Clip description

Detectives Frank Holloway (Colin Friels) and Rachel 'Goldie’ Goldstein (Catherine McClements) interrogate the 'negligee bandit’ at the station. When some of the other officers try to get a glimpse of the suspect, Goldie is not amused.

Curator’s notes

The 'negligee bandit’ investigation is one of the pilot’s lighter, shorter story strands. As well as drawing this plot towards its conclusion, this scene gives a light-hearted look at the 'blokey’ culture of the police station and the way Goldie deals with this.
