BRIEF: Hyper joined the Watch in Series 12, as a replacement for Jack Morgan. His previous stations included a temporary position at Euston and a position at Enfield.

Hyper was born in Limerick, Ireland and had a passion for motorbikes. He was nicknamed 'Hyper', because he was described as being as sharp as a hypodermic needle!

FAMILY: -

ROMANCE: Hyper invited Luke Jones to stay, after his sister had been killed in a fire the Watch attended. Hyper also admitted to fancying Adam!

TOUGH TIMES: The truth came out about Hyper's sexuality in Series 12, after Geoff had become suspicious. Hyper decided to tell the truth, before it was revealed by anyone else. Joe and Geoff didn't take the revelation very well and it took them both a while to get used to it.

After Sally Fields was raped by Sean Bateman in Series 13, Hyper blamed himself because he never returned home that night.
