Season 4

In Season 4, Tommy survives the fire set by his ex girlfriend, Sheila, who has been fighting to get him back by drugging him, but hazy memories of that night's events put him at the centre of an arson investigation.

Facing the loss of his job and even jail, he delicately arranges for Sheila to have custody of his ex-wife Janet's baby.

The men of the firefighters' club face trials that include Lou's romance with a nun, Sean's stormy marriage to Maggie Gavin, and a disappointing return to duty that ends in suicide.

And when Mike is transferred to a crew with a reputation for drinking on the job, Tommy tries to keep him out of harm's way by secretly joining them on calls dressed in his dead cousin Jimmy's bunker jacket.
