11.35 Scene: Young Police
'The image I got of the police was from friends and what's in the press - mostly the bad things - like they go round beating people up and harassing people in the street... and for those reasons, I'd never thought I would join the police force.' (PC Lennie Johnson, aged 21)
How do young police officers cope with that image? How do they see their relationship with the public, especially with youths? And how do they reconcile their 'community spirit' with their duty to enforce the law?
To find out, Scene followed four young police officers for a week through their training and on the beat. (e)
