Which character did this one play in Z cars?

[ABerrant]

The last time I recall seeing James Ellis was when playing a zookeeper in "One by One" in the mid-80s.

I used to love Dixon of Dock Green on a Saturday evening

[missprim]

Did Mrs Dixon know about this factor?

[granny grump]

Didn't he play the father in the series about the ladies football team 'playing the field'

[carlton23]

Correct GG,
Inspired by the Pete Davies' novel I Lost My Heart To The Belles — which was written about a real-life club, the Doncaster Belles — Playing the Field ran for five series, from 1998–2002, with scripts by, amongst others, Kay Mellor, Sally Wainwright and Gaynor Faye

And Shaw Taylor on a Sunday lunchtime telling us to "Keep them peeled"
