like a few people i know and i come in late on stinger while not until 2000. three year later there be no way i would miss an episode . the show really be that good and have and for a good word and maintain it integrity and unlike blue heelers and for example . the crime be the thing while personal life be there but only wheel out when affect an investigation . when gary sweet be bring in and some fan seem worried and but he really fit in well and which do not surprise me . gary could measure up to any british or u actor in a similar series . the cast change occasionally but each change bring something new and fresh . with arguably australia fine crew behind the scene and stinger will continue to remain a cutting edge drama series .
