In Dead Like You, the first story in a new series, that included the incoming ACC, Cassian Pewe (previously played by James D’Arcy, now reincarnated as Sam Hoare). A lordly chief constable, he found himself under suspicion for a spree of abductions, sexual assaults and a murder, all performed in a rubber suit and some sort of gimp mask.

In series five of the BBC One cop drama, Laura’s character bore the brunt of one of the most cutting lines ever delivered in the superb series.
