Episode Chronology:
A Bunch of Fives is the 1177th episode of The Bill.
D.S. Beech is found unconscious and brutally beaten in an alley adjacent to a Chinese restaurant. Whilst his colleagues wish to extract retribution with an unofficial "zero tolerance" policy, Ch. Supt. Brownlow attempts to use more amenable methods, leading to a race between C.I.D. and uniform to find his attackers. But was Beech on police business at the time?
