Getting Nervous

Mr Bill is starting to get a bit nervous now - how much joshing is there going to be and how much of the pre-reading pack will they expect him to have learned?
The children want to see all the kit he is going to have - but I don't suppose you get all the stuff you are going to use catching criminals on day 1 - I'm assuming it is just the uniform.
We watched "Hot Fuzz" yesterday (it finally arrived - thanks Play.com) It was so funny - I think there will be more things to spot on a second viewing. I listened to an interview with Simon Pegg and he said there are lines from films in it for those into that kind of thing.
We have been watching some of the reality Police programmes to see real Police officers but we also watched 'Holby Blue' a few times to see if we can identify ranks epaulettes and wonder just how inaccurate the portrayal is! I do like the custody Sergeant in it fair but funny. I kind of wonder if 'The Thin Blue Line' is that kind of copper. He writes a great blog:

Police Camera Paperwork

... that is the other thing we've been doing - reading some of the warts and all police blogs.
