The Funeral
The big story for series 17, was the sad death of PC Bellamy. Phil Bellamy (Mark Jordon) has been in the series since it began in 1992, and his last appearance was on the 23rd December 2007, when he was tragically shot. These photographs of the funeral were taken on the 31st July 2007, and were screened on British TV on the 30th December in an episode called "Burying the Past". The funeral was held at St. Mary's Church, in Goathland, or St. Mary's Church, Aidensfield as it appears in the programme. This is the same church where he and Gina were married only a few months ago, and the same church yard where their baby is buried.
Although these photos were taken in July, series 17, started in it's usual Sunday night slot, at 8pm on Sunday 11th November 2007.
