Episode Chronology:
Episode 111 is the 1768th episode of The Bill. The alternative name is Moving Target: Part 1
It's an eventful day for Sgt Matt Boyden. Having discovered the identity of Abi's father, he confronts the girl's mother, his hated colleague Acting DI Sam Nixon, threatening to tell the tearaway teen everything he knows. Then he gets a blast from the past when his own estranged, crack-addicted daughter Amy is found and brought in for questioning. But it soon becomes clear none of these loose ends will ever be tied when the dodgy sergeant answers a seemingly routine callout to a suspect package - only to fall victim to a drive-by shooting. (For the answer to who pulled the trigger and why, see Moving Targets (MIT) .)
Notes[]
- A trailer for MIT: Murder Investigation Team, Episode 1 replaces the customary "Next on The Bill" sequence at the end of the episode. This was deleted when the episode was broadcast on UKTV Gold.
- Final regular appearance of Sgt Matthew Boyden (Tony O'Callaghan).
