is very rarely mentioned or explored after being a major plotline in the first season. St Davids Police Station also hosts a district Forensic Services department, but other more specialised units, such as the Homicide Squad, Special Operations Group and Accident Investigation Squad respond from Melbourne. St Davids is also the home of a local radio station, known as 3SD, and a Prime7 television station, as well as a number of amenities not offered in Mount Thomas including a multiplex cinema.
