Bloodsport

Bloodsport is the 108th episode of Taggart. It was originally broadcast on STV on 31 October 2010 and was shown in the rest of the UK on 8 February 2011.

PLOT
An unidentified body is discovered by a motorway underpass. It seems the man's body has been dressed and transported from the crime scene before being dumped under cover of darkness.

When Julie Cash appears at the station to report her husband missing, it becomes apparent that her husband, Noel, is the body lying in the mortuary.

Forensic examination reveals that Noel had been involved in a bare knuckle fight prior to his death. When Red uncovers internet footage of Noel participating in a cage fight the previous night, the team begin to piece altogether his final hours. But Noel walked away from the fight alive, so who killed him?

As the case unfolds, Julie is faced with the knowledge that her husband was living a lie and Ross has to face up to some home truths of his own.
