Cast for season 17, episode 18 "Higher Power"

Carver attends to a drug dealer who is found badly beaten on the Larkmead Estate, but finds himself in a dilemma when one of his friends from his alcoholics anonymous group, Ossie, confesses to the crime. Suspicious of his motives, McAllister follows Carver when he tries to convince his friend to turn himself in, but to his horror, Ossie is arrested shortly after by McAllister. Carver realises that Ossie had suffered an alcoholic blackout at the time, and that the real beating was committed by a rival drug dealer on the Larkmead. As he goes all out to clear Ossie's name, the rest of the relief are forced to contend with the BIC gang, a group of youths who are harassing local shopkeepers.

Sara Stockbridge and Ian Burfield guest star
