Please someone take this show off the air while the British Transport
Police still have some kind of speck of authority left. Last week show
had a police officer jump on to live train track at Cardiff station
without checking to see if a train was coming or wearing high
visbility jacket. Not to save the life of a fallen pensioner nor to
save someone trying to get their mobile phone off the track. But a
seagull with a broken wing.
Then later on you see a police officer getting rightly deserved abuse
for telling a frustrated passenger to get lost as he couldn't get a
train as there was a dead body on the track.
This week highlight is the nail in the coffin of the BTP image. A
police officer is telling off a group of kids about the dangers of
being on train track (obviously unless your resucing seagulls) at some
three trains a day station. Showing off to the cameras about how you
just need to tell kids about the dangers of train track to put them
off. And then one of the kids pushes him off the platform onto the
track
