P.C. Gabriel Kent was a character from The Bill.

P.C. Gabriel Kent was one of the most corrupt and deranged police officers ever to work at Sun Hill.

On the outside, he appeared to be a respectable police officer, but he was just as quick to exploit trust as he was to gain it. Before joining the Metropolitan Police, Kent spent sixteen years in the Royal Navy. He was not highly regarded by other sailors and was thought of as a bully with a short temper.

[edit] Service Record

Kent only joined the Met to get revenge on Sgt. June Ackland for one reason and one reason only; June had given birth to a boy and put the baby up for adoption. Kent's parents adopted June's son and gave him all the praise, making their own son extremely bitter and jealous. To put his wicked plan into action, Kent stole his brother's ID and qualifications and arrived at Sun Hill as Gabriel Kent, as he had form for assault - a conviction that would've prevented him from joining the Force. He arrived to seek revenge on June, but the mode of his insanity grew and grew as he demolished both members of the public and his colleagues when he commited crimes of fraud, perjury, pretend incest, conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, conspiracy to murder, rape and murder.

Throughout his time at Sun Hill, Kent evolved from a bullying bigot into an ultimately evil serial killer.
