Paul Churchill was the villainous director of nursing who covered for Carrie Burton (Lisa Crittenden) whilst she was on leave. He recognized Carmen Roberts (Theresa Healey) as a prostitute and reported her. He started to harass both Jo (Greer Robson) and Jaki (Nancy Brunning), eventually molesting Jo. Carmen reported Paul and had him fired. Nonetheless Paul returned the following year and harassed Jo into dropping her allegation. He ended up getting a job at the hospital but Carmen realized he was the man behind several severe beatings on women and had him arrested. In 1995, Paul escaped prison and attempted to kill both Carmen and Guy (Craig Parker) by setting their houseboat out to sea. He failed and was arrested.

Famous quotes containing the word churchill:
“There used to be housekeepers with more energy than sense—the everlasting scrubber; the over-neat woman. Since the better education of woman has come to stay, this type of woman has disappeared almost, if not entirely.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
