Cast for season 20, episode 46 "Second Strike (Part One) (226)"

Ackland is rushed to hospital after being run down by the Area Car. Carver is devastated to learn what has happened to his oldest friend, and soon offends Stamp by cruelly mentioning his previous incident of running somebody down with the Area Car. Best gets an offer from DCI Bill Wicklow of the OCG to go undercover to ensnare a dealer his brother Joe is working for. He ends up being assaulted by his brother and his gang when he goes to see him, but after letting one of his friends escape a shoplifting charge, Joe's boss Lenny Boswell offers to bring him into his football hooliganism gang. After getting arrested for starting a fight in a pub, Best is praised by his handler, DI Henry, while Boswell is impressed. Asking him to go visit one of his loan shark clients, Best's handling of the job gets him involved in a bigger job; robbing a Greek drug runner for his merchandise. When Joe becomes resentful of his brother "invading his world", he hatches a plan to double cross Boswell's crew, with Best fearing the worst when he finds the OCG team at the triple murder of Boswell's crew.
