Happy Birthday to the legendary Alex Newcombe Walkinshaw! Your iconic portrayal of Sergeant Dale Smith on "The Bill" has given us countless thrilling moments, unforgettable wit, and a hairstyle that's worthy of its own award. Whether chasing criminals through Sun Hill or handling tricky situations with Sgt. Smith's trademark calm determination, you've taken police procedural drama from good TV to epic entertainment.In celebrating your special day, we recall some classic 'Smithy' escapades—heart-pounding chases down gritty London lanes and brilliantly humorous banter in the station. Thanks for years of strong screen presence and giving life to one truly lovable sergeant!
