TVTranscript
00:02This is Police Interceptors.
00:05Police Interceptors, a real life one.
00:06I'm going to tell my kids about this.
00:08And you're riding with the pride of Northamptonshire.
00:13Come on!
00:14Ace Pursuit drivers.
00:16Contact, contact, contact.
00:17Ten past five on.
00:18With air support.
00:19Got two out, stand by.
00:21Come out!
00:22And a crack dog unit.
00:23If you leave, you will get hit.
00:27They bring down the bad guys.
00:30I believe you'll want it, mate.
00:33Keep the streets safe.
00:38And battle 24-7.
00:41Get down on the floor.
00:43In the war on crime.
00:45Crash, crash.
00:46This is what it is, isn't it?
00:49We find them, we lock them up.
00:54Coming up.
00:56He's a couple of miles.
00:57We're not.
00:58Tooled up for worse than DIY.
01:01Swords.
01:02More swords.
01:04Callum has a stab at why the Birmingham Four are on his patch.
01:07Oh, I know what you lot have been doing.
01:10You've been looking for Cannabis Factory.
01:14And then...
01:15Stay for the Titan!
01:16Proves he's no slouch in a foot race.
01:18What do I do, eh?
01:20It's on the floor, eh?
01:35ANPR have identified this as a confirmed clone.
01:39It's a late one.
01:40And Matt and Bertie are trying to find a clone SEAT.
01:43We suspect it's involved in criminality.
01:46The job a couple of nights ago where it was linked to potential stabbings.
01:52Intel suggests its occupants may be armed and the boys are keen to meet them.
01:57Have we got any ARBs for you?
01:59Even so, they'd prefer armed response vehicles in reserve when they do.
02:05What do I say?
02:06They're all having some food after the silver job, bless them.
02:09But firearms are grabbing food after a big job and Matt and Bertie don't want to lose the SEAT.
02:16Where is it going?
02:18Bertie might not carry a firearm, but he's taser-trained and ready to roll.
02:22And he rolls at a right race of knots.
02:31But as the dynamic duo race towards the spot of the last camera hit, the ANPR trail goes cold.
02:42CCTV picks up the search for the SEAT.
02:46There's not much traffic at this hour.
02:50And though this white hatchback isn't their clone, the car behind it is.
02:59The pair appear to be in convoy.
03:02They stop either side of a street corner and several masked men get out.
03:13It's a 3am crime flick as two of the five peel off.
03:19They seem to be armed and, as they vanish down a side street, this job is heating up.
03:26Can we confirm if it was swords or swords?
03:30We can go with swords.
03:33Swords?
03:34Swords or swords.
03:35Matt and Bertie are heading for a serious situation.
03:39It's a good game, isn't it?
03:44Patrol, I know the ARBs are in there having refs, but how long?
03:48They're ETA, so they're available.
03:50As the boys from traffic near the spot seen on CCTV, the masked pair re-emerge from the side street.
03:56And on closer look, their hardware falls firmly in the sores, not swords category.
04:04Something's gone on there. There's a couple of masks just run off.
04:07Two masked men have legged it.
04:09Yeah, they've got plenty. That's what's gone down the road.
04:12Three others are unaccounted for.
04:17There it is.
04:18I've got the vehicle. It's stationary.
04:21Stand by.
04:23They need to tread carefully.
04:33I think they've done over a cannabis factory control. Can you just...
04:37Stand by.
04:37Intel says this is a weed farm kept by one lone resident.
04:42The masked men may have robbed it.
04:45The front window for the living room's been done in.
04:47Lots are on.
04:49Or are still robbing it.
04:54They're still in there.
04:56They're still in there.
04:58Yeah, I know.
04:59Armed response vehicles are finally on the move, but they're a way away yet.
05:10Oh, shit.
05:11Get back, get back.
05:14Masked figures can be seen through a gap in the blind.
05:18Huh.
05:19They're in there. There's about three of them.
05:22And there are bloody paw prints on the window frame.
05:25Patrol, we've got three mouths inside.
05:27Downstairs, they don't know where it is.
05:29Matt and Bertie are outnumbered and on their own.
05:32They've got weapons.
05:33But they're armed with tasers.
05:34And if there is a farmer inside, his life could be in danger.
05:39It's like it's reinforced.
05:55Matt and Bertie have gone after a cloned car with links to weapons.
06:00We suspect it's involved in criminality.
06:02There was a job a couple of nights ago where it was linked to potential stabbings.
06:08Caught on CCTV, it's stopped with a second car.
06:11And masked men have decamped.
06:14Can we just confirm if it was swords or sores?
06:17Armed with sores, two of the men have done a runner.
06:21They're in there. About three of them.
06:23Three more are in a house that the cops think is a cannabis factory.
06:27Patrol, we've got three mouths inside.
06:28Downstairs, they don't know we're here. They've got a weapon.
06:31Armed response units are on the way, but time is of the essence.
06:36It's like it's reinforced. I don't know what we have.
06:39They need more serious hardware than Bertie's Saris 9s.
06:43Can we have an ARV to us, please, with an enforcer?
06:46Luckily, the cavalry's arrived.
06:48This one, mate, yeah.
06:49Packing 16 kilos of hardened steel known as the Enforcer.
06:55WHISTLE BLOWS
06:57WHISTLE BLOWS
06:58WHISTLE BLOWS
06:59WHISTLE BLOWS
06:59But even the big red key is struggling to open this one.
07:03WHISTLE BLOWS
07:04WHISTLE BLOWS
07:05WHISTLE BLOWS
07:06And concerns for the weed farmer are off the charts.
07:10WHISTLE BLOWS
07:11WHISTLE BLOWS
07:11Bingo.
07:12Right, mine.
07:13Get in.
07:15Wait for the dog!
07:17Get in. Get in.
07:19Get in.
07:20Confirm, go upstairs, don't worry, we've got access to the property.
07:23It's a grow. Intel was bang on.
07:27Professional set-up, street value-wise,
07:30you're looking at a few thousand, you'll say.
07:32But where are the armed men and the farmer?
07:35Yeah, this is all secure down here. The arms get out this way.
07:38You in here now, make yourself known now!
07:40Raise for the dog, make yourself known now!
07:42There are plenty of plants and places to hide.
07:45Raise for the dog! Show yourselves now!
07:49They have been to the rear door, cos there's blood on it.
07:52Can they get out of it? Is it locked?
07:54I bet they've gone out the window.
07:55A bit of detective work suggests they have.
07:58They have, haven't they, cos they've knocked that plant off the window.
08:00Yeah, and the curtain's hanging out the window.
08:02They must have slipped through the window and gone fence-hopping.
08:05It's over to the dog unit.
08:07Down. Good boy. Wait. Wait.
08:10The hunt's on for an armed gang and a potentially injured farmer.
08:18Stand still, mate. Stand still.
08:21Stand still. Be going down your back.
08:23Put your hands around your back. Face the wall.
08:25Face the wall. Face that way.
08:27Put your hands behind your back.
08:28The dog team has found a man cowering in a summer house,
08:31and they're confident he's the farmer.
08:34One in custody. Come on.
08:35When he's hiding in an outbuilding,
08:38he doesn't speak a word of English, right?
08:41So I always suspect, at the minute,
08:43he's probably growing cannabis in that address.
08:46And these lads have turned up to rob him and the address.
08:51They've then put the front window through,
08:53at which point he probably legged it out of the bag.
08:56With one suspect terrified, but all in one piece...
08:59Get in.
09:00..the dog and other units begin the search for the masked men.
09:05Get in. Find him.
09:08Get out of the gate now!
09:11..and soon find another suspect in the grounds of a commercial property.
09:16Call under.
09:16Why have you got in?
09:22Hands around your back.
09:24You're under arrest on suspicion of bird read.
09:26What's your name?
09:29Well, you're going to have to touch your name at some point.
09:34Jack.
09:35Jack the lad hasn't got much to say for himself.
09:42Maybe the guy nicked around the corner is more talkative.
09:45Get on the floor.
09:46Get on the floor.
09:48Get on the floor.
09:49You're taking the piss, aren't you?
09:50Don't get on my back.
09:51I've got scoliosis.
09:53No, thank you.
09:54Look at my tendons in my hand as well.
09:55Please don't snap them.
09:57That's all I ask.
09:57In fact, they can't shut him off.
10:03Who's in charge?
10:04Yeah, I'm spitting you up.
10:05He's walked over there.
10:05What are you using, guys?
10:07You've got a sweater, aren't you?
10:08Huh?
10:09So you've got a sweater, aren't you?
10:10Sweat on?
10:11Look how sexy you are.
10:12He's a laugh a minute.
10:14Oh, my God.
10:15It's a deadly concealed weapon.
10:16Empty.
10:17Nah.
10:18Next time.
10:19Maybe.
10:20Oh, my God.
10:21Look at all that cannabis in there.
10:22Oh, my God.
10:23I told my mum.
10:25I have a great idea, aren't you?
10:27Oh, yeah.
10:28Where's my transport?
10:29Where am I going in?
10:30You won't be coming in this one, unfortunately.
10:32I don't want to smell the beard oil.
10:33I don't want to go in there.
10:34Beard oil?
10:35100%.
10:36What?
10:37For my tiny moustache?
10:38That's not tiny.
10:40That's not tiny.
10:40I see what you're doing with your moustache as well.
10:42You know, when it goes below the bottom lip, they're trying to play bad man.
10:46Northampton's premier facial hair appraiser may or may not have anything to do with the weed farm breaking,
10:51but he's certainly got volume.
10:54You cut yourself.
10:54You got blood on you.
10:56What?
10:56You got blood on your tape.
10:58That's a period of blood.
10:59That's why I don't wear it, lads.
11:03He'll be lapping all the way to the nick once his transport arrives,
11:07ready to join suspect number one.
11:10Jump in about the mat.
11:10I'll get your jacket.
11:14In the meantime, firearms have scooped up a fourth man.
11:18All right?
11:20Who's not really into moustache pants.
11:23What?
11:24I said, are you...
11:24No, I'm not.
11:26That's all I've said.
11:28Five masked men were captured on CCTV, but only four suspects were caught by the cops.
11:35After an investigation, no action was taken against any of the men regarding alleged burglary with intent to steal.
11:42However, the non-English speaker found cowering in the outbuilding was sent to an immigration centre after he knowingly entered
11:49the UK without leave.
11:52Given the images captured on CCTV, it's a relief that Bertie and Matt came away unharmed.
12:01Years ago, coming across people with machetes and stuff like that was unusual, whereas nowadays it's regular.
12:08We've got more kit and equipment now and training and we've got access to stuff like taser and that, which
12:14is all good,
12:15but it all has its own limitations as well, so you have to be aware of it for your own
12:20safety.
12:33Wow.
12:34That's come right through your engine, babe.
12:37Around 350 people are injured on UK roads every day.
12:41If that had been another couple of inches higher, you'd be looking at being impaled by it.
12:46Cops are always looking to head off potential crashes.
12:48We're sitting at 95.
12:51And Scott and Joe are tracking an accident waiting to happen.
12:55We're just passing the slip road for the circuit to our near side.
13:01A Fiesta ST has just passed Silverstone.
13:04And its driver seems to think he's on the racetrack.
13:0895.95 mile an hour.
13:11But as he leaves the A43, his race is run.
13:15Near side indication.
13:18Vehicle stopped.
13:21It's a straightforward speeding ticket.
13:23Three points and a £100 fine.
13:27I know you're close to Silverstone, but the speed limit is still 70 miles an hour.
13:32But with around 300 people a year killed in speeding-related incidents,
13:36any chance to prevent an accident is a win.
13:39Take it easy.
13:43Unfortunately, other dicey drivers haven't been so lucky tonight.
13:48Car parked on the slip road.
13:50Vans got into the back of a car.
13:52And an occupant to the van has run off.
13:55Leaving the scene of a crash is a serious offence.
13:58So there could be a number of reasons why these people have run away from this van.
14:03It could be anything from not having a driving licence,
14:06to being intoxicated, being disqualified.
14:10Whatever the reason, cops need to find the driver,
14:13who fled in a place Scott knows well.
14:15It is a fairly rural area.
14:18There is quite a lot of distance to cover
14:20before you come to any form of civilisation.
14:23So where you see those lights ahead,
14:25that's the top of the slip road.
14:27OK.
14:29At the scene of the crash,
14:32Scott gets the full SP from the driver of the car that's been hit.
14:39Were you driver BM?
14:40Yeah. What happened?
14:41Short story.
14:42Yeah.
14:42I'm on my side.
14:43Yeah.
14:44He's in a big van, so I'm thinking...
14:45Is this one up here?
14:46Is it gone?
14:47They've left the keys on the tyre and everything.
14:48Oh, OK.
14:50After crashing into the BMW,
14:51the driver fled his tasty pimped-up VW
14:54and did one into nearby fields with three passengers.
14:59We've had a phone for an after recovery.
15:01Yeah.
15:01This recovery truck has been requested
15:03by potentially the driver of this vehicle.
15:07We'll get it recovered
15:08because it's a failed stop RTC.
15:11It seems the runaway driver rang a recovery company.
15:15The question is, where was he calling from?
15:18The chances are they're going to be stood along this road somewhere.
15:22Joe earned the nickname Jobby.
15:24When he was hit in the face by something nasty,
15:26Jack washed off his mate's boots.
15:30And rather than risk a dark field
15:32with all the perfumes of the countryside...
15:34Send Rob along the road to see if we can find them.
15:37...Joy's sending Rob.
15:38Where are these idiots?
15:39Along this road somewhere.
15:41The trick with jobs like this is to prove who was driving.
15:44If anyone denies being involved in this,
15:46we've got an airbag deployment,
15:47so it's going to be excellent forensic evidence,
15:49should somebody say they weren't the driver.
15:53But first things first, find the driver
15:56and the three passengers who ran from the van,
15:58who, witnesses say, made for this field.
16:02The light attached.
16:03Just follow them.
16:05Cue the great escape searchlights.
16:07Left, left, left.
16:08Stop.
16:11The light attached.
16:12No signs of life yet.
16:14I just wanted to see some movement here.
16:16And although a big torch and local knowledge go a long way...
16:19He's going to have tried maybe this path here, isn't he?
16:22Yeah.
16:22...it's quiet as the grave out there.
16:24I'm going to go see if...
16:25I'm going to go for a walk.
16:26I'll have the blood down here, then.
16:28Yeah, go on.
16:29Following his copper's nose,
16:31Rob's going full Blair Witch.
16:37You stand!
16:39Police!
16:39Come out now!
16:42I can see you down on the ground!
16:43We don't know if witches fear tasers.
16:46Get out here now!
16:47Police with tasers!
16:50Show me your hands!
16:51And we may never know.
16:52Come over here now.
16:54Towards me!
16:55Yeah, I've got to end this way.
16:56No far while.
16:58Because the figure Rob sniffed out,
16:59it's just a dodgy-looking bloke lying in a field.
17:03Keep coming round.
17:04Did you go across the path?
17:07No, you came across here, didn't you?
17:09Come left.
17:09Come left.
17:10There's a bit lower over here.
17:11Come left here.
17:12I'll do it.
17:14Right, face away on your knees.
17:15Face away on your knees.
17:16On your knees?
17:17On your knees.
17:18Put your hands on your head.
17:19Put your hands on your head.
17:20Put your hands on your head.
17:21Right, you're under arrest, mate.
17:23OK?
17:24Stop at the scene of an RTC.
17:25You don't have to say anything.
17:27You're going to make highly defensive
17:28if you do not mention one question or something
17:29that you're later allowed in court.
17:30I'm waiting for them.
17:31Anything you do say may be given an evidence.
17:34Anyone else with you?
17:35Yeah.
17:36Right, stand up front.
17:37Come.
17:38We're going to go towards the police car, all right?
17:40Yeah.
17:41One down, but there are still three suspects at large.
17:45Do you think there's anyone standing here?
17:47So, after loading Bushman into a car...
17:53The search begins for his mates.
17:55The eye is in the sky.
17:58Thermal imaging is go.
18:07I've got one more heat source over there.
18:11Is there somebody else over there?
18:13And there's a telltale glow in the darkness.
18:17I think they've got one more over there.
18:18It's not the fairest game of hide and seek.
18:22Straight over to the trees there.
18:24Show it straight out there, mate.
18:25Just in the trees there.
18:28Where it was here?
18:29Just down there by this fence.
18:30How's it?
18:32We're just walking into the...
18:34I've heard us there at the minute.
18:35Come with you.
18:37It's there somewhere.
18:38Come out. Come out.
18:39Wherever you are.
18:42Stand still.
18:43Put your hands out now.
18:45Oi!
18:49Put your hands behind your back.
18:50Do it now.
18:52Put your hands behind your back.
18:54Do it now.
18:55Stand.
18:56Stay on the floor.
18:57Put your phone.
18:58Just drop your phone.
19:02I don't drive.
19:03Put your hands behind your back, mate.
19:06I'm going to come in and handcuff you, OK?
19:08I'm going to come in and handcuff you, OK?
19:09Yeah, that's all right, mate.
19:09I'm recording me.
19:10You understand that?
19:11Yes, that's all right.
19:11It's all good.
19:15It's all good.
19:16It's all right, my friend.
19:17You're under arrest.
19:18No, all right.
19:18It's not seen a very traffic collision.
19:20I don't even drive, sir.
19:21I don't.
19:22I don't even drive, sir.
19:24What are you saying to me?
19:24I don't drive, sir.
19:25You don't drive?
19:26No, clearly.
19:28Well, someone was driving.
19:31The cops need to establish why they ran.
19:35When you're in here.
19:37OK, insufficient volume.
19:38You have to keep your legs tight around the end of the tube until I tell you to stop.
19:43And by the time Mr. I don't drive is marched to the cop cars, one possibility has emerged.
19:51It's 56, which is a fail anyway.
19:53So you're also now further under arrest for driving a motor vehicle.
19:55I'll show you the prescribed limit for alcohol.
19:57If he was driving the VW, then he's in a van load of trouble.
20:01Nice tight seat around the tube.
20:02Go into the device to a continuous breath until I tell you to stop.
20:05Keep going.
20:05Keep going.
20:06And stop.
20:07Sad.
20:09Right, so that's a fail at 48, OK?
20:11That's all right, mate.
20:11I ain't driving, so I'm all right.
20:13We've got one, can't I?
20:13No, that's good.
20:14No, I understand.
20:15I understand your perspective.
20:17Obviously, we don't know who was driving.
20:18But they intend to find out.
20:20So there's been four in this vehicle in all.
20:24Two have got into a car and left, which leaves the two that we've got.
20:28And it helps to have an airbag full of forensics.
20:31What is the full description, please, of the driver that you've got?
20:35And a full description from multiple witnesses.
20:38So it is all in black clothing, roughly five foot ten of average build.
20:46It has short male hair.
20:50We have a winner.
20:51Come in, Bushman number one, your time is up.
20:55I warn you that failure to identify the driver is an offence and may render you liable to prosecution.
21:00Well, I come round the corner, the other driver is half way in the road.
21:05Yeah?
21:06But it's half way in the road.
21:07I've tried moving out of the way, hit his back end, slid down the side of him.
21:11OK.
21:12We've hit each other.
21:14I've explained to him.
21:14I've given him my details.
21:15I've walked off to try and find help.
21:17OK.
21:17Up the road, I found lights up here.
21:19Huh?
21:19Lighted building.
21:21Crossed the fence, tried to find the lighted building.
21:24Thinking it was help.
21:25Then you see me.
21:26Lying in the undergrowth, well over the drink drive limit.
21:29To summarise that, were you the driver of the vehicle?
21:32Yes, I was.
21:32OK, thank you.
21:34If only it was always that easy.
21:37The search for the two outstanding passengers is called off.
21:40Take care.
21:42I don't drive is free to walk.
21:44And back at the nick, Bushman number one is free to sleep it off in a cell.
21:50Go ahead, grab your company.
21:51Go ahead, thanks.
21:56The driver, who lay in the dark looking for help, pleaded guilty to failing to stop after an accident and
22:01drink driving.
22:04The court ordered him to pay over two grand in fines and costs and took his licence for 14 months.
22:16Coming up.
22:17One running.
22:18A swift exit isn't swift enough to lose the dog.
22:22Stay where you are, mate.
22:23OK.
22:24Walk towards me.
22:25A whiff of weed doesn't go unnoticed.
22:28Who's got cannabis on in them?
22:29Please stings a bit in the car.
22:30They weren't born yesterday, lads.
22:32Come on.
22:33And a rogue horse isn't the only one with a long face.
22:37I'm going to admit something now, Lizbeth.
22:40I'm scared of horses.
22:56You can lift up.
22:57That's crazy, sir.
22:57With a fleet of high speed cars.
22:59I'm doing like 120 and it's just like a fool.
23:04Interceptors have the high ground on the roads.
23:08Yeah, 6'5", just failing to stop.
23:10But, when it comes to a foot race...
23:13Jeans, blue jumper, stupid haircut.
23:17..they're hamstrung by a seven-kilo handicap.
23:20Coming down the hill,
23:22I didn't know which was going to collapse first.
23:27We've got to run in all this kit.
23:30If it's young lads and they're wearing track-suit bottoms and trainers,
23:33they have a distinct advantage,
23:36both in weight and age, and probably fitness.
23:39It is frustrating, but they'll come again.
23:48It's the late show. Copy that.
23:51And a traffic cop's clocked a driver known for having no licence.
23:57Driving! He wasn't driving! He wasn't driving!
23:59He's my car! He wasn't driving!
24:02Right, don't lie to me. I saw him pass me.
24:06It's a confusing scene.
24:08The car belongs to the girl in the back.
24:10The shy front-seat passenger...
24:12Right, who's with him? Why are you hiding your face?
24:14..is making to get out.
24:16What's going on there?
24:17..and the driver's proper shifty.
24:19Where's the car key?
24:20The car key? Let me look for it, won't you?
24:22Right, just a minute.
24:24..he's really shifting now.
24:28One running!
24:31The driver has a history of running from the cops.
24:34289, Bradley's running, Oxford Road.
24:37..which...
24:38..hasn't always ended well for him.
24:41Three, four!
24:42Get on the floor!
24:43Come on, Dominique, get on the floor, now!
24:46But tonight, he has the single-crew traffic cop at a disadvantage.
24:50Yeah, back towards the high street.
24:52Completely out of view at the minute.
24:53..because she can't leave the car and passengers.
24:56Obviously, I've still got three with the vehicle.
24:58..time to marshal the troops.
25:01If we can get 2-4 here to do a track,
25:04erm, there's no real pedestrians around.
25:07Unfortunately for the driver...
25:10..90 and Police Dog Blue are in the area.
25:13We're making the scene of that stop,
25:16see if we can get a track from there.
25:20..hopefully he's gone to ground not too far away.
25:22As the dog team approaches the scene,
25:25the traffic cop has her hands full with the car's owner.
25:28Right, you're not having your car back.
25:31Why?
25:32Because Bradley's driving it and he's short.
25:34He wasn't...he wasn't driving!
25:35Right, don't bullshit me, I've had enough of you!
25:37He wasn't driving!
25:38I've had enough of you!
25:39I've had enough of you!
25:39Yes, cos you're lying.
25:40Don't lie!
25:41In love of me?
25:42Yeah.
25:42He wasn't driving!
25:44Listen, I'm not listening to your rubbish and your lies.
25:47Well, it looks like we're here.
25:49Blue's impatient to find his man.
25:51All right.
25:52All right, Blue boy.
25:55But Nighty needs to get up to speed.
25:58Bradley shot across the sea.
25:59I've grabbed him, tried to pull him back and he's just...
26:02And he's gone.
26:02Where was he last then?
26:03He's gone on that footpath there.
26:05So he's gone up towards the wreck?
26:07Yeah.
26:07OK, no worries.
26:09There might be a few for Bradley.
26:12Release the land shark.
26:14Come on.
26:14That's a good lad.
26:20Fine track.
26:23Blue's favourite treats are sardines.
26:25So you wouldn't want to be downwind of him.
26:28And if you're on the run...
26:29Good lad.
26:31...you wouldn't want to be anywhere near him.
26:34What?
26:35Either the takeaway over the road sells sardines...
26:38...or the passerby outside it...
26:42...isn't passing by at all.
26:45Bradley.
26:46Stay where you are, mate.
26:48OK.
26:48Walk towards me.
26:50Walk.
26:50Brad.
26:51Brad.
26:52Brad.
26:53We've got way back.
26:54Walk towards me.
26:56Yeah.
26:58Mate.
26:59He's secure.
27:01Just keep walking towards me, Bradley.
27:02I've got you, man.
27:03I've got you, man.
27:04Do you want to cross this road for us?
27:07Come on this side.
27:08Come on this side for me.
27:10It's about...
27:11Right.
27:12At the moment...
27:14I'll chat to you now.
27:15Yeah.
27:15Mate.
27:16Mate.
27:18Before I start chatting to you...
27:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:23Talk to my colleagues, mate.
27:26They can explain all.
27:30Good boy.
27:31It turns out 90 and this lad go way back.
27:34Where do you know me from?
27:35Rigston, mate.
27:36I used to be a beat cop way back in the day.
27:39When PC Mitchell and Clark was about.
27:41Yeah.
27:42Yeah, man.
27:43And the dogman's relieved he didn't have to feed a familiar face to Blue.
27:47You made the right decision, mate.
27:49I don't...
27:50I must do...
27:50You don't want to...
27:50I don't want to argue with this fella.
27:51I'm not sheepish.
27:52No.
27:52You're not.
27:53But you are nicked.
27:54I don't have a licence.
27:55I can't drive.
27:57Teamwork makes a dream work.
28:0190's familiar face was charged with driving without a licence or insurance.
28:06He failed to turn up the court, but was later rounded up and pleaded guilty to both charges.
28:12Plus, an additional charge of failing to appear.
28:15He was ordered to pay £295 and got six points.
28:20But at least he knew when to stop running.
28:25And at least night he got to perform a little police PR with the locals.
28:30And we got to do the trout power.
28:32What's that?
28:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
28:33When you do your top lip.
28:34Nah, look.
28:35Police intercept.
28:36I'm like, this is crazy stuff.
28:37Like, this is cool.
28:38We think so.
28:40Have a pen.
28:41Oh, it says police intercept.
28:44That's cool.
28:49As we've just seen, single crew carps are at a disadvantage when bad guys do a runner.
28:55One running.
28:56But with reinforcements, interceptors usually get their man.
29:00Stay where you are mate.
29:02And as night he says.
29:03Teamwork makes the dream work.
29:10Single crew today, Callum's behind a Mercedes with links to a potential assault.
29:15A near side indication.
29:18Toward the Penfold Lane.
29:19He's got to a natural stop Penfold Lane.
29:21I'm going to light him up.
29:31Turn the engine off for me buddy.
29:35Turn the engine off.
29:38Turn the engine off.
29:42Turn the engine off.
29:44The vehicle stops.
29:45One hour.
29:47Yeah, yeah.
29:47Have you got any ID on you mate?
29:48Yeah.
29:49He's dressed for the gym, but eating a burger.
29:52I just ate from McDonald's.
29:54So, mixed messages on the fitness front.
29:57Just tell me the key.
29:58Two seconds mate.
29:59Yeah, yeah, of course.
30:00Thank you buddy.
30:01The car's secure.
30:03But...
30:04Er, 6-4.
30:04Who's the man looking for?
30:05Is this the man they're after?
30:07Where did I get stopped?
30:09I'll tell you in a second.
30:10Alright.
30:11This is where it's preferable to be double crewed.
30:13Can I get my cigarettes please in the back room?
30:16One second.
30:17Um...
30:18Because this is the man linked to the suspected assault.
30:21Pop your hands behind your back for me mate.
30:23Alright.
30:23The best advice Callum's had from a cop is it's a 30 year career, don't rush it.
30:31But sometimes...
30:32Can you count the undercoat?
30:34Sleep for the taser!
30:35You've no choice.
30:37He's breaking off, sleep I know what!
30:38The guy's in his gym kit.
30:40Sleep for the taser!
30:41Callum's in seven kilos of police kit.
30:44Tenfold down, close to the plate.
30:47But the interceptor is still gaining.
30:51Tenfold drive, tenfold drive.
30:53It's number five, tenfold drive.
30:55It's not over yet.
31:05But by the time reinforcements roll in...
31:08Here you go, here you go.
31:10...it is.
31:13Subject secure.
31:14Yes Kevin.
31:15Good job Callum.
31:16You don't have to say anything but a man with defence.
31:17Do you not mention him in question to be allowed right in court?
31:19Anything you do say may be given the evidence.
31:21You've got to snap your leg.
31:24The Lycra client runner, who couldn't outrun Callum, pleaded guilty to obstructing police
31:29and was ordered to pay a total of £182.
31:33No further action was taken regarding the suspected assault.
31:36So if he hadn't run, he'd have been in the clear.
31:44Once upon a time, cops fought crime with no more than a truncheon and a whistle.
31:50Not anymore.
31:53There's something thermal showing in that garden.
31:56From thermal imaging drones...
31:58To 40,000 volt tasers...
32:04The cops have gone high tech.
32:07Clearly remnants of cannabis.
32:09But so have the bad guys.
32:13Whether they're rewiring a weed farm...
32:15Some of this stuff is bypassing electric meters.
32:18...or cloning the frequency of your car key.
32:21That is well known for keyless thefts.
32:23So I think we definitely have our man.
32:26I think it's inevitable that criminals will use technology to commit crime
32:31because as the world gets more and more technological,
32:36it just makes sense that they've got to move with the times.
32:39We have to move with the times as well and try and keep up with what they're doing
32:44so that we can counteract it.
32:54It's a quiet shift, so Callum and Matt have made a pit stop.
32:59Tom's marked car is already on the forecourt, so he's not exactly rolling in action either.
33:04Ooh! Ooh!
33:07Two minutes ago, that car that was previously made off from officers has hit Bambury Road Brackley Out,
33:12so it's probably going to be back towards us in Bambury.
33:14That's a bit more exciting than a double-decker.
33:16It's previously made off at speed after seeing officers.
33:19The target car has come down from Birmingham.
33:22Here's a silver Mercedes.
33:25And it shouldn't be hard to spot at this hour.
33:27There's nothing on the road. It's going to be the only car that we'd see on the other side.
33:31I think Tom's following us.
33:32Yeah, that's good, though.
33:34There's nothing here, so it'll be the next car we'd see.
33:41Yeah, it's that one.
33:44Should've gone back.
33:45Yeah, we'll have a look.
33:46Not as quickly as Tom, you won't.
33:49He's done you there, boy.
33:51Tom might want the biggest slice of the action,
33:53but they need the unmarked beamer behind the target.
33:56Go for it.
34:00We'll see what happens.
34:02Clearly clocked us. It's slammed off.
34:05No-one wants the Merc to reach the dual carriageway.
34:09Do it sooner rather than later,
34:11because the next roundabout after this one's going to be the...
34:14Light map, see what it is.
34:15But when they light him up, he pulls in without drama.
34:19It's going to be the M4 jump.
34:23And it's a belt-and-braces stop as Tom gets in on the action.
34:286-0, we'll have vehicle stops.
34:31All right, are you OK?
34:32All right, thanks.
34:35How many's in it?
34:37One, two, three, four.
34:38Who's got cannabis on in them?
34:40Well, it stinks of it in the car.
34:42It's for someone else, or someone's been smoking it.
34:44We weren't born yesterday, lads, come on.
34:46The front seat passenger owns up.
34:49You've got a little bit on you, have you?
34:52Yeah.
34:53He's saying you've got a little bit on him in the front, Callum?
34:54Yeah, he's got it.
34:56Thank you, is that yours, then?
34:57Yeah, that one.
34:59Right, lads, so you're all detained for the purpose...
35:02And yourself, sorry.
35:03You're all detained for the purpose of the search.
35:05That's because we can smell cannabis,
35:07and you've just provided cannabis to us.
35:08Have you got anything on you you shouldn't have?
35:10Nothing at all, no?
35:13Where are you from?
35:14From Birmingham.
35:15Birmingham.
35:16What are you doing down this way, then?
35:17You should be in bed.
35:18Huh?
35:19What are you doing down this way?
35:20Chilling now.
35:21Sorry?
35:22Chilling?
35:23Just chilling.
35:24So chilled, they need gloves.
35:26And this guy's dropped his.
35:28Is that yours?
35:30Hmm?
35:31Is that yours?
35:32It's dead.
35:36Well, it's just fallen out of your coat as I pulled it out of the car.
35:39Glove denier isn't the only one who seems to have something to hide.
35:43You've just taken your hand out of your pants.
35:44Do it, give it to me now, I'm going to lock you up.
35:46Lock what?
35:47Have you seen you take your hands out of your pants?
35:49Ain't nothing got for that.
35:50Whatever he's hiding, he's going to give it up one way or another.
35:54Put your arms behind your back.
35:57Pack it in.
35:59Stop resisting.
35:59I'm not resisting after that.
36:01You are.
36:01You're tensing up for no reason at all.
36:04What's down your pants?
36:05Nothing.
36:08What's down your pants for?
36:10Nothing, man.
36:11Right, you can either be honest with us or you're going to go all the way to Northampton
36:14and get strip searched.
36:15Oh, it'll be the, er...
36:17It'll be the lock knife that he's just tried to chuck in the back seat.
36:20Lock knife.
36:20Oh, good old boy.
36:21Oh, good old boy.
36:22It's a very offensive weapon, alright?
36:23It's a nasty one, innit?
36:28And it locks.
36:32The trouble is, I don't know how you unlock it.
36:34How do you re-lock it?
36:38I don't know, it's not mine.
36:39Oh, funny that.
36:41Alright, well, it wasn't there a second ago when I was leaning in the car and looking at you.
36:45And funny enough, when we pull you out the car, it was there.
36:47And the car contains something else of interest.
36:50What on earth is that?
36:54What's that?
36:54It's like a speed gun.
36:56Oh, no, it's a heat-seeking.
36:57That's a heat-seeking thing.
36:58Thermal.
37:00Remarkably, they've got a two grand thermal camera in the boot.
37:04Why on earth have you got a thermal?
37:05Why have you got a load of gloves on you as well?
37:07Multiple pairs of gloves and a thermal imaging camera.
37:10Does it work?
37:12Yeah.
37:12Point it at Callum's head and you'll see the synapses fire while he joins the dots.
37:18Oh, I know what you lot have been doing.
37:20You've been looking for cannabis factories.
37:23They've got it all saved on their device as well.
37:24As we've already seen, people aren't afraid to try and rip off rival cannabis factories.
37:31And the more sophisticated sometimes use thermal cameras to find them.
37:36Oh, silly boys.
37:40While Callum can't prove the boys were scoping for cannabis farms,
37:43recordings on this camera are certainly suspicious.
37:47Oh, you're not supposed to save your evidence.
37:49What are you, the old cannabis intel team from Westmids?
37:54No. No, of course not. No.
37:56No. Naughty, naughty people.
37:59You've been hiding in people's gardens and all sorts.
38:02I think we'll be seizing that.
38:03One of these lads has got a thermal imaging camera
38:06which has got photos of loads of properties down in Brackley
38:09stored on it, looking at the roofs.
38:12So there's a potential that these have been scouting out
38:15for cannabis factories down in Brackley.
38:17We're seizing that, mate. You ain't having that back.
38:19The vehicle's going to be left to go on its way.
38:21The driver is all in order.
38:23Front-seat passenger has been dealt with for possession of cannabis.
38:26Rear near-side passenger.
38:29He is the one that's under arrest for possession of lock knife.
38:32And we will be taking him back to Northampton.
38:35No further action was taken regarding allegations of making off from police
38:39nor scoping out cannabis farms.
38:42However, the lad with the lock knife was found guilty of possession of a bladed article.
38:48He had violated multiple bail conditions, so the court came down hard,
38:53ordering him to pay a total of £837 and sending him down for 39 weeks.
39:02The passenger with the weed got a community order, while no further action was taken against the other occupants of
39:08the Merc.
39:09As for the seized camera, it was never claimed, and North Hands now use it to find missing persons.
39:15It was also highly illuminating for the drug squad.
39:22On the actual camera, it saves all the images, so we were able to see exactly sort of which house
39:26they'd been to,
39:27which ones were warm, which one was cold, so it's quite good intel for us,
39:31because now we've got a good idea of where the cannabis factories are.
39:33Coming up...
39:35I would rather tackle a knife-wielding maniac...
39:38Yes.
39:39..than deal with that.
39:41...Jingle faces his toughest challenge yet.
39:58It's nearly 6am, and Jingle is responding to reports of a wanderer on the Northampton Road.
40:05I'm going to say now, I don't like horses.
40:11Seems pretty happy just sitting there, man.
40:14She looks like a nice wet grass there, doesn't it?
40:16Someone has to go out there.
40:19Lizbeth, you're there.
40:21But it's not going to be Jingle.
40:23I'm here, my darling, darling.
40:25Lizzie is the cop's resident horse whisperer.
40:28There is indeed a horse on Northampton Road in Browland.
40:32What colour is it?
40:34It's white. It's got a coat on.
40:37Like a proper rug.
40:40Traveller horses don't normally have proper rugs on, do they?
40:43It doesn't sound particularly travellerish, to be fair.
40:48Can you get near it?
40:49Oh, dear Jingle.
40:50I'm going to admit something now, Lizbeth.
40:53I'm scared of horses.
40:56All right, I'm on the way to...
40:58I'll stop at the GP garage and get some mints and things like that.
41:01Yeah.
41:03Very good.
41:05Jingle might be content to wait for reinforcements, but the horse is not.
41:09It's on the move, which means the time has come to face the fear.
41:14If it eats meat, I'm in trouble.
41:18You're a natural.
41:20I'm going to call it Dave.
41:23Dave the horse.
41:25I can't work out where it's even come from,
41:27because all the gates nearby seem to be locked and secure.
41:31Maybe ask Neighbourhood Watch.
41:39Miserable morning.
41:41And we're with Dave the horse.
41:43And here comes the horse whisperer.
41:48A horse.
41:49Can we get the tow rope out for me and take off the metal for it?
41:54It's called Dave.
41:55The plan is to rein Dave in with the modified tow rope of a Volvo XC60.
42:01Well, that's great. Now what are we doing?
42:02You're giving me favouring to feed Dave and me.
42:05I don't want to... That's why I don't like them.
42:07Just open me.
42:10Come and feed Dave and me.
42:12I don't like horses.
42:14Neither do I. I'm scared of them.
42:17Look, it's the eyes.
42:19Never trust the eyes of a horse.
42:21He's going to spit.
42:23There's a polo.
42:28No, I'm not feeding them.
42:29I would rather tackle a knife-wielding maniac than deal with that.
42:35Well, someone has to deal with it,
42:37because though Dave has minty fresh breath
42:39and a fetching Volvo harness, they need somewhere to put him.
42:44Does she live down there?
42:45She lives down there and she's got a load of horses.
42:47And Jingle has a brainwave.
42:49Can you get her to bring something up?
42:51A retired officer who lives nearby keeps horses.
42:54I feel bad knocking on somebody's door at six o'clock.
42:56Just because they've got a horse.
43:02But needs must, and after a short wait for the door,
43:05Jingle delivers one of the weirdest speeches of his career.
43:09Hello.
43:10Hello.
43:11I'm sorry to knock on the door.
43:13Sorry.
43:13However, we've got a loose horse out on Northampton Road.
43:17I'm not the only person I know in the village that's gone.
43:20The speech has the desired effect, because half an hour later...
43:25..the horse-loving ex-officer arrives on scene for a rainy reunion.
43:33Hello.
43:34Hello.
43:35Hello.
43:36Hello.
43:36How are you?
43:37And an attempt to ID the suspect.
43:40Oh, I think this is Jono.
43:42Oh, I'm glad you know who he is.
43:44We called him Dave.
43:45I think it's Jono.
43:47With a possible ID, they now need someone to stable Dave Jono
43:51until he can be reunited with his owner.
43:54You're ever so good.
43:56And it's the ex-officer to the rescue again,
43:58because she's agreed to put him up.
44:01Go on, love.
44:01Lizzie just needs to get him there.
44:03Can't you just jump on its back?
44:06After a long walk to a good night's sleep,
44:09Dave, Jono, the horse, was reunited with his owner.
44:13The question is, did Jingle's brush with a living, breathing nightmare
44:18cure Jingle's philly-phobia?
44:21No.
44:22Still don't like him.
44:28Good evening.
44:29Tonight at ten.
44:30As a man, he gives us money.
44:34Money for what?
44:35Different stuff.
44:36If this gets in the wrong hands, I'm done.
44:42Yes, power.
44:43The downfall of Hugh Edwards for a new drama tomorrow at nine.
44:47Next Police Hour of Duty.
