The One With the Awkward Prang

Overview

Charlie and new partner Mish Ryan are out in Slough and are alerted by their ANPR to a parked up Volvo with a bit of a criminal history, so they park up and wait for someone to return to it, as they suspect that the driver may well not be properly documented. The planned stop doesn’t, however, go according to plan as the driver decides he doesn’t want a word – but, being in a cul de sac, he’s had to flee down a footpath and gets a bit of a headstart, leaving Charlie to guess where he’s gone. By chance they catch up head to head, and the Volvo reverses away from them at speed, barging backwards past anything in the way.
