This weekend, whilst enjoying a rare moment of repose on the sofa, circumstance had it that an episode of the ITV series Heartbeat appeared on the television; and having previously challenged a bottle of post dinner Pinot Grigio to a contest…and having lost, I sat back sleepily to enjoy the show. 

Watching this nostalgic vignette of times past, I couldn’t help but reflect that even right up to my own pre-teen years, this was a fairly accurate portrayal of how policemen and policing used to be; I also started wondering as to how things had got so bad now, that the opposite picture of the Police is now true.
