London's Burning (TV series)
John Hallam (Sean Blowers; movie, series 1–9) (also Temporary Station Officer Hallam) – John was the hen-pecked husband of Sandra. His catchphrase, whether spoken genuinely or ironically, was "I'm impressed!" He tried for promotion several times, but was never successful. He drew laughs from the other officers when he accidentally singed his eyebrows after his elderly father-in-law poured too much brandy over the Christmas pudding. He testified against a group of officers at another station for their racial harassment of a black officer, whom they nearly drowned. Hallam was traumatised after being buried alive when a wall collapsed at a shout in series 4, taking many months to recover. Hallam was killed on a Warehouse Fire 'shout' in series 9 when a gantry collapsed and he fell .
