London's Burning - Bulstrode, Tate and Scase 

Sadly in 2022 people like Scase are still going in all walks of life, but fortunately people still have the lion's attitude like Sidney Tate

This really is incredibly good character acting by the guy who played Bulstrode. He had a relatively minor part but the fact he's so watchable is testament to his quality. Love the chemistry in this scene.

I hate Scase he is inept and should have been transferred long before. On the other hand Station Officer Tate was the best Guv London's Burning had Yeah ok Zorba was ok but Tate was the best out of them all he was THE GUV...

I remember the story line. Bulstrode's successor put Scase in charge of the fire HQ car park. I wonder how the likes of Scase got into the fire service when he obviously had such a dislike for people.

Bulstrode definitely liked Tate you can just tell by the way he spoke to him

Does anyone else think Bulstrode had already made up his mind that Scase was wrong; and just gave Tate his telling-off for the look of the thing?

Sidney gets a very affectionate telling off from Bulstrode. Mere lip service really because Bulstrode knew he'd taken the right action. A total contrast to what Bulstrode said about him in the pub in front of everyone when Sidney was medically retired. "Sheer bloody professionalism"

Their is plenty of people like Scase working at Tesco's

Bulstrode, Gareth Thomas. He was in police procedurals Parkin's Patch and Sutherland's Law. Bulstrode's temper is 100% Iain Cuthbertson, who played the Procurator Fiscal.

During my 31years in the service. The watch have been spoken like that many times but the area commander was a good bloke

“AND NOW THIS.” The most raised voice moment with Tate still with Bulstrode

Bulstrode:

@

Fire and rescue service not a bloody computer dating agency lol

Sad thing is there's plenty of scases in the service either ones who are the book as in the book of bollocks or the ones who wrote the book dangerous incompetent individuals

"Give it time, iron itself out, AND NOW THIS"

I remember watching this I almost jumped out of my skin when Bulstrode slammed his hand down on the desk

Men drowning vs rank insubordination? ......... let's put it to the vote shall we!

If any one is wondering the out come that rotten egg scase was transferred sideways.

He might have hated to admit it but deep down, Bulstrode knew Tate made the right decision.
