As Jed Mercurio’s police drama returns to screens, Gerard Gilbert looks as worst-behaving officers on television

The 2006 time-travelling cop show, in which John Simm’s enlightened modern policeman woke from a car accident in the thuggish policing era of 1973, spawned an accidental anti-hero in Philip Glenister’s swaggering bully-boy DCI Gene Hunt. He was a character so popular that he spawned a spin-off set in the early 1980s, Ashes to Ashes, in which Keeley Hawes was on the receiving end of his jocular chauvinism. Harvey Keitel played Hunt in the US version of Life on Mars.

John Thaw in the sweeney.

Glad to see Vic Mackey in there. personally I reckon he should be number 1

You forgotten the true criminals in the police force. MSM don't report

Gilou is my fave of the bad cops listed But the all time great bad cop has to be Harvey Keitel in the Bad Lieutenant.

Just wanted to make sure the right one was at no.1....he is!! Bring back his era of policing...when the bad guys get a swift kick in the family jewels as well as being arrested 🤣
