[cupid04]

Anyone remember name of police drama where one of the main characters had to practice singing 'total eclipse of the heart' for some concert.
I think it was the 90's but not sure! Thanks for any help.

i think its 55 degrees north

55 Degrees North is a cop drama set in Newcastle and featuring Don Gilet as a young black officer transferred from London, much to the resentment of the locals.

The series received rotten reviews, then good ones, and the viewing figures blossomed. So a second series was commissioned, and a third is possible, if the figures are good again.

The BBC has taken a gamble on this, putting 55 Degrees North on at 8pm, up against Heartbeat on ITV1.

The earlier time slot forced changes to the script. "You can't have swearing and things like that," says Andrew, or too much violence. A scene showing a robbery in a building society had to be re-written. After the watershed, a knife could be held against a throat; before 9pm, such violence has to be suggested.

Andrew's character, who craves promotion but it still stuck in uniform, is given more comedy turns.

"In my big story there is a thing called Cop Idol which I enter. It's a singing competition and I sing Bonnie Tyler's, Total Eclipse Of The Heart," says Andrew.

Can he sing?
