Sergeant Craig Gilmore was a character in the popular ITV drama The Bill, played by Hywel Simons.
Gilmore was recruited to replace his precdecessor Bob Cryer. Gilmore in many ways was the exact opposite of his predecessor. Whereas Cryer was modest, experienced and respected, Gilmore had been fast-tracked to promotion, had been a Sergeant for less than a year and was considered by his colleagues to be arrogant. He was the first openly gay Sergeant in the show's history. He left Sun Hill after receiving a severe beating and having a relationship with PC Luke Ashton, a closeted homosexual, who was married to PC Kerry Young.
