The couple of episodes involving the story around Hallam's death was some of the finest drama I've ever seen on British TV. Simply brilliant.

"John Hallam was a _big_ man, in every sense of the word. Not only was he a devoted husband to Sandra, to whom our thoughts go out; but he was also an outstanding firefighter. In all my years in this job, I have never met anyone who better represented the values that make the Fire Service unique. John didn't just give a lot. He gave _everything._ Why? _Because the Brigade was in his blood._ When he was offered a golden opportunity on civvy street, he stayed loyal to the Brigade. Even when he was seriously injured in a previous incident, he didn't desert us. When he was needed, John Hallam was always there. His death was a tragic loss, but his life, and the manner of his going, will always be an inspiration. His courage was... _absolute_ ...right to the very end. John gave everything. He even gave his life. I'm proud to have known him." Nick Georgiadis at John Hallam's funeral.

It went vey soap like in 97/98 and then killed off a load of long term characters Nick, Sicknote and, even though the series had been axed, they cruelly and inexplicably killed off Recall. I was still sad to see it go, I think they bought out a new fire drama but it was axed after one series or something

@@LicencetoWho I know, and Michael Garner wasn't the one leaving either. The developmental arc of his character was also important, and John's death was part of that too and his wanting to make it up with his widow, Sandra and his loneliness and both losing John as a friend and colleague and then Sandra going [ although briefly returning only for her character to be completely written out ] was part of that too. Meeting Fiona too later and getting married and gaining a step-daughter and having child of their own was also apart of the characters pivotal change, and none of that would happened had they both died.

After Sicknotes death he is only mentioned three times, he never got an onscreen funeral, his wife and adopted son are never seen or spoken of again. After Vaseline and Hallam died they both got funerals and they were still spoken of many episodes after their deaths, even the wives of both appeared on numerous occasions afterward. This is easily the worst death in the series and its a shame as Sicknote was the last cast member who appeared in the film at this point and was easily one of the best characters in the series, he deserved a better send off.
