Third Watch (NBC 1999-2005, Coby Bell, Amy Carlson)

Drama series telling the stories of the men and women of the emergency services who worked the third watch between the hours of 3pm and 11.00pm in New Yorks 55th Precinct affectionately known as Camelot because it was on the corner of King Street and Arthur Street. The show was at its most relevant following the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Series finale “Goodbye to Camelot” aired on Friday 6 May 2005 which saw several former cast members returning.
