    "Coppers" last night

    I'm normally a big fan of the police - my old man was a serving copper for 35 years and went through some pretty heavy stuff before he moved into Scenes of Crime later in his career.

    Last night's Coppers show confused me though....

    The officers in Wakefield were constantly arresting local ruffians for swearing in the street. The officers then used exactly the same language during the arrest (efffing d**k heads, suck my c**k etc etc).

    Do they then have to arrest each other for Section 5?

    What is it with Northern towns like Wakefield, Newcastle etc that nightlife has to be so 'gutter'. It's like Chav heaven. Short skirts, muscled geezers in t's, glitter on faces, stiletto shoes, puking in the street!

    Only seems to happen North of the M25.
    What happens in General, stays in General.
    You know what they say about assumptions!

        That's because most coppers are hypocrites and bullies. Combined with a low IQ and a propensity for petty lawbreaking themselves, it's a dangerous combination.

          I dunno about that, but I will always remember my mothers two constant pieces of advice:

          1. Don't marry a policeman, he'll beat you. They all do. (her words, not mine)

          2. Do marry an ugly man, he will always be grateful you married him.

              So who did you end up with?

                If the anecdotes around here are true, your mother was right.

                  I listened to her advice and went with an ugly one. She was wrong though unfortunately.

                    Can't comment on 1. beyond the fact that my youngest brother is a copper and he's more likely to get a clip than she is

                    As for number 2...
