Cops Like Us
3 x 60 series 9pm BBC Two
SERIES PRODUCER/DIRECTOR
A police series with a difference, featuring the police as key characters rather the crimes, this ‘brutally honest’ observational series looked at the impact of austerity on the police – and how this has affected the town in which they police.
I shot, produced and directed on location whilst running the team. I then saw the programmes through the edit to delivery.

‘The team quickly became embedded in the organisation, building strong and trusting relationships with the policing team…this translated into a powerful series which shone a light on the complex and demanding reality of modern day policing and the impact it has o the people behind the badge.’
– Staffordshire Police Chief Constable Gareth Morgan
