He possesses an extraordinary analytical mind, capable of impeccable deductive reasoning which perfectly complements DI Lauren Bell, played by Annabel Scholey (<em>The Sixth Commandment, Rivals, The Split<\/em>), a meticulous, no-nonsense detective who is as driven as <em>Winter<\/em> when working on a case.
