You may never look at police officers the same way again after you see Rowan Atkinson ("Mr. Bean," "Black Adder") as Inspector Raymond Fowler of the Gasforth Police in this new import from Britain. The mild mannered and conscientious Inspector Fowler is in charge of the uniform officers in the department. He is always clashing with Detective Inspector Derek Grim (David Haig), who yearns for some exciting cases in this sleepy London suburb.

Episode Descriptions:

#101 THE QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY PRESENT
Patricia (Serena Evans) and Fowler (Rowan Atkinson) are about to mark the 10th anniversary of their relationship. She thinks he's planning to give her a present, but he's actually preparing to celebrate the queen's birthday. Meanwhile, Grim (David Haig) is attempting to police the shadowy alleyways of the information super-highway. Unfortunately he can't figure out how to turn on his computer.

#102 FIRE AND TERROR
Habib (Mina Anwar) falls for a handsome fireman, and Goody (James Dreyfus) is green with envy. Grim is onto the case of his career, while Fowler is being plagued by an insane hoaxer who claims to have had morning coffee with Lord Lucan.

#103 RAG WEEK
Fowler and Patricia are each held up at the bank. Fowler's hold-up is a man with a huge pile of change and a math problem, but Patricia's situation is more serious. Grim is on the phone to the home office; Kray (Kevin Allen) is on the phone to the kebab shop. Complications ensue.

#104 HONEY TRAP
Grim needs a woman to serve as a decoy in a plan to snare Terry the Tank. His first choice is Habib, dressed up in her sexiest outfit. However, the local pub's quiz final is approaching, and the station can't win without Habib's brains. Unfortunately, Terry the Tank drinks at the pub where the final is being held, and Grim can't risk blowing her cover. He must find a replacement, but how would Gladstone (Rudolph Walker) or Goody look in a miniskirt?

#105 NIGHT SHIFT
During the night shift, teenage hoodlums and juvenile delinquents crowd the station. Patricia can't wait to get out of the company of adolescents, but unfortunately, Fowler's son is visiting. Meanwhile, Grim is called to work on a case with Scotland Yard, and Fowler has a hard time admitting that he's jealous.

#106 KIDS TODAY
When a baby is abandoned at the station, Patricia's reaction prompts Fowler to point out that there is no place in the queen's uniform for ill-disciplined hormones. Habib is being harassed by fascists, and she can look after herself, but unfortunately, Goody tries to do it for her. Fowler is planning a camping trip for young offenders, while Grim is planning to give them a short, sharp shock.

#107 YULETIDE SPIRIT
The local amateur drama group has passed Fowler over for the lead in the annual performance, despite his having donated a half-bottle of Sainsburys whisky to the raffle. A homeless couple expecting a child turns up at the station. Meanwhile, Grim and Kray are on the trail of a vicious gang of brutal carol singers. Habib doesn't celebrate the season, but when Goody brings her a very special present, she foolishly accepts it.

#108 ALTERNATIVE CULTURE
Generation X comes to the station, and in Fowler's opinion the "X" stands for x-tremely stupid. Drugs are becoming a problem, and Grim is on the case. There is a plumbing crisis back at the station, forcing the women to share the men's locker room‹ a prospect which has Goody extremely excited. Meanwhile, Patricia takes up a new age therapy at the local health club, and Fowler doesn't approve.

#109 COME ON YOU BLUES
Everyone except Goody‹ who is training to be a gladiator‹is excited when the town makes it to the second round in the soccer championship. The mayor is using the game to attract foreign investment to the town, which is slowly becoming the sweat shop of Europe. Meanwhile Fowler decides to train the squad in riot control.

#110 FLY ON THE WALL
A BBC documentary camera crew comes to the station intent on recording an absolutely realistic view of policing. The officers, however, think it's their big break‹ Habib has a makeover; Glastone juggles; Goody shows off with a glove puppet called Gladys; and Grim considers a remake of the police classic "Come on Silver Lady." Fowler is horrified. He believes they should all present themselves as they are‹ no better and no worse‹ until he notices that he's going gray.

#111 ROAD RAGE
Patricia decides to spend her time off protesting a new road planned for the town. While out policing the disturbances, Goody falls in love with a protester and changes his name to Pixie. Meanwhile, the paint on Grim's car is scratched, and he devotes the full resources of the CID to finding the maniac before he scratches again. The chaos continues as a rumor emerges that the MI5 has chosen Gasforth for a post-cold war covert operation. Fowler is in control‹ until Habib finds that the protesters have suspended him from a tree.

#112 COURT IN THE ACT
New uniforms and equipment arrive, and the officers are asked to model them. Is this Goody's chance to join Kate Moss and Naomi Cambell on the catwalk? Habib is determined to find out what the "sticky out bit" on the American-style nightstick is for. Meanwhile, Grim is desperate to catch a slippery owl-like villain and is thinking about bending the rules to do it.

#113 GREEN EYED MONSTER
Fowler is in a romantic mood and proposes to Patricia over a candle lit frozen lasagna con funghi. Unfortunately, he lets it slip that a promotion review board is looming and that an inspector living in sin with his sergeant may be passed over, and she rejects him. Devastated, he agrees to a night out with Goody and Boyle. Unfortunately, they go to the same disco Habib has taken Patricia. Meanwhile, Grim's 20th anniversary is approaching, and he faces the appalling prospect of have to buy Tina a box of chocolates.
