Bad Medicine

Bad Medicine is the 104th episode of Taggart.

It was originally broadcast on STV on 3 October 2010 and was shown in the rest of the UK on 11 January 2011.

PLOT
A tortured and mutilated body is discovered in a vacant warehouse. The victim identified as Scott Clarkson, a newly-qualified junior doctor. Initial enquiries prove fruitless. Scott, it appears was a promising medic and a good son.

However, when fellow medic Lucy evades their questions, the team realise all may not be what it seems. The arrival of two London cops confirm their suspicions - Scott is connected to a drug trafficking case. He and Lucy have been manufacturing drugs to fund their studies.

Lucy's death in custody compounds the pressure from the London cops, and our team soon discover the students had unwittingly become players in a very dangerous game.
