01:005, 4, 3, 2, 1.
01:31Right, well...
01:32Yeah, I'll see you then, when I see you next weekend.
01:34That's probably Friday.
01:36Yeah, OK, all right.
01:38Think of me tonight.
01:39Yeah, I will, don't you.
01:40And phone us sometime, of course.
01:43Yeah, I'll give you a ring tonight, don't you know?
01:45That's it.
01:46OK.
01:47Right.
01:48Cheers then, Dad.
01:49Look after yourself.
01:50I'll be all right.
01:51OK.
02:00Room 14 is where?
02:08Room 14 is up to the left.
02:12And when you get to the top, there's a little archway.
02:14You go through there and you're in behind the panel.
02:16You'll see 12 when you go through the doorway, 13, 14.
02:20Up the top left.
02:21Right upstairs here to the left.
02:23OK, thanks.
02:25Now, to finish it, we come back down here
02:27and we have lounges where you can take, you know, your ease
02:31and look at the books.
02:32All right?
02:33Thanks a lot.
02:57All right, you can sit down now.
03:14Well, good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
03:16I'm the commandant here, Superintendent Eden.
03:19Some of you, the ex-cadets, will know me.
03:22The rest of you will get to know me as your service progresses.
03:27I'd like to welcome you to Solhamstead
03:30on the start of what is really,
03:33if you're seriously considering the police force as a career,
03:36and I take it you've all made a conscious decision on that line,
03:4030 years of hard work.
03:42You can see if it looks all right, but I can't tell if it feels.
03:45That's an idea.
03:47OK?
03:48It feels a bit better.
03:50A bit better, is it?
03:51Mm-hmm.
03:52Have a look yourself in the mirror over there.
04:12Yes, a bit stiff, I'm sorry.
04:15Yes, a bit stiff.
04:19Mm-hmm.
04:20And that's your lot for today.
04:22The rest will be with you on...?
04:24Friday.
04:25On Friday.
04:33Hold your wrist up like that, stiff.
04:47OK.
04:49And the other one.
04:55That's it, lovely.
04:56Right, wash your hands over there,
04:58and then go and slip a tunic on.
05:02OK, just look straight at the camera.
05:04Can you brush your hair back just a little bit from your eyes?
05:08That's it, lovely.
05:11Look straight at the camera.
05:16Close your eyes, open.
05:25Close your eyes, open.
05:28That's it.
05:29OK.
05:30That's it.
05:31OK, look straight in the lens.
05:35That's it.
05:36OK.
05:43Sit down, please.
05:49Can I introduce you to Mrs. Richards, J.P.,
05:52who will take your declarations this afternoon?
05:57Would you like to start, please?
06:02I, Caroline Frances Newman, of Oxford, Oxfordshire,
06:06do solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm
06:09that I will well and truly serve our Sovereign Lady, the Queen,
06:13in the office of Constable.
06:15I, Michael William Maughan, of Hexham, Northumberland.
06:18I, Frances Richly, of High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.
06:21I, Diana Wendy Hartley, of Cardiff, South Glamorgan.
06:26I, Stephen David Wood, of St. Helens, Merseyside.
06:30I, Robert Mitchelmore, of Canterbury, Kent,
06:33do solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm
06:36that I will well and truly serve our Sovereign Lady, the Queen,
06:39in the office of Constable, without favour or affection,
06:42malice or ill will, and that I will, to the best of my power,
06:45cause the peace to be kept and preserved,
06:47and prevent all offences against persons
06:50and properties of Her Majesty's subjects,
06:52and that, while I continue to hold the chair of office,
06:55I will, to the best of my skill and knowledge,
06:57discharge all the duties thereof faithfully according to law.
07:07Mr Eden, police constables,
07:09may I thank you, sir, for inviting me to Southampton
07:12to take part in the declaration ceremony.
07:15When I write my signature on your certificates,
07:18I often wonder whether my constables
07:21will one day become a chief constable.
07:24To finish on a more personal note,
07:27may I say that my hearing at the present time is excellent,
07:31but may I also suggest that when you give evidence in court,
07:35you give it in a very clear, concise way.
07:38We all want to hear what you have to say,
07:41so please speak up and don't ever be tempted
07:44to mumble into your pocketbooks.
07:47May I now wish every one of you good luck in your chosen career,
07:50enjoy the work and always uphold the very high standards
07:54for which our police are well known.
07:56May I thank you, sir, once again,
07:58for inviting me to take this declaration ceremony.
08:07No more for you the luxury of walking along the street
08:11and seeing something and then deciding to leave it alone.
08:15If something happens now in your presence,
08:17you are a police officer and you are required to take some action about it.
08:20So there is a very important difference
08:22between the start of the week and now.
08:24When you go to your training centre,
08:27you've got facing you ten weeks of hard work.
08:30Whilst you are at these centres,
08:32you are now officers of the Thames Valley Police.
08:36If you do anything there which lets yourself down,
08:41you will automatically bring a certain discredit upon your force.
08:46What do you think it is? A clay stick? It's not.
08:48That's not a clay stick.
08:50That is a double-edged samurai sword.
08:52Look at it!
08:54Can you see the edge glistening in the sunlight?
08:57What I'm going to do now, of course,
08:59is to bring it down across your elbow here
09:02with sufficient force to take it clean off.
09:04It goes right through the flesh, the tissue, the muscle and the bone
09:07and running underneath your arm is the brachial artery.
09:10And because your heart now is starting to go pitter-patter
09:13and your carotid is jumping about all over the place,
09:15then blood is going to shoot 50 feet up there.
09:18But don't worry, because that honourable man there...
09:20What are you laughing at, lad?
09:22Because when I cut his arm off, you're going to leap out here
09:24and it gets the blood on your bloody chest, aren't you?
09:26Aren't you? Yes, Sergeant.
09:28Of course, there's only one way
09:30that you can get out of picking your nose with your left hand ever more, isn't it?
09:33Yes, Sergeant. When I give you eyes front,
09:35your head and eyes and your right arm will come down with the speed of light.
09:38It will beat my samurai sword.
09:40If it doesn't, do you believe I'm going through with this cut?
09:43Do you believe it? Yes, Sergeant. You'd better, lad.
09:46Let's see some movement, shall we?
09:48Eyes front!
09:51Fall back here, quickly.
09:53That is the speed with which your right arm will return to your side.
09:58His arm will always return at that speed.
10:01Let's do these dressings again, then.
10:03In open order. Right dress!
10:06Right turn! Turn right arm! Turn right arm!
10:09Half-paces. Dad, quickly, move yourself.
10:11Dressing front to rear. You're now starting to work.
10:13It's taken 40 minutes. You're now starting to think for yourselves.
10:18Eyes front!
10:20Better.
10:22In close order.
10:24Right dress!
10:26Right turn! Turn right arm! Turn right arm!
10:29Come on, move yourself, lad.
10:31Remember, rear rank, you must take a half-pace forward on the close order.
10:35Someone stood bloody stock still, then. I'll have him next time.
10:38Eyes front!
10:41Of course, the Home Office say
10:43that police officers in uniform, in training, will do drill.
10:47So we've got nobody's choice, have we?
10:50What we'll do now, then, for the remainder of this lesson,
10:52is have a look at you marching along.
10:55Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left!
11:00Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left!
11:04You, with a simple pimple on your head, lad.
11:06Let your arms gently aside. Ignore your arms, lad. Forget them!
11:09Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right!
11:13Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right! Left! Right!
11:16So grit your teeth, get up that hill and let it carry you down.
11:22Are you ready? Go!
11:25So, do you think you're going to go out into that big wide world and deal with members
11:38of the public?
11:39Yes, sir.
11:40Well, you've just said you're lacking in worldly experience.
11:46You're not fit to be a police officer, that's what you're telling me.
11:52You're not a particularly smart fellow, are you?
11:55No, sir.
11:56No, well, look at your hair, have you combed it today?
11:59Yes, sir.
12:01Because I see you sat at that desk, you're lying on the desk, you're slouching there.
12:05Now, I've said to you just now that the signals really matter.
12:11Now, if you go up to a member of the public looking scruffy, what are they going to think?
12:16That I'm scruffy, sir?
12:19Yes, and what are they going to think of your ability?
12:22They might not trust me.
12:24Them? They certainly won't.
12:26They might not even pay you in empty crisp packets.
12:29Now, what sort of reflection is that on the best police service in the world?
12:34A bad one, sir.
12:35A bad one?
12:37So, don't you think you ought to buck your ideas up a bit?
12:40Yes.
12:41What am I doing, gentlemen?
12:43Thank you very much, Mr. Anderson.
12:46What am I doing to that man?
12:48What am I attacking?
12:51His background, sir.
12:53Not only his background, but...
13:00Yes.
13:02His whole feeling of himself.
13:06His whole personality.
13:10What I was basically saying was he was no good.
13:15That's why I asked you just now what you did before you came into the job.
13:19Before that.
13:21I didn't mean to offend you in any way if I did.
13:25Do try to remember that there is a self-image,
13:29remember its existence, that it is a sensitive area,
13:32and the dangers of attacking intentionally or unintentionally.
13:37You will be far better to accept the abuse
13:43and then act according to the law
13:46than take the law into your own hands.
13:50Because once you have taken the law into your own hands, you have lost.
14:12Come on, let's go.
14:15Six minutes, 21. Right, in your line, quickly.
14:22Good. Deep one.
14:36Right, you unfit thing. Get to the other end where you belong.
14:40Right, relax. Shake hands down by your sides.
14:43So what else can we do for this person we see committing a minor offence?
14:50You'd caution them if you didn't report them.
14:53We could caution them. We could give them a rollicking.
14:58We could say to them,
15:00look, you've parked on double yellow lines, don't be daft, move along,
15:04let's not park there again. Couldn't we?
15:08Would we do that all the time? No.
15:11If you're walking down the street on a Sunday morning
15:14and you see somebody stop outside the paper shop
15:17and there's only him there and there's no obstruction,
15:20you might well go and say, come on, move along, you're committing an offence.
15:24If he turns round and says, I won't,
15:28then we've got no alternative. We've got to then report.
15:31But for minor offences, my advice to you would be
15:35consider giving them a caution for the offence,
15:39a rollicking, telling them off for it.
15:42They will think more of you for it
15:46and hopefully they won't commit the offence again.
15:53So what else can we do?
15:56We can't arrest them, we've discussed that.
15:59We report them for summons,
16:02or we caution them. What else can we do?
16:05And what do, in fact, some policemen do
16:08when they see a minor offence being committed?
16:11Is it Kennedy?
16:14Do they ignore it?
16:17I know they shouldn't, but do they ignore it?
16:20Yes, unfortunately, some people do.
16:23They walk along the road and they see him parked on double yellow lines
16:26and they turn round and they go...
16:30and they ignore it.
16:33This chap then thinks he is entitled to park on double yellow lines.
16:37He thinks he's entitled to get away with it.
16:40And he isn't.
16:43So we do not ignore offences at all.
16:46Even if we just go and tell somebody off,
16:49it is better than ignoring it.
16:52Get your dog off of my garden, mate.
16:55It's been doing all the trouble.
16:58All me roses, I'm always digging them.
17:01If you don't want this up here, you can have it.
17:04And when you find your dog here, you get it.
17:07Or else you get this right up here.
17:10Go on, shove off.
17:13Do you know who I am?
17:16I'm the police officer.
17:19I pay rates just like the rest of them.
17:22In the garden now,
17:25the one with the hat and the cigarette in his mouth,
17:28he just threatened me with that fork.
17:31And he's telling you about my dog and asking you about the doggies.
17:34He comes threatening me with that fork.
17:37Why did he do that?
17:40I don't know. I think he's upset about the mess on his garden.
17:43He says it's from my dog. I mean, that's quite ridiculous.
17:46I say, you're the man that just threatened me with that fork.
17:49Shove off, mate. I've had enough of you.
17:52I've had enough of watching this dog, mate.
17:55It's a blooming great brute.
17:58What's the point of trying to keep him pay rates?
18:01Why don't you do something about it?
18:04Has he got a licence for that dog?
18:07That's not the problem at the moment, is it?
18:10Yes, it is, mate. I reckon that dog's running around without a licence.
18:13What you're looking for at the moment is your dog.
18:16Yes, and I think that my dog's been in his garden
18:19for quite a while now.
18:22My dog doesn't do things like that.
18:25I always do it in my own garden.
18:28Tell me one moment.
18:31Why don't you get him out of the way?
18:34Would you object if my budgerigar flew over your garden
18:37and did a little mess in your garden?
18:40No, he's bound a plate of mickey out of me just because I'm not educated.
18:43Go on, fix him up.
18:47You can have one right up him.
18:50That's what he said to me before.
18:53You just stay in your garden and you and I will go looking for your dog.
18:56If I get hold of that dog, I'll get one up him as well.
18:59This is a madman. He ought to do something about him.
19:02I can't have people threatening me. I only live along the road.
19:05He keeps threatening that pork and poking at him.
19:08If you incite the man, he can only expect that.
19:11That's right. He's incited me, mate.
19:14That's what he is.
19:17He's a trouble, mate.
19:20It's people like him ought to be shot.
19:23Don't you shout at me like that, mate.
19:26He threatened those men over there with your pork.
19:29I'll pay your wages.
19:32I didn't tell you to do whatever you like nowadays.
19:35Don't these bloomin' policemen come and do any more.
19:38Go on, run, you coward.
19:41Do you want for this dog?
19:44Tell us what you then had, Mr Kennedy.
19:47I then had an argument between...
19:50a gardener and a man who had lost his dog.
19:55And that is all I had.
19:58Did you have any allegations or any offence to your knowledge?
20:01I had an allegation that the gardener had threatened the dog owner with the fork.
20:06But that's all I had.
20:09Do you think there was any offence there?
20:12Under those circumstances, no, Sergeant.
20:15Let's ask your colleagues then, who had the benefit of seeing all the action.
20:18What do you think, Mr Sutherland?
20:21I would have done the same thing.
20:24I didn't really think it was serious enough, the threat with the fork.
20:27It could happen any time, as far as I'm concerned.
20:30I would have done the same thing.
20:33It could happen any time, as far as I'm concerned.
20:36I would have gone for the initial thing of the missing dog.
20:41Are we concerned with missing dogs?
20:44Well, yes, Sergeant, we are concerned with them.
20:47We're concerned with stray dogs. I'm not sure that we're concerned with missing dogs.
20:50I wasn't going for a missing dog.
20:53What I wanted to do was separate the pair of them before it blew up into something else.
20:56Certainly it's a case where you would need to separate, certainly.
21:00I would want to prevent any possible further offences happening whilst you were present.
21:09Now that is an elbow lock.
21:12Whether or not you can see it now, his elbow is locked, isn't it, Mr Tilly?
21:15Whether or not you can see it now, his elbow is locked, isn't it, Mr Tilly?
21:18Yes, it is.
21:21Take hold. Twist his hand. Fingers on the tricep there.
21:24Continue to twist that arm and put it over there,
21:27inside the crook of your left arm.
21:30Tight grip before we go.
21:33Pick him up.
21:36Palm on the front of his shoulder there.
21:39Right, up you get. On your feet.
21:42The harder you push him to you, the more it hurts.
21:48Right, take your knife.
21:51In pairs. Practice.
21:57Right.
22:00Right.
22:03Oh dear, what will happen if you have to defend yourself
22:06and you haven't got a radio?
22:09You'll be in trouble if you can't get 20 people to help you, won't you?
22:12Push down. There.
22:15There. Well, bend it. Put it through there then.
22:18Bend his arm. He doesn't mind.
22:21He's going to do it to you in a minute.
22:24Get on your knees.
22:27Good. Now stand square onto his body.
22:30Get your fingers over there, like that.
22:33Get it in there. Let go of him.
22:36You don't need that. That's for your personal radio.
22:39You will find that you should have one hand free.
22:42And he should tap on the floor when it hurts.
22:45Keep his arm bent. Don't allow it to straighten.
22:48Right, induce some pain.
22:51Lift it.
22:54My face.
22:57It's OK there.
23:03Now, we will pick up our prisoner.
23:06Put your palm under the front of the shoulder
23:09and tell him to stand on his feet
23:12and keep administering the pain.
23:15It is a very important step before you arrest anybody.
23:18Not one to be taken lightly.
23:21It will cause you lots of problems
23:24in your police service.
23:27So make sure that you have the grounds for arresting someone
23:30and that it is necessary to arrest them.
23:39Right.
23:43Right.
23:46You will find that when you deal with general people
23:49if you deal with working-class people
23:52and people who are generally found about
23:55they do not mind
23:58all that much being arrested.
24:01They seem to accept
24:04that if they do something wrong
24:07they are liable to end up back at the police station.
24:10However, certain classes of people
24:13and certain races
24:16coloured people for instance
24:19take an instant dislike to being arrested.
24:22I don't know why, but when you try and arrest someone coloured
24:25they go mad.
24:28They resent it. More so than the English person.
24:31People who are wealthy
24:34sometimes take offence to being arrested.
24:37People who are at the other end of the scale
24:40sometimes take offence to being arrested.
24:43People who are poor take offence to being arrested.
24:46So we've got to make sure
24:49that we know exactly what we are doing
24:52or else we will be in it up to them.
24:55Or deeper.
25:02I'm pulling into the side here please, sir.
25:05I'm pulling into the side here, please.
25:12That's fine there, sir.
25:15I'm switching off the engine, please.
25:18I can't hear you. The engine's ready, mate.
25:21Switch off your engine, please, sir.
25:29Is it that one?
25:32Oh, yeah.
25:35Would you mind getting out, please, sir?
25:38Would you get out, please?
25:41I've got some questions to ask you, sir.
25:44Would you mind getting out, please, sir?
25:47It's raining, mate.
25:50Would you mind getting out, please?
25:53Can you stay around that side of the car, please, sir?
25:56I don't need you.
26:00I just want to speak to the driver of the car, please.
26:03Is this your car, sir?
26:06It is your car. Have you got proof of ownership?
26:09Do you have a driving licence?
26:12No, I haven't got it here.
26:15How about registration documents?
26:18Yeah, it's on the window, mate.
26:21Is that what you want?
26:24The jack's fallen off again.
26:27I've got one. It's in the post, mate.
26:30It's in the post, is it, sir?
26:33Could you tell the registrar it's in the post?
26:36Yes, mate, yeah.
26:39It's got an E.
26:42NHV-126.
26:45It had an E on it.
26:48You have no proof of ownership of this car?
26:51Not with me, no.
26:54Do you know what's in the boot, sir?
26:57Yes, mate.
27:00Could you tell me what's in the boot?
27:03Not a lot.
27:06Run, Eli, run!
27:09Eli!
27:12Hey, what are you doing with my mate?
27:15Get off!
27:18That's my brother!
27:21That's my brother!
27:24That's my brother!
27:27Leave him here. You're breaking his arm, officer.
27:30Police brutality.
27:33This man is under arrest for the theft of that car, sir.
27:36He never stole that car.
27:39No, mate. You can't prove anything.
27:42You're saying he nicked it?
27:45I am, sir.
27:48Tell him, Eli.
27:51I'm arresting this man, whether he's your friend or not.
27:54He's my brother.
27:57Go and get the family, Eli.
28:00My brothers will be down and out of you, Ginger.
28:03My brothers will be down and out of you, Ginger.
28:06Go and get the lads, Eli.
28:09I'm complaining about you, 1765.
28:12Go on, Eli.
28:16You're watching it. I can feel it.
28:19I wish I had my camera with me.
28:22They're not here.
28:25You're assaulting him?
28:28Unnecessary violence, that is.
28:31You've arrived on the scene in a police car, Mr Morgan.
28:34You've just happened to come along at the right time.
28:37Here's another one.
28:40That's for you, sir.
28:43I'm having my sister on to you, mate.
28:46Did you know this car was stolen, sir?
28:49It's my brother. It's not stolen.
28:52What's going on?
28:55Thank you, actors.
29:04In relation to his practical action
29:07after he got the vehicle stopped
29:10and he'd allowed them to move it again
29:13to the side of the road, didn't he?
29:16In the circumstances, if he did think
29:19that the vehicle had been taken without consent,
29:22do you think that was a good idea?
29:25No, because they could have just driven away
29:28and he wasn't in a position to stop them at the time.
29:31That's a very good point.
29:34If you do think that's what's happening,
29:37what's the first thing they're going to do
29:40if they've been stopped and they think that you suspect them?
29:43They're going to be in gear, foot down and away
29:46and you're going to be left standing there
29:49with the exhaust still around you, aren't you?
29:52As soon as you've stopped it,
29:55you want to take control of that by stopping the vehicle
29:58and doing what, as opposed to what PC Mitchellmore did do?
30:01What did he allow to happen?
30:04Go on, Mr Lofty.
30:07Should have left the people in the car.
30:10Because they are secure there, aren't they?
30:13They're not going anywhere. You can control them.
30:16One thing you ought to do fairly early on was what?
30:19To enable them not to do something.
30:22Take the ignition keys.
30:25Take the ignition key, straight in, door open,
30:28out with the key, because then they cannot do anything at all.
30:32When you've got two blokes like that,
30:35you're talking to one
30:38with foresight to arresting him.
30:41What are you going to do about the other chap if you're by yourself?
30:44When you've got hold of the bloke, it's hard to radio.
30:47As soon as you start getting your radio up,
30:50you've only got one hand on him, therefore you're not going to do much.
30:53That's why they're safer in the car.
30:56Safer in the car to start with whilst you've got suspicions.
30:59You're hands free then, you're outside,
31:02you've certainly got one if any move goes,
31:05you've got them trapped, you can lean against the door on your side,
31:08you can use your radio to get some assistance down there.
31:11If they see that you're being positive,
31:14they're not going to do very much.
31:17If they see that you're taking a weak attitude,
31:20they're going to be aware of that right away.
31:23Well, we run into a pretty busy place and you'll get well stuck in.
31:26We're on nights next week and I promise you some fun on that.
31:29You'll get out in the transit van
31:32or whatever patrols you get out with, you'll get something.
31:35That's all it's a process about anyway.
31:38And you'll soon get into the swing of it.
31:41The main thing is to get it right from the start
31:44and plan out your work in advance so that you don't take on more than you can cope with.
31:47But if you've got any problems that your PC that you're with can't help you with,
31:50then come and see me.
31:53I'm always in here, I'm doing this permanently.
31:56And I don't profess to know it all.
31:59I don't profess to know it all, but anything I don't know, then I'll find out.
32:02So I'll give you the true answer on it anyway.
32:05OK.
32:11Turn left there and at the junction at the end of that,
32:14you'll see the back centre.
32:17It's in the back centre.
32:20That's what you find you're doing on foot patrol.
32:23You find your general walking information bureau.
32:26That's why I've got to pick up an index map.
32:29Pardon?
32:32That's why I'll have to find an index map of this place.
32:35Well, I'll probably get to know it over the next four weeks, fairly well.
32:39Which road's this? It's this station, right?
32:42Yes, we go through Friars Walk.
32:45You're lucky, it might be your first shoplifter.
32:48Yeah.
32:51Then there's just this sort of amateur, the housewife,
32:54taking bits and pieces and things like that.
32:57And then you've got a shoplifter.
33:00And then you've got a shoplifter.
33:03And then you've got a shoplifter.
33:06You've got bits and pieces and things like that.
33:11Mmm.
33:14But you very rarely, when you actually catch them,
33:17you know, if you think of it,
33:20you know, they'll try and tell you it's the first time they've done it.
33:23But very rarely, you know, you've got to be one case in a thousand
33:26to be caught for the first time.
33:36You know, you get some very sad cases. I had one recently, and, you know, it's a girl having
33:44a mental breakdown and everything like that, and you really feel like letting them off,
33:47if it was possible, you know, but it's not very often that you really feel sorry for
33:51them.
33:52They always have some story lined up like that, don't they?
33:53Yes, yeah, and you believe one or two.
33:54Could be the truth, you know, really, couldn't they?
33:55Well, I don't know, you find the more time you get in, you get so many of these stories
34:07that you become immune to them in the end, really.
34:08Which is this one? Is this Forestry?
34:09This is Friar Street now, it's Sainsbury's, this time of year there's quite a few shop
34:30lists, it's called, mainly drink.
34:31Nice people, aren't they?
34:32Yeah, very.
34:33Actually, I recognise their horrible looking bit in the...
34:40Jeans?
34:41No, the jacket, yeah.
34:42The green jacket?
34:43Yeah.
34:44I'm surprised, I'm sure they're a bit drunk.
34:45Yeah, this is always fatal for foot patrol, walk past marks and have a shoplifter wheeled
34:57out in front of you. They're highly efficient, they're store detectives.
35:03How many have they got in there?
35:06They've got a few.
35:09Security people have got a system of cameras.
35:16Lovely.
35:27The bloke with the beard is a villain, out on bail at the moment, just gone past.
35:31Is he?
35:32Yeah.
35:33What's his name?
35:34Oh, I can't remember what his name is, you just remember the face, isn't it?
35:37Is this a trench toy shop, which way is it?
35:39Yes, it's...
35:40Down the line.
35:41Go to the left up there, it's right at the top of that section.
35:43Oh, is it on the floor?
35:44Yeah.
35:47There we are.
35:48Yeah, roger.
36:02OK.
36:11Different undertakers do different things, some of them we have to take the personal
36:15effects from the person as well, like the rings off the fingers, which is a bit...
36:20Yeah.
36:21Bortons will take them off for you.
36:23Yeah.
36:24And some of them, they're taking down their mulch room, we have to take everything off,
36:27all the clothing.
36:29Don't sound too nice.
36:31Well, when you die, all your muscles relax.
36:35Yes.
36:36So you can imagine.
36:39Yeah.
36:41What will they do?
36:43Did you say they haven't got a certificate?
36:45The doctor certifies death, which of course is easy, because they just say the heart stopped
36:50beating and there's nothing...
36:52Yeah.
36:53But as far as actual cause of death, that's what they have to write on the certificate,
36:57is the cause of death.
36:58If it's not their usual doctor, then of course they can't certify the cause of death, so
37:05in which case we have to come in.
37:07Yeah.
37:11That's not expected.
37:12The death.
37:13Oh, the death.
37:14You mean if he would have been in hospital?
37:16You mean?
37:17No.
37:18It would have been expected.
37:19No, no, it's just that they'll adopt a different attitude, hopefully, towards breaking the
37:25news to him.
37:26Yeah.
37:27If you're right.
37:28Oh, I see, that's given to the...
37:29Yeah.
37:30If you can get Hastings' phone number and phone them up.
37:34Yeah, and phone them up.
37:37Can I just dictate this to Hastings, please?
37:40Yeah.
37:41This is WPC Dancy from Reading Police Station.
37:45I've got a message that I'd like to give to your station DO or somebody.
37:49Can you put me through to someone?
37:53Yes, please.
37:55We've got a message of a sudden death and we wondered if one of your officers would
38:01go round and see the person.
38:03All right.
38:05Great.
38:08Now then, you've just commenced on the subdivision, is that right?
38:12Yes.
38:13You were in the cadets before.
38:14Yes.
38:15Just a couple of things that I want to get over to you.
38:19I think the job is that much more difficult for a woman than it is for a man.
38:25But having said that, I also believe that in many aspects of the work, the policewomen
38:31generally are better than their male colleagues.
38:35They are certainly on the paperwork side, that seems to be so.
38:40On general enquiries that they do, on the enquiries section that we've got here,
38:45I think they're better than the men.
38:49And I shall, for that reason, use them whenever I can on that particular type of job.
38:56But it is a difficult job, it's a hard job.
38:59You certainly see the harsher side of life.
39:03This is it.
39:24Jim.
39:25Hello.
39:26You've got somebody that we should see.
39:29We should see.
39:30She's been doing nothing particular though.
39:34No, no, she's upsetting the other public as well.
39:37Yeah, we'd like her to leave.
39:39Yes, please, yeah.
39:40Or take her somewhere where she's...
39:45Oh, I think that's Nina.
39:49Hello there, love.
39:51Hello.
39:52What's the problem then?
39:55I can't get in.
39:57Where's that? Where do you live then?
39:59Spay Row.
40:01Spay Row?
40:03Why won't she let you in then?
40:06Because I come back too early.
40:09What, she only lets you in at certain times of the day, does she?
40:12Yeah.
40:13What time's that then?
40:16I come back past twelve.
40:18What's the time?
40:21I come back past twelve.
40:23What's that for?
40:24Well, it's nearly that now, isn't it?
40:26Well, it's gone past twelve now.
40:28Is it dinner time yet?
40:30Yeah, it's time.
40:31Is it yours to be making your way to Spay Row?
40:33Yeah.
40:34Go on then.
40:35We'll see you out.
40:43You've got anything with your address on it?
40:45No.
40:46No?
40:47OK, we'll see you out.
40:51I don't know where my address is.
40:54Please tell me where it is.
41:02Rosamund Ursula Allen.
41:04Pardon?
41:05Rosamund Ursula Allen.
41:07Is it?
41:08Mm.
41:09Rosamund Ursula?
41:11What's your date of birth?
41:13Third of April.
41:14It's a rude question, isn't it?
41:15Third of April.
41:16Mm.
41:21What year was that then?
41:241952.
41:26Was it?
41:27Good grief.
41:28It doesn't seem that long ago.
41:30OK, then.
41:31We'll see you out, OK?
41:33You're taking me home now, are you?
41:35Well, we'll see you outside.
41:37Go on then.
41:51So it's Rosamund Ursula, is it?
41:53OK.
41:54You wait here.
41:55I'll tell you where you want to go.
41:57Sorry, what?
41:58Where do you want to go?
42:001-0, over.
42:03You're OK?
42:04Yeah.
42:05Check the collator, please, over.
42:07Roger.
42:08Make one.
42:10Collator.
42:11Collator, over.
42:14Go ahead.
42:15Yeah, 1-0 to collator.
42:16Could I have a personal check, please?
42:18Female.
42:19The surname is Alan.
42:21A-double-L-E-N.
42:23Christian name's Rosamund Ursula.
42:27Roger, I'll take it.
42:28The missing person enquiries will be left for later.
42:30Yeah, won't be long.
42:35Oh, Mummy.
42:37Oh, Mummy.
42:38Oh, Mummy.
42:39Oh, Mummy.
42:40Oh, Mummy.
42:41Oh, Mummy.
42:42Oh, Mummy.
42:43Oh, Mummy.
42:44Mummy.
42:45Mum.
42:47Mum.
42:49I wanna go home.
42:51That's right, you can go home, my love.
42:53I wanna go home now.
42:55Pardon?
42:56I wanna go home now.
42:58You make your way home.
42:59How do you go home?
43:00Bus?
43:01No, by your car.
43:02We haven't got a car.
43:05No thread?
43:06No, we haven't.
43:10You know where to catch a bus, don't you, love?
43:12You know where to catch a bus, don't you, love?
43:17A bus?
43:18Yeah, well, you can get a bus. Do you know where the bus stop is?
43:21We can show you where the bus stop is.
43:24Do you know where it is?
43:26You go and get a bus home now, then.
43:30If I can get in.
43:31Pardon?
43:32If I can get in!
43:34All right, then you go on your way, then. OK?
43:39All right?
43:41Bye.
43:46Do you?
43:47Kit, her name is. She lives in Devo.
43:49Does she? Kit Downland, is it?
43:52I'm not sure of her surname, but she's had brain damage.
43:55She was run over. Was she? A while back.
43:57Is she capable of getting herself home?
43:59She knows the way home, yeah. She will get herself home.
44:02She might cause some problems, but she knows the way home.
44:04Yeah, now she's OK. She knows where she's supposed to catch.
44:07But she's not sort of dangerous?
44:08She doesn't run in the road or anything like that?
44:10No, no, no.
44:11OK, then.
44:12She just makes a fool of herself quite often.
44:14Yeah, it's unfortunate, isn't it? Thank you.
44:22I think she's all right, better without us.
44:30Unfortunately, she's just a bit of a nuisance, isn't she, really?
44:33People like that.
44:35The security in the library upsets them a bit.
44:38She didn't seem to be doing any harm, personally.
44:41All she wanted was a seat in the warm, wasn't it?
44:47Unfortunately, under the system at the moment,
44:49there's nothing you can do with them.
44:51You know, the mental hospitals are full, so they don't want them.
44:54Yeah.
44:55It's just nothing.
44:56So they're just getting turned out?
44:58Well, they do.
44:59There's more mentally ill people walking the streets at the moment.
45:03You'll find that on nights, because an awful lot of them have got...
45:06You know, they're homeless as well,
45:08and you'll always see them wandering about the town late at night.
45:33.
