If the preview above was any indication, the subject matter of the eppy, titled Held Responsible, is intended for a mature audience. So if you were hoping for a performance where Tommy Knight plays another innocent Luke-ish character, read the episode synopsis below at your own peril! [/warned]:
The eppy's on ITV1 @ 9pm tonight, so if you're considering tuning in, be sure to tell us what you thought of his performance afterward!
DC Terry Perkins visits a clinic for rape victims, and is horrified when 16 year old Janine Clark says she was raped by her boyfriend Mark Watts and his three friends, Greg Holbrook [played by Tommy Knight], Paul Hayes and Leo Cooper a few days ago. At the station, Janine tells Terry she was invited to Greg’s house, where all four boys were drinking and watching porn. Janine admits to going into a bedroom to have sex with Mark, but afterwards he slapped her and told her to “be nice” to his friends. While Mark, Paul and Leo raped her, Greg held her down and Paul filmed it on Mark’s phone. The four boys are arrested and when Mark is questioned, the arrogant teenager says the group sex was initiated by Janine.For an expanded summary, check out the ITV Press Centre.

Im so looking forward to this episode :')
I love the bill and Tommy Knight, so this is uber amazing :)
Cannot wait ;D
Wow, this is amazing. Considering they won't let the Doctor appear on Torchwood because it would encourage young people to watch an adult drama, I'm amazed Tommy doesn't have it in his contract that he can't take on certain types of roles (of which this would seem to be one).
On the other hand, glad to see him getting interesting roles outside of the SJA! Would hate to see him type-cast as a prototype human. Would rather limit him!
It was good, as The Bill seems to be these days. It was interesting to see Tommy Knight playing a completely different character, and the story kept me guessing all through about what had actually happened and how far Jo was going to go.
I thought this episode was so good :)
Good storyline, and amazing acting :D
Tommy Knight <3
Ahh he is amazing ;)
This was by far one of the best The Bill episodes i have seen for a while :)
Apparently those were REAL tears Tommy cried at the end of the eppy, AMAZING episode. Left a lot of the shocking stuff up to the imagination, but the conviction with which the characters spoke, especially Greg's revelation at the end...just...wow. Tommy Knight's finest acting to date, hands down. I was also genuinely quite shocked and appalled by Mark's character and his motivations at the end. Haven't seen The Bill in years, but that really made me want to tune in again!
For Gareth David Lloyd next week :)
Tommys tears were real :O
Wow, he is an amazing actor enough said.
:)
Next week looks good :)
Looks good, but Ianto's really let himself go!
I bet there are some really paedophilic people in the world who liked that episode.
Peadophilic? All the characters were above the age of consent.
That was an amazing episode of the bill, i stopped watching it because I was too busy but I shall find time now! thanks to this websitre I didn't miss Tommy Knight's episode - i would have! My recording cut off the end though, so once Greg had confessed what happened? Can anyone tell me? Thanks :)
The girl and her mum bonded at the end, Mark was formerly charged, he even semi-threatened to hit a female officer! it was unclear what happened to Greg, but it's assumed he was charged in some way, too. Though one can hope that he'll get a lesser sentence due to his remorse, cooperation and lack of participation. I think you can watch it on ITV Player...?
no you can't due to legal issues and stuff :( I'm lucky I found the repeat in time!
and thanks for telling me what happened at the end :)
Great new banner thingy on the top! :P
Yes, loving the new layout :)
