    I'm waving to you and our chums, Neil. I am praying for a full recovery for beautiful Princess Catherine and King Charles. Be careful and stay safe. After your long hard day of work, go home, take off your shoes, put your feet up, and have a cup of tea.

As a police woman in the 70s and 80s in the Met it was difficult with some of the older men to be accepted, but there were things the men couldn’t do without us!

    Only just got round to watching this, so many stars of stage and screen it was fascinating to go back to an earlier more simple age in many ways. Police actually had a positive influence on many lives. It is a little gem. Things that are well acted and well scripted you get lost in and don't even realise it's not colour. Thank you I really enjoyed that .
