00:00This is Police Interceptors.
00:04Police Interceptors are all I for.
00:06I'm going to tell my kids about this.
00:08And you're riding with the pride of Northamptonshire.
00:11Speed one, two, zero.
00:14Ace Pursuit drivers.
00:16Contact, contact, contact.
00:18With air support.
00:19Got two out, stand by.
00:21I'm out.
00:22And a crack dog unit.
00:24If you leave, you will get hit.
00:26They bring down the bad guys.
00:30I believe you'll want it, mate.
00:32Keep the streets safe.
00:35Get on the floor.
00:39And battle 24-7.
00:41Get down on the floor.
00:43In the war on crime.
00:45Crash, crash.
00:47On the floor now.
00:48This is what it is, isn't it?
00:49We find them, we lock them up.
00:54Coming up.
00:55Oh, it's this.
00:56It's this.
00:57Mayhem on the motorway.
00:59Get out of the vehicle!
01:00Get out of the vehicle!
01:03And while one rider gets a good start in the 11.30 at Northampton.
01:07Slop!
01:08Police with taser!
01:10Another.
01:12Yeah, it's just come past.
01:14Falls at the final fence.
01:15Up against the fence.
01:16Up against the fence.
01:17Up against the fence.
01:18Yeah, I'm finally back now.
01:20This is his speech.
01:21Moon sorry to the shell.
01:23Is a thing worth living.
01:292 hours later.
01:31Mid-afternoon on the motorway.
01:32Drivers have no idea what's motoring up behind them.
01:35behind them.
01:40Cops are racing in numbers to try and reach a suspected stolen car.
01:51But motorway traffic isn't making it easy.
01:56For every car the cops pass, another slows them up.
02:05And they need to get a shift on, because the car thereafter was allegedly stolen by a gang
02:10wielding machetes.
02:18Luckily, the National Police Air Service has swooped in to keep tabs on the target.
02:23A dark blue Beamer X3.
02:26Eyes on.
02:33Go.
02:35Meanwhile, the road team has eyes on as well.
02:38RV9 now has the eyeball.
02:41It's lead to speed 7-0, lane 3, correction.
02:48The target can be no doubt now that they're being followed.
02:51And, unsurprisingly, the driver has ignored blue lights.
02:56Speed 8-0.
02:59RVs will catch up and try and box it.
03:01They plan to box in the Beamer with multiple armed response vehicles.
03:06And they'll need plenty of handcuffs when they do.
03:09Three up.
03:11At least three up, mate.
03:13At least three up.
03:14It's totally more lane 3, speed 4-6.
03:17We'll stay behind it.
03:19We'll stay behind it.
03:21Speed now increasing.
03:23The road's rammed, but the runaway's recklessly weaving through traffic,
03:29while passengers lob stuff out of the window.
03:34We're getting items discarded from the vehicle.
03:38Nearside indication towards M6.
03:43The target's really taken off now.
03:46Let's go between lanes one and two.
03:52Back to one.
03:54And it's heading for the border.
03:56We go on to Warwickshire.
03:58Where's this?
03:59Speed 1-0.
04:06Committed, committed.
04:08M6.
04:09Lane 2.
04:10Speed.
04:119-6.
04:12Speed and risk.
04:13Now takes the hard shoulder.
04:15Speed.
04:16Alright, it's coming out.
04:18Alright, it was discarded.
04:20Raining more goodies from its windows,
04:22the stolen Beamers eating up the miles between here and the next county's patch.
04:27We go on to Warwickshire in West Mid.
04:28We go on to Warwickshire in West Mid, please.
04:30The X3's nearing its limit of 130 miles per hour.
04:34But the lead cop car is a Volvo XC90,
04:38with a further 20 miles per hour in its locker.
04:43I'll go for a get-by.
04:44Yeah.
04:45Shut up.
04:46Shut up.
04:47Yeah, we're gonna go for a get-by.
04:48No, he's not gonna let me.
04:50In a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, the runaway blocks the overtake.
04:55The others are still, when you're meeting behind.
04:56The cops have the numbers to box in the Beamer.
04:57But someone has to get ahead of it to do that.
04:58Yeah, half mile marked board for junction one and the M6.
05:00Which is easier said than done.
05:01A marked car is neck and neck with their target at 130 miles an hour.
05:06One, two, three up.
05:07And at the wheel, firearms cops get their first look at the suspected Machete gang.
05:08Vehicle's three up.
05:09One, two, three up.
05:10And at the wheel, firearms cops get their first look at the suspected Machete gang.
05:13Vehicle's three up.
05:14Keeping pace requires highly skilled driving.
05:16And at the wheel, firearms cops get their first look at the suspected Machete gang.
05:34Vehicle's three up.
05:37Keeping pace requires highly skilled driving.
05:48Oh, it's this next level.
05:49Skills the bad guy doesn't have.
05:53At 110 miles per hour, he cuts wildly across a lorry and so nearly steps out the back end into oblivion.
06:03Good driving, good driving.
06:05Yeah.
06:06It's off, off, off.
06:08Junction one.
06:09Right about.
06:11The lead car's keeping the Beamer on a tight leash.
06:17Yeah, skip.
06:18You take cons.
06:20As it goes round the houses and rejoins the motorway.
06:25Back on, action.
06:26Back on.
06:27Junction two.
06:28M6.
06:29The marked car behind the target is pulling at all the stops to get ahead of it.
06:39And after a serious sprint along the hard shoulder.
06:42Get by complete.
06:43Success.
06:44But there's a long way to go before they can box it in.
06:58Well, I can't do anything on my own.
07:02They need three cars at the back to tighten up.
07:05But the runaway's travelling too fast.
07:08Can we get closing up please and get something on this?
07:12Vehicle is lane three, speed 119, medium risk.
07:17Rear markers get a collective foot down.
07:19And, at last, they have the requisite three behind and one in front.
07:25Right, okay.
07:26Stick complete now.
07:28Stick's complete.
07:30Try and get it on before the next junction.
07:32The fearless foursome now need to perform a high-speed, high-stakes piece of tactical pursuit and containment.
07:43We'll stay behind and get them to come up to the near side.
07:45Yeah, can the next car come up to the near side?
07:46We'll stay behind and push it into the box.
07:50With a marked car in front of the target, the next step is to pull a car alongside.
07:56Boss, do you want to come through?
07:57Yeah, it's going offside.
07:59Yeah.
08:00The steamer blocks the move.
08:01But, with traffic at a standstill ahead...
08:05Oh, yes.
08:06Come on.
08:07Static, static.
08:08Yeah.
08:09It may not matter.
08:10It's going to be a hell more static.
08:11This will be a chance.
08:13They just need to pin the BMW in place.
08:18Close up, close up.
08:22But it's too late.
08:25It's taking a hard shoulder.
08:27With a cop behind, another hugging its right side and solid traffic on its left.
08:33This should be the end of the line.
08:36The beamer engages the Houdini drive and performs the great escape.
08:40It's now racing down the hard shoulder with just one car in pursuit.
08:50Speed 35 increasing.
08:53And the great wall of traffic between the target and the rest of the stick.
08:56It's getting free.
08:57Yeah.
08:58With nowhere to break through to the hard shoulder.
08:59Things look desperate.
09:00Get off the line.
09:01The interceptors are in danger of letting a suspected machete gang off the hook.
09:02Get off the line.
09:03Get off the line.
09:04Get off the line.
09:05The interceptors are in danger of letting a suspected machete gang off the hook.
09:19Get off the hook.
09:37Speed 1-0.
09:39Interceptors are after a BMW allegedly nicked by men with machetes.
09:43At least three up mate.
09:45It's hit 130 and has been driven to its limits.
09:53Oh, it's this.
09:55The cops attempted T-Pack.
09:57It's going off tight.
10:01Has gone south.
10:03And as traffic's brought the target to a halt.
10:06Close up, close up.
10:07Close up.
10:10It's somehow broken away.
10:12Making a hard shoulder.
10:14Leaving one in pursuit and the rest in no man's lane.
10:21Get off the line.
10:23A second cop car has made it to the hard shoulder.
10:26But they're playing catch up and running out of time.
10:29Running out of fuel mate.
10:31They've no choice but to hit the gas.
10:34While ahead of them.
10:37Still a hard shoulder.
10:39Speed 8-0.
10:41The lead car sticks with the runaway.
10:43Easy enough.
10:45Just take pressure off them.
10:47It's a fine balance between speed and safety.
10:50Empath, have you still got a high ball?
10:52Yes, yes. Affirmative.
10:54Still got the subject vehicle.
10:56While air support can see but the runaway can't.
10:59There's a broken down lorry on the hard shoulder ahead.
11:03Oh, Jesus.
11:05No one survives an 80 mile per hour head on with an HGV.
11:10And the driver slams on the anchors coming to a stop with inches to spare.
11:15Oh, static vehicle.
11:17It should be game over.
11:19But the runaway's playing for extra time.
11:22Static vehicle.
11:24That's it.
11:26Tactical contact and this time he's done.
11:29Get out of the vehicle!
11:33Get out of the vehicle!
11:34Get out of the vehicle!
11:36With reports of machetes, the team is taking no chances.
11:40Go!
11:42Get out of the vehicle!
11:45Get out of the vehicle!
11:46Three in cuffs, and when the cacophony of noise subsides,
11:57cops can start asking questions.
11:59Where are you from?
12:00I'm in Sheffield, man.
12:01Sheffield?
12:02Yeah, bro.
12:02What are you doing down here?
12:04The driver has the most to answer for.
12:06Oh, my God.
12:08Over here.
12:10I was just so aggressive. I had my hands up.
12:12But you were failing to stop driving at insane speeds?
12:16You could have killed someone.
12:17All three of them come from Sheffield.
12:19How old are you?
12:21Sixteen.
12:22Sixteen.
12:23Are you?
12:24And incredibly, all three of them...
12:27How old are you?
12:30Sixteen.
12:30You're 16 as well?
12:32...have only just broken up from school.
12:34He's 16 as well, apparently.
12:36It sounds like they've gone down to London and robbed aggravated burglary.
12:42The Sweet Sixteens allegedly stole the keys from a homeowner they menaced with machetes.
12:48The report says that somebody has come to the door as a delivery driver,
12:52and then they've...
12:53A bit of a distraction burglary with machetes and...
12:55Right.
12:57And they might have got away with it if it wasn't for a lorry driver on the hard shoulder.
13:01How good's your English?
13:03No English.
13:04No English? Okay, that's fine.
13:05Are you broken down here?
13:06No.
13:07Kaput?
13:09No.
13:11Tachograph finish.
13:13But this gent hadn't broken down at all.
13:15Tachograph.
13:17Incredibly, he pulled out of traffic to take his compulsory scheduled break on the hard shoulder.
13:23Do you know why he stopped here for a 45-minute break?
13:25He did us a favour, but he stopped on the hard shoulder.
13:27He did us a favour, it's good, but you can't stop here.
13:31The teenage driver pleaded guilty to aggravated burglary, theft of a motor vehicle, dangerous driving, and driving without a licence or insurance.
13:40One of the passengers also admitted the burglary and stealing the car,
13:44and the second passenger pleaded guilty to burglary as well as possession of a knife.
13:49Quite the what-I-did-during-the-holiday story, if they ever make it back to school.
13:54It's a late one, and three cars are in central Wellingborough, looking for a suspected stolen motorbike.
14:12We're back on Wellingborough now, looking for that motorbike.
14:15Just wondering where 99 is, and 6-1-R, whereabouts are they flied up?
14:2099, we're just at the power centre, we've come out on a next plane.
14:25Roger.
14:26Bagging bad guys is a team effort, but every copper wants to score that winning goal and make the collar.
14:33I think we're going to float back along Gold Street.
14:36And as Lockie and Sandra comb the area...
14:38...their sergeant gets first sniff of the goal.
14:46I don't know, but does it have the top box on the back of it?
14:49Yeah, I think so.
14:51...while Sandra gets her foot down to intercept.
14:53A couple of miles away...
14:56That's going to be the one, that's going to be the one.
14:58...the sergeant's car is close enough to give the bike a little nudge.
15:02Contact, come for this!
15:04...the rider's on his toes.
15:06Stop! Are these the taser?
15:10Stay there, get on the ground! Get on the ground!
15:13You're in the rest, that's the motorbike.
15:14Can I ask us anything behind the fence, mention one question, so it's later on call.
15:18Then you do so, may I get an evidence.
15:21One detain.
15:24There's no injured parties.
15:28No, I don't believe so.
15:30Sandra and Lockie arrive late to the party.
15:33Yeah, control, the bike has got some damage all over it, to be honest with you.
15:37Just in time to take the suspect from their match-winning sergeant.
15:45What's your name, buddy?
15:47It must be the season for baby-faced bad lads, because this is another 16-year-old.
15:52What's your name?
15:52You're not going to talk to us.
15:59When he finally does find his voice, it's not what the cops want to hear.
16:04Have you got a licence?
16:06No.
16:07No.
16:11With a suspected stolen bike off the road and unlicensed teen in cuffs, it's a nice result for the team.
16:18But the collar belongs to the serge.
16:20And while he gets the glory, Lockie and Sandra get the paperwork.
16:24Luckily, Lockie gets a second chance to bag a biker on his Friday late shift.
16:39He's on the main drag.
16:42But as he closes in on an uninsured two-wheeler...
16:46Yeah, roger that.
16:48Reports come in of a man spaced out at the wheel of a car.
16:51We've just had reports of a male sat in a red VW Golf outside a pub nearby.
16:59The interceptor has no choice but to break off his bike hunt and head for the pub.
17:05Looks spaced out, so it's possible drug drive.
17:13Lockie likes a day at the coast eating fish and chips.
17:15But he'll have to settle for a night at the pub looking for dodgy drivers.
17:19Has he been seen to drive, or has he just been seen sat in there and looked spaced out?
17:25The report says someone out of it was sitting at the wheel of a red Golf.
17:29But when Lockie arrives, there's no one in the car.
17:33There's a red Golf.
17:35Though a guy near it...
17:37Peaks the interceptor's interest.
17:47Hello there, fella. Is this red Golf yours?
17:50Something?
17:50Is this red Golf yours?
17:52No.
17:53No?
17:53No, definitely not, mate. No.
17:56Sure?
17:56I'm waiting for a taxi.
17:58Are you?
18:00He says the Golf has nothing to do with him and he's booked a cab.
18:03Definitely not yours?
18:04No, I'm waiting for a taxi, pal.
18:06Are you?
18:07Oh, yeah.
18:08F***ing drinking and driving, mate.
18:10Er, who mentioned drink?
18:12Who mentioned anything about drink? I was just asking if that was your car, didn't I?
18:16Have you phoned for a taxi?
18:18Oh, yes, mate. About ten minutes ago.
18:20Ah, okay.
18:22Oh, yeah.
18:24There's no way I'm drinking and driving.
18:26Yeah, it'd be very silly, wouldn't it?
18:28Extremely silly indeed.
18:30But people do silly things, don't they, from time to time?
18:33Yes, they do.
18:35Yes, they do. Silly things like driving uninsured motorbikes.
18:39Yeah, it's just come past in Rushton village.
18:47Rocky's original target has caught him on the hop.
18:51But with no one in the Golf, he's now free to go after it.
18:596'4", outside with no one with that red Golf, and they're inside the pub,
19:03and the motorbike's come past me, and prioritising the motorbike.
19:06The question is, is he too late?
19:09Where's it gone? Where's it gone? Where's it gone?
19:11Smart man, he's left.
19:13Lockie's gone all in on left.
19:19Yeah, there he is.
19:21And we have a winner. The bike's in the distance.
19:24I'm on the Oakley Road, heading towards Oakley Hay Roundabout, in an unmarked car.
19:29I've not tried to light it up, but keeping distance,
19:31just so I can provide comms for TPAC mobiles to make.
19:35The idea is to guide in more TPAC-trained drivers, who can carefully box the bike in.
19:416'4", yes, male rider, or believed to be male rider, wearing a helmet.
19:46In the meantime, the rider might not know about the unmarked car on his tail.
19:50Yes, yes, it's a left, left, left OTA roundabout, A6003 Uppingham Road.
19:57Appears to have a protective jacket on as well, a helmet, manner of driving is good.
20:04When it comes to two-wheelers, it's a case of softly, softly, catchy, uninsured monkey.
20:09With the driver wearing foot protection, I wouldn't be looking to do any dramatic tactics on it.
20:15I'd be looking to get some plane vehicles near it.
20:17Romeo Papa 6'4", we're still a 6003, speed 79.
20:22Not sure if driver is aware that I'm a unmarked police vehicle, but it's possible.
20:27There are signs that he is aware.
20:30Speed increases.
20:32In fact, it looks pretty nailed on.
20:35Speed 81.
20:37Time to light him up.
20:39Is it failing to start?
20:42Yes, yes, a vehicle is failing to start for me.
20:49If the vehicle is failing to start, the initial phase pursuing is on Christ.
20:56Approaching Willowbrook Road, and it's a right, right, right onto Willowbrook Road, followed by a right, right, right.
21:04Lockheed has had his fair share of motorbike pursuits, and knows how riders press home their advantage.
21:11We're onto Oxford Road. I suspect he's going to try and head through footpaths back up onto Oakley Road, er, Cottingham Road.
21:17He's going to try and head through footpaths back up onto Cottingham Road with Dorset Road.
21:30We've gone left, left, left, left. He will be going through Bollards up onto, er, Cottingham Road with Dorset Road.
21:39I cannot continue from here. He's gone through Bollards.
21:46And even though the interceptor called it, that's no consolation.
21:50It's, er, loss, loss, loss.
21:53Lockheed's not the only unit in the area.
21:59If Omega 4 can keep eyes open, town centre please, he's heading in their direction.
22:04And he might be about to lose another two-wheeler to the Sarge.
22:16Who's spotted the bike heading the wrong way down a one-way street.
22:27Before he can spin round, the runaway spins and heads straight for him.
22:31The Sarge is now in hot pursuit.
22:39Vehicle continues on Oakley Road, speed, 5-0 miles an hour.
22:49He's now at the track side.
22:51Yes, yes, slow it down, left turn.
22:54And it's his turn to be led a merry dance.
22:56No deviations, still 3-0 miles an hour.
22:59The runaway drives sensibly one minute and takes daft risks the next.
23:07Speeding the wrong way down another one-way and flying over speed bumps.
23:15It's too risky.
23:16We're going to abort.
23:19The Sarge has had to abort.
23:22But nearby, Lockheed hasn't given up hope.
23:27All right, where are you going now?
23:30This is possibly coming this way.
23:32Sure enough.
23:336-4.
23:35I've regained eyeball on that vehicle.
23:37The worst things come to those who wait.
23:40We are on South Road in the old village.
23:44He's unaware of my presence at this time.
23:47And undetected in his plain car, Lockheed watches the bike pull up, then strikes.
23:53All that tricky ballad and speed bump work, then you pull up in front of an unmarked cop.
24:19Schoolboy error.
24:20The mail was in the process of parking the bike up and walking away.
24:26The cavalry rolls in, but this is very much Lockheed's arrest.
24:30Can I just ask you to hold on to this gentleman?
24:339-9.
24:33Have you got a licence?
24:37Provisional only.
24:39So, you're also under arrest for driving otherwise and according to the licence.
24:43And for no insurance as well.
24:45Deadpool can do drink and drug tests without revealing his secret identity.
24:49I don't do this.
24:50I'm not an idiot.
24:51I just bought the bike.
24:52Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going.
25:00That's good. Thank you, sir.
25:01And he passes both.
25:04That's zero.
25:05But he'll have to unmask.
25:06OK.
25:08To face the music in court.
25:12At the very least, there'll be disqualification, bans, fines.
25:16Depending on what his past is like, you might well end up spending some time inside.
25:20But with the way the prisons are at the moment, who knows?
25:24The lad Lockheed locked up, limped into custody and admitted he fell off yesterday.
25:29Sympathy was in short supply and he was convicted of driving without a licence,
25:34no insurance and dangerous driving.
25:37The fail to stop charge was dropped.
25:39But he was still disqualified for two years, had to pay £187,
25:44do 120 hours unpaid work and got an eight-month suspended prison sentence.
25:49Meanwhile, the Sarge's 16-year-old collar from the stolen scooter pleaded guilty to
25:54driving without a licence or insurance and got six points and a fine.
25:59No further action was taken for handling stolen goods.
26:04A share of the goals and 2-0 to Team Interceptor.
26:07Coming up!
26:16Get on the floor now!
26:19An empty promise from a practised runner.
26:21You don't have to rescue me, but I say I'm going to run up.
26:23You're not going to run, you just ram.
26:25A landmark memory test.
26:27A London Magistrate's Court.
26:28A London Magistrate's Court.
26:32And an interior to die for.
26:34I'd like to be able to admire your choice of pink and black bucket seats,
26:39whilst it's on four wheels, not in a crash upside down.
26:42It's a wet Tuesday morning.
26:59A six ball catcher inside of I'll head that way as well.
27:09And Harrison's cutting through cats and dogs with his blues and twos set to hustle.
27:14We've got a vehicle which is on a low number of plates.
27:19It's going to be a transit-type vehicle.
27:20It's heading back towards us into Weddingburgh.
27:24We've got a crew that's probably going to be there ahead of it,
27:27so we're going to head down and see if we can get it and see if we can get it stopped.
27:30Harrison says his funniest moment as a cart was falling flat on his face chasing a suspect.
27:38Base planting's an occupational hazard.
27:43But he's far more sure-footed than a Beamer 340, even in the rain.
27:49The worst road to grade one. I'll do the best of times that long in this weather.
27:54Despite the conditions, Harrison needs to keep his speed up.
27:57He's going to intercept fake plate white van man.
28:00We're here in the land.
28:03Come on to our area.
28:06Speedy, speedy.
28:07The van's been spotted by number plate recognition cameras.
28:126-4 to 1-4.
28:13In Wellingborough.
28:16Just coming to Wellingborough, mate.
28:19And Harrison's just made it there in double-quick time to back up Lloyd,
28:23the unit closest to the target.
28:26Yes, yes, behind you.
28:27There's a VW between the cop cars and the white van.
28:33The vehicle is ahead of the white car.
28:37So we wear the police car.
28:38The driver's only in the frame for fake plates, and they're not expecting any fireworks.
28:46It's not linked to criminality as such. I think it's just been no insurance job.
28:49We'll have doctored the plate slightly to avoid paying, basically.
28:52Or just go for the compliance stop.
28:54The van hangs aright, taking the traffic between cops and target out of the equation.
29:04And as it pulls into an estate, we may get fireworks after all.
29:08Because the driver's taken off.
29:18Barreton and Lloyd are neck and neck.
29:22But Lloyd's down.
29:25Thankfully, the firework went off more like a damp squib than a rocket.
29:29And Tanya's caught up with the driver in an alley.
29:32Get on the floor now!
29:33I think it's time to do it now!
29:34I'm right, I'm right, I'm right.
29:37I'm right.
29:37It's all right. Go on, you don't need a rest in there.
29:39I'm not running. Go on, I'm not running.
29:41All right, boss.
29:42All right, Nick.
29:44Yeah, I'm good, thank you.
29:45Can I just tell my wife then?
29:46Nope, keep going.
29:47I didn't fail to stop, did I? I just got out.
30:00He just got off a run, didn't you?
30:01Oh no, sorry, boss. You don't have to arrest me.
30:03He does.
30:04You don't have to arrest me, do you?
30:05Yeah, we've got him.
30:06Well, at the minute, we're going to have to deal with you, aren't you?
30:07Yeah, deal with me, yeah.
30:09But you've got potentially no insurance. You've got a driver licence.
30:11Yeah, I've got a driver licence as well, yeah. I've just bought the van.
30:14Okay.
30:15That's what I'm in.
30:16Take a seat and we'll have a chat with you. Have you got anything sharp on you?
30:18No, nothing.
30:19Nothing?
30:20I've got a bank.
30:21Okay, that's it.
30:24Can I get the house keys off that?
30:25Yeah, in a minute.
30:27You're going to have to arrest me, boss. I ain't going to run.
30:28I'm my kids laughing off.
30:29Perish the thought.
30:30Sorry, my love.
30:30You're not going to run. You've just ran.
30:32I know, because I got scared, because I've just bought them here.
30:33I got scared, right. I got scared.
30:35Scared of what?
30:35You, Zay?
30:38Sorry, I was just saying, you know what I mean?
30:40Not really, no.
30:41Take a seat. What's your head?
30:43No, not till we figured out who you are.
30:45And I think we've figured he isn't Usain Bolt.
30:50Yeah, he's obviously done one from the vehicle.
30:52Thankfully, he's not the fleetest on his feet.
30:54So, and Tanya was straight on him.
30:56So, we've managed to get him detained and arrested.
31:00Those who clone number plates are often highly sophisticated.
31:04This guy...
31:07isn't.
31:07As you can see on his registration plate, he's just got black sticky tape on it.
31:13So, he's doctored the plate, obviously, from a 1-1 to a 1-6.
31:17Well, a dodgy 1-6.
31:20It's done the world's worst tape job.
31:22It's not even close to looking anything like a 6.
31:27We're not dealing with Wellingborough's Moriarty here.
31:29Yeah, I don't think his expertise was in running, bless him, or driving by the looks of it either.
31:36He's clearly clipped the kerb or something coming in, hasn't he?
31:38As you can see, very competent driver.
31:40I think we'll just try and deal with it roadside and we'll have the vehicle recovered for no insurance.
31:45No action was taken against him for number plate offences or driving without insurance.
31:51However, the uninsured motor was taken off the road and the driver has been disqualified
31:55for other unrelated matters for over four years.
31:59In the meantime, no further action was taken against our cameraman for assaulting an officer.
32:05You got wiped out by your cameraman.
32:06Yeah, sorry.
32:10Sorry, mate.
32:11Right, come on, come on, come on.
32:13And on the plus side, Harrison has got a new member of the cops who face plant club.
32:19Oh, God.
32:24We think you've just failed to stop, right?
32:25I haven't failed to stop, though.
32:27I just nearly f***ed killed myself.
32:28Think you have?
32:29Lies and law-breaking...
32:31You bought them for a Chinese boat.
32:32Yeah.
32:33What's his name?
32:33...go hand in hand.
32:35Right now.
32:36But those who weave the tangled web of deceit...
32:41But what you're telling me doesn't add up.
32:43...generally come unstuck in the end.
32:45I'm sorry.
32:46That's all right.
32:47It's good to be honest.
32:48When people are in trouble or they've done something wrong, I think it is human nature to default to lying.
33:03I could only possibly imagine the amount of time that's been wasted in policing with people telling porcupines only just to be found out in the end anyway.
33:12It's approaching midnight and an Audi driver's made a late bid to lead the M1.
33:33Cutting between lorries, he makes for the slip road.
33:36Considered it.
33:38Then has a rethink and returns to the middle lane.
33:41He just made a very odd manoeuvre.
33:43It looked like he was...
33:44I literally thought he was going to go in front of a lorry and go up the slip road.
33:50It's the sort of poor driving that attracts a cop's attention.
33:53Something you want to avoid if you're not 100% legal.
33:58No insurance in that Audi.
33:59Which this guy probably isn't.
34:01And no tax since May as well.
34:07Callum's pet peeve is unobservant drivers.
34:10And it's fair to say the one in the Audi hasn't observed the cop car in his rear view mirror.
34:16We're up to 90 now.
34:18Because he's put his foot down and smashed through the speed limit.
34:22Let's go and find a move.
34:23Stuart's right boot takes them past the Audi.
34:28Callum lights the follow me sign in their rear window.
34:33We've got compliance.
34:34And they lead the driver into the services.
34:48Morning, are you okay?
34:49Yeah.
34:50Do you know why we've stopped you?
34:51No, not really.
34:52Your car's showing us having no insurance and no tax.
34:55You also look completely out of it.
34:57Not at all ready for your close-up.
35:00Why is that coming in?
35:01Police interceptors.
35:02Are you getting serious?
35:03Yeah.
35:04You just turn your engine off for me, mate.
35:08Your driving license on you.
35:09Do you have a driving license?
35:11He says he's got a license but doesn't have it with him.
35:13Er, what's your name, bud?
35:15And once he gives his name, Callum doubts he has one at all.
35:19Okay, you're under arrest for driving whilst disqualified.
35:22You have to say anything, but it may only be defensive if you do not mention one question.
35:24Something to let rely on in court.
35:25Anything you do say may be given evidence.
35:30Are you being dead serious?
35:31I'm being dead serious.
35:32Disqualified.
35:32But the details you've given me, you're showing us disqualified.
35:35Yeah, so you might want to put my driver's number in to see if that's...
35:37We'll have a look, but at the minute you're under arrest until I can prove otherwise.
35:41Okay, jump up the car for me.
35:43The driver maintains he does have a license.
35:46So when does it say I've been disqualified for?
35:50Er, just tell me when you're disqualified until, which is January.
35:54London Magistrates Court.
35:55London Magistrates Court?
35:57Yeah, from July 23.
36:00This year?
36:01Yeah.
36:01I haven't been arrested since I've come out of prison in 2019.
36:05The plot thickens.
36:08What's happened?
36:09My little brother's in jail now for, er, twack.
36:13Apparently, his little brother, now in prison, was the one disqualified, and it's all a mix-up.
36:19Even any time he's gone to station, he's gone in with my name, and then they'll find out afterwards.
36:23He's already in prison, so I haven't been in London since last year, May maybe.
36:28It's an argument unlikely to hold water.
36:31I mean, the thing is, if he's been arrested, they'd be doing the checks, wouldn't they, for DNA?
36:36So it's going to be you.
36:37Yeah, me, because I haven't been in London.
36:38They're not going to disqualify someone who's not that person, because it's all done through DNA.
36:43All right, but you said I've been disqualified from July this year.
36:46Yeah, from the court.
36:47Impossible.
36:51He maintains his brother was disqualified, not him.
36:54But a DNA test at the Nick will settle that.
36:57When we go in, they'll be putting you on the DNA checks anyway.
37:01In the meantime, every cloud has a silver lining.
37:04And on the plus side...
37:06Sorry, lads, you're going to have to find another route home, OK?
37:10We're taking the car.
37:12His passengers get to enjoy Northampton South services, complete with Road Chef and WH Smiths.
37:18All I can suggest is, in the service area, grab all your bits and bobs,
37:23and then obviously you can go from there.
37:25And while they hit the shops, it's a blue light taxi to the Nick for the innocent man.
37:33His story was his brother got him disqualified and used his details, which I didn't really believe.
37:39And we've gone all the way through the custody process.
37:42As we've gone to charge him, he's walked up to the desk and said,
37:44yeah, I'm disqualified.
37:46So he was telling porkies, basically.
37:49And he's got a nice day in court for the morning.
37:53In the morning, Big Brother was further disqualified for eight months
37:56for driving whilst disqualified and without insurance.
38:00He won't be joining his brother inside, but he was ordered to pay a hefty total of £782.
38:07Coming up...
38:12Where the going gets tough, the tough goes shopping.
38:16In the Tesco's.
38:19It's early evening.
38:41And Rob Halfleet's whistling along the 45 in the unmarked BMW.
38:45When a Blue 2 Series BMW hares along the slip road, undertaking cars and taking off.
38:56As Rob gets his toe down to keep it in sight...
38:58A second beamer passes him like a rocket.
39:09Can I get a moving vehicle check from you, please?
39:11The new boy races past the Blue 2 Series before cutting in front of it and crossing lanes without indicating.
39:20Then, when he finally does hit the anchors, one of his brake lights doesn't work.
39:25I'm just going to go to your location in the passage of your turn.
39:30It was 45, just getting off at Mirway.
39:33Index is Papa 26.
39:35Try and give it a stop.
39:36It's, I think, having a bit of a race with a 2 Series BMW.
39:41It's around 17.
39:45He'd be nuts to try racing Rob's BMW.
39:48It's an M340i with an advanced driver at the wheel.
39:55Even so...
39:57That's 17.
40:00Speedy's giving it a good go.
40:02He's now nearly double the limit.
40:08Which he may regret in a hurry too.
40:21Into Tesco's.
40:22Okay.
40:23Into Tesco's and not for the family shop.
40:32So, your starter for 10.
40:39I'm probably going to ask a really silly question because it's a really obvious answer.
40:42Why have I stopped you?
40:44Yeah.
40:45Also, your manner of driving on the 45 before you even got off the 45 was less than ideal.
40:51Yeah.
40:52Okay.
40:53Is it your car?
40:54It is, yeah.
40:55Okay.
40:55Have you got your driving license on yet?
40:58Cool.
40:58Let's have a look at that for starters.
41:00I was actually looking at that two series comp.
41:02So, he was driving a bit.
41:03Yeah.
41:04But he'd calmed down coming all the way down the 45 before you then came shooting past us in that outside lane.
41:09Okay.
41:10Okay.
41:11And then now I can't deal with him because I'm having to deal with you.
41:14Because I can't tell you what speed he did on a 40 mile per hour road.
41:17I can tell you, you got up to near 80.
41:19Because we were doing a consistent 72 in the run up to those lights.
41:23Okay.
41:24Do you think that's acceptable?
41:25No.
41:25No.
41:26Right.
41:26So, if you were in my boots, what would you do?
41:28Um, well, I'm not too sure to be honest.
41:32You're not too sure?
41:32No, no.
41:33I don't know what, yeah.
41:34Here's a clue.
41:35Okay.
41:36Have you got any points on your license?
41:37Uh, yes.
41:38I've got three.
41:41I'm going to ask what for.
41:42I can probably guess.
41:44Tyres.
41:44Tyres.
41:45Yeah, I got a random stop and I had one tire that was just below the limit.
41:50Okay, I'll give you that.
41:52That wouldn't have been my guess.
41:53My guess would have been speed.
41:55And there's something else Rob's struggling to guess.
41:57Uh, why the choice of only one Recaro seat as well?
42:03The reason why his racing bucket seat doesn't match the passenger one.
42:07I've got to ask.
42:08Or do you prefer, do you prefer comfort rather than a racing seat?
42:11I'm buying a pink one for it.
42:13What?
42:14You're buying a pink one.
42:15I'm not having black.
42:17I wanted blue, but there's not the colour blue I want.
42:19So I'm going to get pink.
42:20I've said if she wants a bucket seat, she can go whatever she wants.
42:24Okay, fair enough.
42:25I think it is.
42:26Yeah.
42:27It's not going to be you sitting in it, is it?
42:28I suppose.
42:29Exactly.
42:30Yeah, that's it.
42:31You may not be sitting in the driver's seat either after today.
42:35The problem is, is with the speed and the manner you're driving,
42:38I'd like to be able to admire your choice of pink and black bucket seats,
42:44whilst it's on four wheels, not in a crash upside down or in a ditch or something like that.
42:49You just can't drive like that.
42:50No, I don't.
42:51Okay.
42:51Where's your front plate gone as well?
42:53It's right behind me.
42:55It literally fell off a couple of days ago, but...
42:57Right.
42:58Basically, I've been working night shifts for the past three days.
43:01Okay.
43:01So I haven't had a chance to go half a step one yet.
43:04Okay.
43:05It's a long excuse.
43:0660 and yeah.
43:10And it's still going on.
43:12I do have it.
43:13It's literally just the screws fell off.
43:15Okay, get some screws, get that back on.
43:18I'm not going to worry about that.
43:20What I am going to do, however, is I'm going to report you for careless driving.
43:22Okay.
43:23Okay?
43:23You just need to chill it out.
43:25Because I'm sure if you were to bring your speed down,
43:27you wouldn't be able to nip into those spaces.
43:29You wouldn't cause other car or road users to have to put their brakes on and stuff like that.
43:33Okay?
43:33Okay.
43:34He's taking the careless driving accusation in his stride.
43:37Make sense?
43:38Yeah.
43:39Yeah.
43:39Okay.
43:40And seems more worried about his data going on the system.
43:44Um, Chinese have hacked into UK military defense or something.
43:49I heard.
43:51Chinese have hacked into something.
43:53Government wise of ours.
43:55That is far above my pay grade and far too important for me to worry about.
44:05The bucket seat driver was processed for driving without due care and attention.
44:10He was given a conditional offer and had to attend an educational course.
44:15Unlucky for him, foreign hackers hadn't managed to disable the police system.
44:20Cool.
44:20Appreciate it, mate.
44:21No worries.
44:22Though the only thing that sounds hacked around here is his BMW.
44:36Did he also catch up in an DO is heYeah Cash?
44:37Cause he couldn't leave some undoubtedly in an into the world.
44:38It's on the right side of the world.
44:39Or it cost me to Prof it up, isn't wasteieron, I was ziehen.
44:40But he doesn't have to pet yourself.
44:41He has to be in a long way to lose my fi.
44:43If it's too RSpr, he's payingmarks again, I've got to lose my all Greece style.
44:43Very poor point.
44:46I love the ort VR, like ours.
44:49Have a deal
45:02Mr alreadyанизmia.
45:03You want s RED.
