Bad Press

Is the reporter breaking the news... Or making it? A killer's targeting Birmingham's paedophiles: a big story, and ace crime reporter Matt Snow's always there first - ahead of the pack and the police. Detective Sergeant Bev Morriss has crossed words with Snow countless times. Though his hang-'em-and-flog-'em views are notorious, Bev still sees him as journo, not psycho. But a case against the newsman builds. Maybe Snow's sword is mightier than his pen? Through it all, Bev has an exclusive of her own...a news item she'd rather didn't get round the nick. DS Byford knows, but the guv's on sick leave. As for sharing it with new partner DC Mac Tyler - no, probably best keep mum...
