Police Interceptor Reacts to Hot Fuzz

  • After last weeks reaction to Simpson's, the comments wanted one thing... Hot Fuzz. In this video, I react to some of the best scenes from Edgar Wright's cult classic giving my thoughts as an ex-Police Officer. How realistic is it? I break down some of the clips and give my thoughts, what would I have done differently to Sgt Nicholas Angel? What a film this is. What else would you like to see me react to? Let me know in the comments!

      Alex, many forces are now very accepting when it comes to neurodiverse individuals.
      Following an aneurysm I was left with epilepsy and several other conditions. When I first joined that would have more than likely seen me medically pensioned out, but not these days. There is a lot of support and encouragement for those who have conditions such as us. You're never alone.

I used to be in the army and Id meet people there who were absolutely not morbidly obese and absolutely could not sprint full tilt for 1 mile straight. Which meant they hadnt been doing theyre cardio. Besides most people engage in the same bad dieting habits as many cops, most more so.

    Fun fact about Hot Fuzz: the shop was a genuine shop, and the glass display was a real one. Very expensive to replace so to avoid damaging it and having to replace it they made the powder sparks make it look like bullet proof glass. They still ended up cracking one of the panels when they ran the trolleys into it, so ho hum.

      In the follow up all the pubs were real too (the names were changed for the filming), apart from the final one they're all in Letchworth town centre (The Worlds End pub is in Welwyn, the second garden city where the film starts off in). The disco is actually the local cinema (The Broadway) in real life and because the owners refused to give back the frontage from the movie still is as it was in the film. All the production vehicles were stored at night a couple of hundred metres from my back garden.

    The reason the deli counter glass in the supermarket does not break despite all the gunfire is because those things are actually very expensive and they did not have the budget to replace one. They got permission to shoot in a real supermarket but had to pay for any damages they caused.

    A friend of mine is a retired police officer. We went to Wells (Sandford) and toured some of the shooting locations, found the layby in the decapitation scene & my mate posed by the 'Welcome to Wells' sign with his warrant card. Pegg's signed flak jacket is on the wall of a pub. Fun trivia: the mad santa who stabs Pegg in the hand is Lord of the Rings director, Peter Jackson. Kate Blanchett is unrecognisable in the forensic kit but plays Pegg's ex. She went on to play Galadriel in LOTR. Martin Freeman of course, was Bilbo in the Hobbit. They wanted someone like ' Tim Dalton' for the main villain and as shooting approached someone apparently suggested asking him...and he said yes:).

      I wasn't based in Bradford, I was actually a member of a different force in the Yorkshire & Humber region.
      Every now and again all four forces would pool a number of their specialist resources such as Traffic, Road Crime Unit, Armed Response, Dog Section and Proactive Team etc and hit a town, city, district or county to go after high-risk offenders, people wanted on warrant, disrupt organised crime groups, proactively search for dealers, burglars and car thieves and provide a high visibility presence in the community. They're called "Impact Days".
      I had plenty of wool on my back in my home force, but this was my very first experience of operating in Bradford. It could not have been more different than were I was based at the time, and that was a rough town lol
      Every other vehicle seemed to have no insurance, loads of people gave false details or used a family member's name to try and deceive us, loads of young lads driving hig-end motors otherwise in accordance with a licence or actually disqualified, and so many (not all I must admit) had zero respect for the police or the law in general.

      @Blazcowitz1943 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      It is true that many of the jokes in the movie were taken from the stories the filmmakers heard about real events and stories concerning police, such as Nick Angel not being able to understand the local farmer but his colleagues understanding it fine.

    Cobra's not the only film with a cool supermarket action sequence. In FX2: The Deadly Art of Illusion, the main character is trapped by the baddie in a supermarket. Being a movie special effects expert, he's able to use things he finds on the shelves to improvise traps.

    Supermarkets are good for action scenes because they have lots of explodable gubbins to fill the screen. You can crash through a shelf unit and send boxes flying everywhere, or shoot down a drinks aisle and thr screen is erupting with glass and colourful fluid in blast waves.

    “I’ve never fired my gun up in the air. 1- cause I don’t have a gun & 2- I’ve never had a reason too “ and most importantly for anyone watching… “WHAT GOES UP MUST COME DOWN”. You’ve a real risk of showering a load of bullets up in the air only to get three lodged in your brain once gravity takes over.

I've seen coppers in real life, that wouldn't come close to the Hot Fuzz guys. I've got a pretty good 'winging it' radar. Respect is earned, not given 👍

    Literally just found your channel, and I'm only a few minutes into this video and you've already got my subscription.
    I don't know if you take requests for things to react to, but I'd love to see your reaction to The Usual Suspects.
    Either way though, you've got yourself a subscriber, cheers mate!
    Edit: also, in terms of it being absolute bullocks if a firearms officer fired his/her gun up in the air, just felt like I should weigh in from across the pond: it's absolute bullocks if ANYONE fires a gun into the air. Not sure if I've got all my British/Scottish slang correct there, but I do know that despite the sheer ludicrousness of firing a gun randomly into the air, it's unfortunately still common enough that it requires people to be warned about it over here. I think at least some of it is people not realizing that a 21 gun salute consists of 21 shots of blanks, no actual bullets being fired. So I think people see that, get a false sense of how harmful could it be because it's done all the time at military funerals and such, without realizing the rounds used have no bullets. That's my theory at least. That or just that people think it just sorta dissolves in the atmosphere like people seem all too often think when releasing balloons into the air (those also have to land somewhere, but because it's far away and out of sight, people don't think it's an issue). It's apparently more common around the 4th of July as well. No joke though, the whole "firing randomly into the air" thing I'm pretty sure was part of a little gun safety quiz thing I had to take before buying my pistol in California. Which, I realize is probably a somewhat strange sentence to those from other countries

    I'm a retired teacher. We had a PCSO attached to the school, so I take my form into assembly and the Headmaster (we went to school together, known him years.) introduces the PCSO as PC Nicholas Angel honest that was his name. And I'm grinning manically and the head is giving me the death stare. Then the PC does his talk and gets to the end of his presentation and I know what's coming and the Head knows whats coming and he's glaring at me again and the PC goes: 'Any questions.' I just couldn't keep a straight face.
    And the rest of the staff after were like 'What was that all about with you and the head.' And I tried to explain and none of them had seen the film.

    I always wondered If police could commandere a car belonging to a member of the general public. In the event you do have to do this. What are the regulations around it? Can you drive it like an emergency vehicle? What happens in the event of damage? Does the owner just have to stand there like a wally and wait for you to bring their motor back? 🤣🤣🤣🤣great video as always Ben 👌

    I have a question, are all British police governed by the same agency? Because as an American it seems weird to me that the London Metro Police can transfer an officer to some department in the country.
    That said, if that is the case, as a former American cop, I am a little envious, because having a central agency that handled all the hiring, firing, and payroll for all police officers, at least for the state, would solve a lot of huge social issues with American policing, where some of our bad officers can simply drift from department to department, with little accountability.

    I didn't think UK police could commandeer a car, so I nosily looked it up.
    "The police have no power to commandeer private motor cars. _They may_ *_ask_* _a driver to help them by affording transport when they are following a criminal or responding to an urgent call,_ and in the Metropolitan Police District that was done in 35 cases during the year ended 31st March last."
