
over several episodes. The series
also dealt with the personal lives
of it's less-than-clean-cut characters,
particularly the womanising lead character
Tony Clark, and is also notable for
its inclusion of a lesbian character
in a major role. In the third and
final series, the focus changed significantly,
moving away from the police force
to other areas of security and espionage.
Roger appeared in three episodes: -

- "The End User - Part 2"

Free Trade
When vigilantes posing as police officers
shoot four drug dealers and hospitalise
another, Tony Clark and his team are
called in by Deakin to find out what
the police know. But complications
arise when Mo is contacted by her
ex-boss DCI Lawson.
The End User (part 1)
Sarah returns from America much to
Tony's delight, but then Deakin sends
him to Belgium to go undercover as
a right-wing gunrunner.
The End User (part 2)
Enough guns to start a civil war could
be on their way to Belfast. MI5 may
be to blame, but the only traitors
in the loyalists' sights are Tony
and Harry.
