04:22so yeah
04:22mission accomplished
04:23early hours of the morning
04:35anything that tends to be moving at this time
04:37is questionable
04:38because 90% of the population are asleep at
04:41silly hours of the morning
04:43and are you literally able to start heading out towards crow for an emergency
04:55a neighbour
04:58has stated that a vehicle has just pulled up outside
05:01mass males have jumped out and gone into an address
05:05no weapon seen but the vehicle is still outside the premises
05:09so we've just got a call from a member of the public
05:10they've seen a vehicle pull outside an address in an area that we're getting out of the
05:15burglaries
05:22so we've just got a call from a member of the public
05:24they've seen a vehicle pull outside an address in an area that we're getting a lot of burglaries
05:30so we've just got a call from a member of the public
05:33so we've just got a call from a member of the public
05:35they've seen a vehicle pull outside an address in an area that we're getting a lot of burglaries
05:37the fireyard unit is en route
05:44there's a chance that they can be armed to gain access to people's properties
05:50There's a chance that they can be armed to gain access to people's properties.
06:01They tend to break the locks so they'll have weapons on them.
06:09I'll just sponsor on the street now.
06:19With that vehicle now.
06:26Crash, crash, vehicle made off without runners.
06:38How many of us would pass our driving test today?
06:42Great drivers make use of all their mirrors.
06:46And always have an excellent grip of the steering.
06:52Of course, they never pull out without looking.
06:56Or ignore road markings.
06:59If this sounds like you, you're guaranteed not to fail.
07:07The vehicle's just pulled up outside.
07:11Mass males have jumped out and gone into an address.
07:153-9, I'm about five minutes out.
07:17Emily is blue lighting to a car theft in progress on the outskirts of Scunthorpe.
07:23I'll just sponsor on the street now.
07:27With that vehicle now.
07:33Crash, crash, vehicle made off without runners.
07:37Stay there.
07:41Get off.
07:45We've got one.
07:49Two males outstanding.
07:51You're losing the right handcuffs.
07:53They'll be all right.
07:54See, those handcuffs aren't getting loosened.
07:55You're all in charge, are you pal?
07:57Some poor driving, eh?
07:59I want driving.
08:01Never said you were, mate.
08:03There it is.
08:21Tang November 3-9, and just with the suspect vehicle, it's done some quite substantial damage
08:27to the lamppost.
08:28It's ripped it from the ground.
08:30There's some registration plates which don't match up to the registers on the vehicle.
08:34Balaclavas, some tools.
08:37We have got one male to stay in for the minute, and we need to do an area search for the outstanding
08:41two of the suspects.
08:42So, we've got quite a number of units in the area.
09:03The dog unit is currently going into the field.
09:06The drone pilot has managed to get the drone out.
09:28Hello!
09:30Probably going to say they're not going to come this far, are they?
09:33Unless they were really lagging it.
09:36Oh, wait, wait, wait.
09:37It's got a marker on it.
09:38Don't let it go past, don't let it go.
09:39That vehicle's suspected to be involved with burglaries in the area.
09:54I'm going to try and get it stopped.
09:57Don't know, I'm guessing you've seen the marker on that vehicle.
10:03Do you have a driving licence?
10:04Yeah.
10:05I'll be honest, I need to know who you are and I need some photo verification.
10:08Are you checking my insurance on that or something?
10:09Yes.
10:10It's, what, three o'clock in the morning?
10:11It's a bit strange for it to be out and about.
10:12There is a female who's driving but there's a male in the rear passing by and there's a
10:14male in the rear passing by and there's a male in the rear passing by.
10:15Which, again, is very strange.
10:16I have suspicions that I don't know.
10:17I don't know.
10:18Do you have a driving licence?
10:19Do you have a driving licence?
10:20Yeah.
10:21I'll be honest, I need to know who you are and I need some photo verification.
10:23Are you checking my insurance on that or something?
10:24Yes.
10:26It's, what, three o'clock in the morning?
10:35It's a bit strange for it to be out and about.
10:38There is a female who's driving but there's a male in the rear passenger seat which, again,
10:42is very strange.
10:43I have suspicions that it may be that she's come to pick him up and that he is one of
10:50the males that we're looking for in connection to the burglaries.
10:53Will this be long?
10:56I got somewhere to be.
10:57Not really.
10:58Just, like, get home to bed like now.
11:00I want a bath and bed.
11:05This vehicle has links to suspects in recent burglaries.
11:09So, these two are going to be under arrest for conspiracy to burglaries.
11:14The sign by my watch is, are you both listening?
11:16Yeah.
11:170401, OK?
11:18You're both locked up for conspiracy to burglaries.
11:20What do you mean?
11:21The circumstance of that, you're in the area in which we have attempted burglaries and
11:26you've been linked to numerous other thefts in the area.
11:28What?
11:29So, because of that, we're going to take you to custody and you'll be interviewed,
11:32OK, in relation to it.
11:33Hey!
11:34Hey!
11:35Hey!
11:36Every time I get locked up, just go through my phone and play,
11:38I threw my phone and he threw you.
11:39There's no need for that.
11:40Yeah, you can get your hands behind that.
11:41There's no need for that.
11:42We're trying to hold that.
11:43Whoa, whoa, whoa.
11:44There's no need for that, right?
11:45Yeah, well, there's no need to grab me like that, mate.
11:47I'm meant to go America on Thursday, isn't it?
11:50You're hurting me.
11:51I'm trying to move me region.
11:52You're going to stay like that now until you calm down.
11:54I'm meant to go America on Thursday.
11:59I'm meant to go America on Thursday.
12:01I found the baseball back down the side of the passenger seat.
12:16There's no ball with it there.
12:18You're further arrested from possession of an offensive weapon.
12:25We're going to take these two to custody and they're going to be interviewed in the morning
12:31in relation to the offences.
12:52Three that we've managed to get in custody in relation to the job.
12:56And we've managed to get a vehicle back that is a stolen motor vehicle.
13:01All in all, a very good job.
13:03In the end, we got there.
13:04But our bed is calling us.
13:06This is our last night shift.
13:07And we've already had quite a busy shift as it is.
13:10So rest days are in sight.
13:13I'm so excited to go home to bed.
13:22Feeling good so far.
13:29Four mile running before night.
13:30Don't cleef up seafront.
13:31You'd have thought I was in California when I was running down the side of that beach.
13:36Oh, it's golden sands.
13:38I tell you.
13:39Costa del cleef ups.
13:40Place to be.
13:41I don't have the physique to be a runner, but I give it me best.
13:45Back at Melton Nick, Martin has warmed up for his night shift.
13:53It's a bit bleak at the minute, although at least it's dried.
13:57Show if it stays dry.
13:59I've been into sort of a bit of running for a while now.
14:03Albeit I've had a bit of a relaxed summer, so I probably need to do a bit more running.
14:06Get rid of some of the cake and beer.
14:08So we're going to kick off with a few laps of the old north full-scale electric track.
14:20It just forms a nice little circuit that we follow.
14:23It tends to have a bit of everything.
14:25We've got a great big trunk of water and a massive bridge that sort of divides the force area.
14:32So you always have that north-east-south banter.
14:36I'm traditionally a South Bank officer.
14:40South Bank thoroughbred, I'd like to refer to myself as.
14:43The north generally referred to people from Cleefurps and Grims of his cod heads.
14:47It gets a bad rep, Cleefurps, but it is quite nice.
14:49But today, with the weather being not too bad, it was actually quite nice.
14:53The vehicle's just been coming towards us and made a bit of a last-minute late left-hand turn.
15:12It's then picked up a bit of speed.
15:19It's not going off at warp factor 9, but it's in excess of the speed limit.
15:25And its turns are quite late, as if it's not quite sure where it's going or where it's trying to head toward.
15:31Just monitoring it for a minute or so to see what it does.
15:46He's now literally done a massive circle.
15:49Something's not right.
15:50You don't just drive round in circles at 3 o'clock in the morning.
15:55We're a marked police vehicle, so we stand out.
15:57It could well be that it's seen us and it is trying to work out, are we trying to follow him?
16:01Or it could well just be that he's aimlessly driving around, not really knowing where he's going.
16:06I think we'll have a stop and a chat.
16:24Not really going to stop there, surely.
16:30Just roll forward a bit, mate, so you're not on top of the junction.
16:40No.
16:42Parked there, in that parking area.
16:45No then, sir.
17:00You alright?
17:01Is this your vehicle?
17:02Excellent.
17:03Can you just come and take a seat with me, please, sir?
17:04Alright.
17:05Just...
17:06Have I done something?
17:07I'll go through it with you in the car, alright.
17:10Grab a seat in there for me, okay?
17:15I'm sorry, can I ask what I've actually...
17:19Yep.
17:20The reason why I've stopped you is your manner of driving is causing me a little bit of concern.
17:23Because when you've accelerated down there, you've been in excess of...
17:26It's because there was, like, a big puddle, so I...
17:28I saw the swerve, but when you were driving, you were in excess of the speed limit.
17:33Whereabouts is it you're heading to?
17:35We're just, like, going for a drive, we're not really...
17:37I was about to head home in, like, five minutes, yeah.
17:40You seem really edgy.
17:41Yeah, because I've been stopped.
17:45Right.
17:46Okay.
17:47Hi.
17:48So, do you have a full driving licence?
17:49Yeah.
17:50Excellent.
17:51And how long have you held your licence for?
17:52Um, less than a year.
17:54Probably, like, eight months.
17:55Right, okay.
17:57Do you use any recreational drugs at all?
18:00Um, occasionally cannabis.
18:02Do you?
18:03Okay.
18:04So, when was the last time you used cannabis?
18:05Um, I'd say...
18:06Last...
18:07Last night.
18:08Probably about eight, nine pm.
18:12Just because you're a man of driving, I'm going to be required to provide me a sample of saliva in relation to drug driving.
18:18Have you ever done one of these before?
18:20No.
18:21Okay.
18:22You can write forward and stick your tongue out for me.
18:26How often do you use your cannabis?
18:32Mmm, maybe once or twice a week.
18:35Once or twice a week.
18:36How much we're talking?
18:39Mmm, like, one between a few friends.
18:43All right.
18:44You've tested positive for cannabis.
18:45All right.
18:46I am now arresting you on suspicion of driving whilst I have the specified limit for a specified drug.
18:55Is there anything in that car that I need to be aware of?
18:58Um, I've got just like, um, ten pounds worth of cannabis.
19:03Whereabouts is it?
19:04Um, at the driver's door.
19:06Okay.
19:07Oh, my God.
19:19There is cannabis in the car.
19:21It's only a little bit of cannabis.
19:22Consistent with personal use.
19:27Oh!
19:28Right.
19:29It is proper cold outside tonight, innit?
19:31Obviously, there's a bit of cannabis in there.
19:33So, you are now aroused under FRI and suspicion of possession of a controlled substance, that
19:38being class B drug, which is cannabis.
19:40Yeah.
19:41All right.
19:49Like, I'm not, I wasn't doing anything bad to me.
19:52I'm a university student studying law.
19:55Law?
19:56Yeah, yeah.
19:57Are you hoping to go on and practice law?
19:58Yeah, maybe.
19:59So, the last thing you want to be doing, then, is racking up convictions for possession
20:04of drugs offences, isn't it?
20:06That's just in between.
20:08You've got to ask Trust in Chelsea.
20:09What?
20:25You know?
20:26I'm a scientist.
20:29It's a celebrity appli Linkedin, right?
20:32Better tosee it.
20:33And we're just looking at the market.
20:35interesting character it was proper what's happening to me he definitely had
20:41that look of my world's about to end when we've gone and spoken to him he's
20:47only maybe saving graces at least he's been honest enough to confess there's a
20:52bit of cannabis in the car as well so he's a law student before I was a
20:58police officer I was a lawyer I worked in personal injury and medical
21:03evidence I strongly think he needs to reconsider his recreational
21:08activities if he wants to pursue a career in law
21:22dad's your brew tea with some milk please
21:27we decided tonight so it's always best to make them brilliant that I'll keep
21:31supervision sweet PC Luke Thundercliffe is no mug when it
21:36comes to keeping sergeant Lucy Honeybun happy
21:40yourself good good to tell you that I'll give my feedback

22:05see what we can get with 14 years on the force between them Luke and Lucy have all the makings of a
22:16classic TV cop duo when you first start we'll start getting crewed together and
22:20I'd say I'm working with PC Honeybun today and I'm like Honeybun no it's like in the mix
22:25so then when you try and write your statement and it's like I am PC 1093 Luke Thundercliffe but on this day and time I was in company with PC Honeybun it's like
22:35sounds like a jerk statement
22:50this one looks interesting over here
22:52I'm out of thefts of bikes at this time definitely worth stopping that

27:28decided to come to my rescue
27:29yeah
27:29but you had a head start on me
27:31so I thought I'm never going to catch you
27:32athlete
27:34so we might not have got both suspects off the moped
27:39only one of them
27:40but they do very often come again
27:42so I'm sure we will get him next time
27:45we've got someone's bike back there
27:46exactly
27:47we've got someone's bike back
27:52funder cliff on honeybred strike again

28:38the black Mercedes
28:57it just seems to be a little bit at speed
28:59it's
29:03we're going fast
29:0570
29:05not gaining on it
29:07but it's
29:10really put it's foot down
29:12unfortunately we've not managed to catch him up to get speed on it
29:20so it'll just be a case of just having a chat and see what he's rushing about
29:25hello you alright
29:45the reason we've stopped you is just because of your speed
29:47you were driving a little fast
29:50I didn't realise I was running fast
29:53yeah it was just when we spun on you
29:55well I can't say exactly how fast but it was definitely in excess of 30
29:59yeah
30:00right I'll just do your licence checks on here
30:06just bear with me one second
30:07can you just turn the wheels on full lock for us please
30:10I'm just going to check your camera
30:11there's no reports of it on PNC and there is insurance help
30:30just jump out of Zach to show you this
30:36unfortunately your front tire is going to get you three points
30:43so you've got a nasty cut
30:45just down here look
30:47which is showing down
30:49so that is extremely dangerous that means that can go at any point
30:54what's going to happen is you're going to get a ticket for having cars exposed on your front tire
30:58I've not seen that though
31:00it doesn't matter it's your vehicle it's up to you to maintain it and look after it
31:03well you've hit something recently
31:06it's my wife
31:07well she's hit something and not told you then
31:09you can give it to her honestly
31:11besides can you just watch my back while I just take a picture of the tire
31:16yeah I don't know what she's hit there if you're blaming her but she's hit something good
31:25that's going to be a lesson now though isn't it
31:30wake up go out the door and check your clothes
31:32oh my god
31:35am I going to get a picture of it?
31:37shot at it yeah
31:37no no no
31:38off your phone
31:39if you want yeah
31:40let me just show it to you
31:42so it's not just a slight cut
31:45bad in it
31:47you've got a real nice car and you've got cheap tires on
31:50it's not my car it's you know it's my wife really
31:53she's taking all the blame
31:56well fortunately it'll be yourself getting the ticket
31:58if you can't continue to drive on a tire like that
32:00so you have to get it recovered
32:01or get someone to change the tire
32:03is there any chance I can park it inside here?
32:05oh yeah you'll have to move it off to WLS anywhere
32:07I'll let you move it from here but yeah
32:08I can park it down there in a minute
32:09that's it from us
32:14obviously do us a favour
32:15you drop us off at least
32:17we've got no space in the car
32:20that was a proper cut that
32:31in terms of dangerousness
32:42it was quite a deep cut
32:45and obviously the higher speed that you're driving at
32:47the more risk there is
32:47he's driving a really nice expensive car
32:51he's in his E-class
32:52and he's put the cheapest tires he can probably buy on
32:55so it does basically get good tires
32:58blaming his missus for it
33:00absolutely out of order
33:02it's always my turn to do the brew round at the minute
33:14I've got my own coffee cup
33:20Liam's coffee mug
33:22and then it's got my name in the phonetic alphabet on the other side
33:26new member of the team

34:27it is a nickname not a description
34:30I went through a phrase at one point
34:36where they nicknamed me Barry from EastEnders
34:37because apparently I look like Barry from EastEnders
34:39every time I sat at a computer
34:44I'd move away come back

34:47stuck to the wall behind it

37:51wouldn't you
37:51I think the Sierra 3-1
37:56we've just passed St Andrew's Key
37:57and it's been a negative so far
37:59fancy a cheap skiing holiday
38:24try Britain's roads
38:26where the standard of driving
38:29is all downhill
38:30it's an avalanche of errors
38:33where bad drivers freestyle
38:37or take wrong turns
38:41on the black run
38:42and there's always someone
38:47who goes completely
38:48off piste
38:49Jesus
38:51what
38:52Martin and Liam
39:03are racing to find a biker
39:04who's riding on the wrong side
39:06of the road
39:06taking the Sierra 3-1
39:10we've just passed St Andrew's Key
39:11and it's been a negative so far
39:13so those that dare stop
39:22alright so how can I get to it
39:26There's a motorbike.
39:39This is it.
39:40I bet this is it.
39:44Just get off it.
39:48Pull over.
39:49Pull over.
39:51Pull over.
39:53Pull over.
39:56Pull over.
40:04Hello there, sir.
40:05Have you been up and down here yet?
40:08My...
40:09Yeah, no work in my room.
40:12Where are you trying to get to?
40:14Actually, just decided to take out delivery.
40:22So you're delivering this evening?
40:24You're delivering now?
40:25Yeah.
40:26OK.
40:26So if you've been going this way on this side, yeah?
40:30We've been getting calls from members of the public, because they've been seeing you riding
40:34on the wrong side of the road.
40:39It's not a roundabout mistake, because you've been all the way down at St Andrew's Cay, and
40:43you've come all the way back this way.
40:45So sorry, I am too much tired.
40:53Tired?
40:53You're lucky you're alive, sir.
40:55Yeah, this side.
40:56Right?
40:57Well, what you've been doing, you are lucky you are alive.
40:59Yeah, that's a thing.
41:00You've driven the wrong way, down a major carriageway, and members of the public are calling us saying
41:07they're having to swerve out the way, because you're travelling towards them.
41:10You're lucky you haven't seriously injured yourself or somebody else.
41:15I understand that you've had some issues with the directions, but you've had the opportunity
41:19to pull over at any time.
41:21Do you have your driving licence with you today, sir?
41:28Yes.
41:30Thanks very much.
41:33Yeah, it's just...
41:35Yeah, that's it.
41:37The vehicle comes back to running in charge, too.
41:40So he's got business use, that's always a good sign.
41:43Check his licence for his CBT as well.
41:46Yeah, he did his CBT last week, so he's literally brand new.
41:49I'd imagine this is probably his first day delivery.
41:54Duke Air?
41:55Yeah.
41:57Duke Air over dangerous.
41:58If he's saying he's tired, he's had the opportunity to stop, and then he's continued, I think...
42:03Duke Air, I think.
42:07So we've got a duty to consider, not only our obligations to you, but to everybody else.
42:13Potentially, we've got to prosecute you for dangerous driving, OK?
42:16We're going to deal with it as you've been driving without due care and attention, because
42:21I think you've got yourself confused.
42:25We're going to escort you home, so follow us, OK, and we'll make sure you get home safe.
42:29I mean, 10 out of 10 for bravery, what, a week after your CBT, you take on a job in a city as a delivery driver.
42:52He might be delivering food, but we're delivering him.
43:00Someone's going to be disappointed with their order, aren't they?
43:05It's going to look really bad if I tell him to follow me, and then I get lost.
43:12Can't do it for me, he's only.
43:13Can't do it for me.
43:16OK?
43:16Yeah?
43:17Yeah, you're home safe now, yeah?
43:19Have some food.
43:20Yeah, just some water.
43:21And some water.
43:22Yes, bye-bye.
43:23Take care.
43:24No problem.
43:25Bye-bye.
43:32I think that counts as good to be done for the day, doesn't it?
43:34Could have been a lot worse.
43:36He's right on the cusp of really committing a dangerous driving offence.
43:54So we've dealt with him as a duke here, on the basis that he's made a mistake.
43:59He hasn't gone out there deliberately driving around like a maniac.
44:02He's lucky that he's not got hurt.
44:06I think there's quite a lot of learning to be had for him there.
44:15If you have any dashcam clips you think could feature in the next series of Motorway Cops,
44:20catching Britain's speeders, send them along with your contact details to
44:24contact us at purpleproductions.co.uk.
