    A crackdown begins.

    A clampdown on prostitution begins, a large operation, fronted by Cato is put into operation. One girl, Linda is taken in for questioning, after being warned by Dave.

    An episode you feel would have gone out post watershed, the tone of the show has definitely changed, this one is a very seedy, grim affair, we get to see the real aide of prostitution.

    An interesting story for Dave Quinnan, he has tried to do the right thing, but his advice has clearly fallen on deaf ears. He definitely has a degree of affection for poor Linda.

    Good to see Cato once again mixing it up, he's still loathsome, but isn't afraid to roll his sleeves up, and get stuck in.

    Linda Evans is a good character, a real tragedy, pregnant, on the game and on drugs, unfortunately it's a reality for many women. Claire Lawrence is really good here.

    Another night time story about prostitutes, a theme is definitely starting to develop for series 10.

    7/10.
