Inspector Briggs

Inspector Briggs was a police officer on call when Ned Glover was summoned to the police station, after his son-in-law Biff Fowler was caught with Ned's daughter Linda getting amorous in their car. Ned couldn't understand why he was called in, but realised it was Biff they were after when they described the man they were looking for.
Three weeks later, after Linda died in a car accident, Biff was due to scatter her ashes, he received a letter from Hotten Police Station asking for him to come in to discuss the accident. When Biff arrived at the station, he showed PC Derek Wallis the letter. Briggs came out into the hallway and told Biff that the letter specifically asked for both Biff and Linda to come in, not realising that Linda had in fact been killed in the accident. Biff, who came to the station with a bag, put the bag on the desk and opened it, revealing the box containing Linda's ashes. Briggs was immediately told by Wallis of his mistake and apologised to Biff.
