    Police Academy UK

    The BBC have just started this series. It's called Police Academy UK, and it's a International Exchange where four officers from around the world and different backgrounds come to the UK to experience our style of Police work.

    Here's the link to the online viewer if anyones interested...

    BBC iPlayer - Police Academy UK: Episode 1

    British culture at it's best..... or not as the case may be.

    The BBC iPlayer is not available to people outside the U.K. (or Europe) not 100% sure the exact area. You could always try a U.K. proxy to allow you to watch it if you are outside the U.K, but that is not guaranteed to work.

    The idea of it is really cool though... do the visiting officers get paid while being there or is it a volunteer type thing?

    Yeah, the BBC doesn't like us outsiders getting to see stuff that way. I think there might be an option for outsiders to subscribe, but not 100% sure. Only reason I knew it wouldn't work is because of another forum I'm on that has members from the U.K. also.

    I presume they would still be getting paid from their own Force. Like being on leave. It's quite a contrast for some of the Officers. One is a female Officer from Samoa where the female Officers mostly do paperwork and don't get involved in anything confrontational. A stark contrast to the binge drinking garrison town of Colchester on a Friday night! The Officers are from Colombia, Zambia, Samoa and Western Australia. Next week they get to experience football hooligans at a derby match.
