Series 10, episode ‘Smile for the Camera’ - first broadcast 25 years ago today! Jackie has a stalker & he’s waiting! I really like this episode. Great storyline, lots of drama & fabulous scenes with Jackie’s stunning #SunbeamAlpine.

Series 10, episode ‘Smile for the Camera’ - first broadcast 25 years ago today!
Here is my script from the episode, compete with 2 deleted scenes & Martin being called Dennis! YTV sent it to me way back then & David Lonsdale signed it for me at the 1st rally I attended. #Heartbeat❤️

1. Top Vehicles - Gina’s VW Beetle – my dream car. I’ve loved this car since I first saw it. It replaced the Isetta at the right time, when Gina was more grownup & established as the pub licensee. One day I hope it’ll join my A40, that would make me very happy! #HeartbeatCountdown 🤍
June 25, 2025 at 6:55 AM
2. Top Vehicles - Kate’s Triumph Herald – almost my number 1 as it was my love of this car that really got me hooked on Heartbeat. Perfect for Dr Kate as a car that, at the time, would have been a classy alternative to a Ford or Austin. Lots of great scenes!#HeartbeatCountdown 🩷

3. Top Vehicles - Tricia’s Austin A40 Farina – I feel honoured to have this one parked in my garage. I love this car! I think it really suited the newly qualified Dr Summerbee and with its lovely blue paintwork, it always looked smart in scenes. Beautiful!#HeartbeatCountdown 🩵

4. Top Vehicles - Jackie’s Sunbeam Alpine – it replaced the Imp at the right time & really suited Jackie, who was doing well in her career at the time. A beautiful car with a lovely engine sound. One I’d really love to own & Fiona Dolman loved it too. #HeartbeatCountdown 💚
June 22, 2025 at 8:45 AM
5. Top Vehicles - Gina’s Isetta – totally iconic! Such a famous Heartbeat car & so suited to a younger Gina. Two were used & although I prefer the second, I have driven the first (which was fun even though the exhaust fell off!) Always looked fab on screen. #HeartbeatCountdown ❤️
June 21, 2025 at 7:07 AM
6. Top Vehicles - Ashfordly Ford Anglia MVN478C – the original Ashfordly Anglia.  Loved it and its introduction episode.  How can anyone not love an Anglia? I’m pretty gutted that it’s no longer presented as a police car, but am glad it’s survived! #HeartbeatCountdown 🖤
June 20, 2025 at 6:57 AM
7. Top Vehicles - Helen’s Citroen DS Safari – very quirky and although not completely in-keeping with the era, I think it looked good onscreen and suited Helen. I love that Sophie Ward was a big fan of driving it too. Lots of screen time. #HeartbeatCountdown 💛
June 19, 2025 at 7:20 AM
8. Top Vehicles - Ashfordly Panda Ford Anglia LTT930F – the original panda with its lovely red interior.  It marked a move forward in the show’s police vehicles. A survivor today and thoroughly lovely. #HeartbeatCountdown 🩵
June 18, 2025 at 7:08 AM
9. Top Vehicles - Maggie’s Land Rover – I loved Maggie’s entrance in it and it really suited her. It always looked the part on screen and was a bit more rough and ready than Carol’s. Lots of screen time too. #HeartbeatCountdown
June 17, 2025 at 7:00 AM
10. Top Vehicles - Blaketon’s Ford Anglia 100e – another I’d like to find and own!
It suited Blaketon & I am told that Derek Fowlds wasn’t great at driving it! Lots of screen time and some good scenes, particularly in ‘Peace & Quiet’. #HeartbeatCountdown 🖤
June 16, 2025 at 7:07 AM
11. Top Vehicles - MG double - Nick & Neil’s MGs. I love them both equally. I loved how Nick’s was part of a storyline & how it had so many scenes. Neil’s is equally as nice, but not in as many scenes, which also disappointed David Michaels who played him #HeartbeatCountdown ❤️🤍
June 15, 2025 at 6:21 PM
12. Top Vehicles - Jo Weston’s Frogeye Sprite – full of character & perfect for Jo. I always thought that it was probably a gift from her rich parents. One I am yet to trace, but would love to. A mention here to Joe Mason’s red Frogeye, another cracker!#HeartbeatCountdown 🤍
June 15, 2025 at 11:19 AM
13. Top Vehicles - Carol’s Land Rover – a beautiful Land Rover. It always looked good on screen and really suited Carol. I have driven it and loved it, and I know Lisa Kay loved it too!  Really, really lovely and a #HeartbeatVehicleRally regular. #HeartbeatCountdown 💙
June 14, 2025 at 6:17 PM
14. Top Vehicles - Sergeant Miller’s Rover – a suitable replacement for the Anglia that Miller used, and crashed, before the Rover came along. This suited him much better and is a genuine ex-Police car, which I have been lucky enough to drive. #HeartbeatCountdown 🖤
June 14, 2025 at 7:06 AM
15. Top Vehicles - Claude’s truck – completely iconic and one of the most recognisable Heartbeat vehicles. Not higher up on the list because I prefer cars, but I do really like this one as it is so symbolic of Heartbeat and instantly recognisable. #HeartbeatCountdown ❤️
June 13, 2025 at 7:13 AM
Thinking of our #Heartbeat legend and thoroughly lovely man #PeterBenson today, on what would have been his birthday. #BernieScripps #Heartbeat 💙
June 13, 2025 at 6:07 AM
16. Top Vehicles - Jackie’s Hillman Imp – super cute and a good choice for Jackie as her first car. It had a few nice scenes, but could have had more. Replaced at the right time & then re-invented as Mike’s gold coloured CID car. #HeartbeatCountdown  🩵
June 12, 2025 at 6:59 AM
17. Top Vehicles - Peggy’s Austin Goodwood – perfect for Peggy. It’s like the car version of her really, and I feel privileged that I have driven it. An amazing old vehicle, which sounds glorious and is almost 90 years old! #HeartbeatCountdown 💙
