In series 1–4, Crabbe is aided by WPC (later Detective Sergeant) Sophia Cambridge, played by Bella Enahoro. In the final series, she is replaced by PC Ed Guthrie (Derren Litten) and WPC Jane Morton (Mary Woodvine, daughter of actor John Woodvine). In the restaurant, Crabbe is helped by chefs Steve Turner (Joe Duttine; 21 episodes) and then, Gary Palmer (Nick Lamont; 20 episodes) – both reformed ex-criminals – and John the waiter (Ashley Russell) and Linda the waitress (Alison McKenna). The latter was subsequently replaced by Nicola the waitress (Samantha Janus). After Nicola's departure, she is in turn replaced by Sally (Marsha Thomason). Also, reappearing throughout is Leon Henderson (Nick Raggett), who supplies the restaurant with fruit and vegetables, as well as working there, some evenings doing the washing up.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“Just as the creative artist is not allowed to choose, neither is he permitted to turn his back on anything: a single refusal, and he is cast out of the state of grace and becomes sinful all the way through.”
—Rainer Maria Rilke (18751926)
“The old man had heard that there was a wreck and knew most of the particulars, but he said that he had not been up there since it happened. It was the wrecked weed that concerned him most ... and those bodies were to him but other weeds which the tide cast up, but which were of no use to him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Tis weak and vicious people who cast the blame on Fate. The right use of Fate is to bring up our conduct to the loftiness of nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
