This is sad. I liked Conway in The Bill and this was part of my growing up.

He also pops up (literally) in The Professionals episode 'Blood Sports' for all of 1 second as 'CI5 man'.

I remember him saying that when Brownlow left The Bill, his days were definitely numbered, which is a shame as his character had a lot of potential.

Gorffwys mewn heddwch, rest in peace.
