	Just double-checked against an episode guide to ELR. The episode ''Robert's Rodeo'' was screened on February 7th 2000.

(And the idea of a city cop finding he has to deal with unaccustomed rural animals... we are also told later in the series that Robert has getting on for nineteen years service and can legitimately retire and take pension after completing twenty, so here too is the motif of a long-service cop coming up for retirement. This is tantalising...) [[User:AgProv\|AgProv]] ([[User talk:AgProv\|talk]]) 20:28, 4 December 2014 (UTC)		Just double-checked against an episode guide to ELR.
