[edit] Storylines
John is a hardworking officer, good at his job and passionate about it. He works alongside DS Luke French. His rival in the series was Neculai Stenga but in a showdown Stenga was shot and killed by John after kidnapping his family. However in the process John and Luke also get shot but recovered. John's old senior officer Detective Chief Inspector Harry Hutchinson was revealed to be a traitor feeding Stenga information about witnesses due to be giving evidence at a court trial against him, when John found out his respected mentor was corrupt he alerted the Directorate of Professional Standards (DPS) and arrested Harry resulting in his expulsion from the service, disgrace, and a prison sentence. John is not corrupt but is willing to bend rules in whatever way necessary to bring those to he deems guilty to justice, something that Luke French disagrees with him over as Luke likes to do his work "by the book". John was acting DCI after Harry's departure
Kate Keenan is John's wife, both visibly funny and loyal. She got the job as a Station Reception Officer (SRO) with some input from John. She also works in Holby South Police Station, in which the same place as her husband John works as a Detective Inspector. In the first episode of Holby Blue when John found out his wife Kate Keenan, was seeing another man after their initial divorce, he became distracted from work, at one point even organising unofficially that he would be pulled over by the uniformed branch and fined. He still loves Kate and tried to win her back but ended up sleeping with Rachel to make Kate jealous. Much to Rachel's disdain he tells her he didn't love her and wanted Kate. As he began to reconcile with Kate, Rachel told John she fancied him and tried to stop John and Kate getting together by revealing she slept with John, Kate felt betrayed but John insisted he loved her. He then protested insisting Kate was not to be sacked when she slapped Rachel who called her children "Brats". He was also extremely worried when Kate was held hostage by Stenga, but managed to save her. He is now officially back with Kate. She broke up with him before and is still uneasy with him as she feels John cares only about his job. However that is something that John is beginning to regret and is trying to spend time with Kate and his child. John's new boss, DCI Scott Vaughan has however taken a shine to Kate and is now John's love rival.
