The Chief is keen to make amends for a slip of the tongue and keeps digging deeper as his extended apology lasts for ever. The traffic cops make a big noise to salute the key workers, while the rural officers handle a massive marrow bust-up at the horticultural show.

Further details

This week, PC Jack McLaren and PC Sarah Fletcher tackle troublesome intruders; Sgt Ken Beattie builds a bridge over troubled waters; and DC's Squire and McGill go undercover as party bams to make a drugs bust.

Fearless beat cops, PC Jack McLaren and PC Sarah Fletcher find themselves on the hunt for office intruders. However, when PC Jack duplicates their bad behaviour on the office photocopier, he's left with a bad taste in his mouth.

Meanwhile, if crime is grime then Chief Commissioner Cameron Miekelson yields the J cloth of justice. We're in his very safe - and sanitised - hands even when he finds himself making unreserved apologies to all and sundry.

At the socially distanced Horticultural Show, country cops PC's Charlie McIntosh and Jane MacKay suspect foul play with a suspiciously weighty marrow. The policing pair make sure there's no villainous vegetable vote rigging at the village hall. Not on their watch.

While traffic cop PC Hugh McKirdy makes some unique noise for key workers, desk sergeant Karen Ann Miller silently hopes to be redeployed. With her dreams of abandoning desk duty realised, Sgt Millar finally gets to see fresh air. So there's a fresh face at the cop shop and Officer Sharon - newbie PC Sharon McKelvey - introduces herself to Bobby.
