Product Description
Set during the 1960s in the fictional North Yorkshire village of Aidensfield and initially starring former EastEnder Nick Berry as PC Nick Rowan, this enduringly popular series interweaves crime and medical storylines, with a host of colourful characters that viewers took to their hearts and a wonderfully nostalgic soundtrack. Running for two successful decades and becoming staple Sunday-night viewing, Heartbeat won several prestigious TV awards including Best Performing Peak-Time Drama in 1999 (beating Coronation Street), and a number of ITV Programme of the Year awards. The series attracted a peak audience of 14 million, spawned a highly successful spin-off, The Royal, and a Top Ten hit single, and has garnered a devoted following, remaining prime-time viewing world-wide. In this complete fifth series the love story between Nick and Kate ends in tragedy, and a dark cloud of shock and grief gathers over Nick as he is forced to move into a new and traumatising chapter in his life.

Series 5 was to prove to be a landmark series for this drama. The most important thing to happen was the departure of Niamh Cusack as the adorable Kate Rowan. In episode 3 she loses her battle with leukaemia, shortly after giving birth to her daughter Katie. Anyone who isn't brought to tears by this story must be made of stone! This series also saw the introduction of District Nurse Maggie Bolton, played by Kazia Pelka, who in some ways was a replacement for the doctor character, and a charming one at that! In the final episode we have our first glimpse of the future Mrs Rowan, schoolteacher Jo Weston played by Juliette Gruber. She was never good enough to replace Kate, but was very likeable all the same. At this point this series was still very much up there with the best of dramas. The full episode listing for this series is:
1. Wishing Well
2. Expectations
3. Thief In The Night
4. Domestic
5. Vacant Possession
6. We're All Allies Really
7. Sophies Choice
8. Gone Tomorrow
9. Toss Up
10. It's All In The Game
11. Vigilante
12. Unfinished Business
13. Saint Columba's Treasure
14. Sitting Off The Dock Of The Bay
15. Blood Sports
