About This Program

The programme follows a police helicopter crew as they take to the skies in pursuit of an armed robber, while fresh recruits are given the chance to apply their budding detective abilities. At the same time, a trained sniffer dog stumbles upon a noteworthy find inside a stolen vehicle, adding another layer to the episode’s action. During the aerial chase, the helicopter team tracks the armed suspect, coordinating ground units and using their specialised equipment to close in. Meanwhile, the new recruits are thrust into real‑world investigations, testing the skills they’ve just learned and proving their worth under pressure. In a separate thread, the sniffer dog, working alongside officers, uncovers something of interest within the stolen car, prompting further attention from the team. The episode weaves these three strands together, showcasing the high‑octane pursuit, the learning curve of the newcomers, and the unexpected contribution of the canine partner. Each element highlights a different facet of police work – aerial tactics, investigative training, and the utility of detection dogs – providing a concise yet varied look at law‑enforcement operations.
