- A photographic audit of Cheshire Constabulary HQ in Winsford, Cheshire. One cop knew the score, one kept his mouth shut, and the other needs a little encouragement to update his training regularly. Camera paranoia at its most crippling...
Only 26k subscribers! How? If AB has 100k+ you are miles ahead of them all, in the way you edit, the wat you talk ie calmly, your knowledge of the law and how you keep them on point. Superbly done! 👏
It's quality over quantity that counts , FP is premiere league where AB is Sunday League at very best
Agreed 👍 I reckon if hocus pocus released more frequent videos he would be on well over 100k subs 😀
@@philliphazeldine1940 . Bit harsh on AB. He has a tactic that brings out different "qualities" in those being audited. FP is more cerebral where AB is more knockabout. In spite of that FP is the best I've seen.
lol miles above AB your off your rocker sunshine
AB is Middle Eastern so they use section 43 on him at will, it's as simple as that. Common sense really
As a photographer myself. A friend of mine - after I debated that police were surely professional smart people - told me to watch your videos and see how many of your videos I needed to watch before I would realise that Police are stupid, unprofessional and inept.. I concede it took me 3 of your videos, and now I watch them for shear fun and entertainment.. You are indeed doing an amazing civic duty by challenging these muppets in your own unique manner..
One day I was walking with a politician who was (is) reknown for his activism... he having been jailed a couple of times. I was getting a little paranoid that we would be arrested so I proposed we dodge down a side track and he turned to me and said... "never overestimate the police" and he was so right. The police stayed at the boom gate and were surprised that we had been right through the site that was supposed to have been cordoned off... we had entered the site half an hour before they came on duty.
I find it astounding that the average response time is measured i minutes, while a report of a burglary in progress takes two days, TWO BLOODY DAYS!
Its faster to bring your camera outside and record the public street than it is to call 9-9-9.
I have one ongoing in London. Organised crime, wanted for homicide. Still waiting from last week.
5 years later, that two days has become never
It's not enough to have rights...we need to exercise them.
Well done.
Of all the public photographers within this genre, This chap appears the most articulate.
Which is reflected in his sceptical humour.
A joy to watch.!!!
Only a quarter of a million views for such a great show. An eternal humour and countless chuckles. Pure gold.
"If you want to blow up shell, you let the workforce do it!" Pure Brilliance FP.
British humour and a touch of sarcasm, the best way to defeat any enemy.😂😂.
f..k em
Except it hasn't beaten the enemy, has it. The elite are laughing at us with our humour and sarcasm while they lock us down and make us wear useless masks to combat a variant of the annual flu.
@@workhorse7134 not 4 much longer i think xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Not from either place but to be honest the Aussies have me in rolling fits. Of course it depends on the culture not necessarily the country.
@@workhorse7134 🤦♂️
I really love how you present the story of the interaction with supplemental static shots and witty music. Clearly you are a master of shot composition. I imagine it takes more time to do but I must say, from the viewer's perspective, it significantly increases engagement. I hope you continue to do so.
"For what reason are you recording?" "For my own recreation." "For what reason are you recording?" "For my own recreation." "For what reason are you recording?" "For my own recreation." Well, now that we have THAT resolved, let's go on to another question. "For what reason are you recording?" LOL
Cupid stunt that copper. .
LMAO
haha
Unbelievable he answered the questions multiple times lol
😂😂😂😂
Only found out about these type of auditing videos today and I'm now obsessed. You are the best out of all the guys I've seen today. 10 hours deep so far lol
"What are you up to?"
"Bit of a clue here!"
Nearly fell of my chair laughing!
The best ones I've heard so far. What are you doing? Evidence gathering. The policeman thinks hard. Evidence gathering of what? Evidence gathering of police abusing the law.
The other, I suppose you are going to put this on youtube? Auditor: I'm tending more towards pornhub. Policewoman and the joke goes over her head.
"And I'll be watching you". Brilliant.
Officer, is that odor of marijuana coming from you? And please don't make any sudden movements.
Thank You so much for allowing all worded explanations up on the Screen long enough for me to read it all on my Cellphone. I appreciate it very much. I Love your Style... Everything is Enjoyable to watch.
God Bless you and Protect You Focus Pocus!
I miss your audits. You never cease to crack me up with your sarcasm and wit.
4 years later. Police: "in this day and age".
Long day huh.
Even now,, in this day and age 😂
Amazing how quickly it escalated: "we could take that camera" then suddenly after a few kind and wise words from yourself...they are like : "right bye".
piggies love to throw their unlawful weight about, in the hope that the person they are trying to bully and harvest information, cracks and gives in
That Plod disappeared very quickly when the other two on bikes appeared. He knows that he was on thin ice and didnt want the other po lice seeing him getting a bloody nose. He obviously is not very chummy with those two members of the Gang.
"it's not an answer"... no... it's not the answer you want... but it IS and ANSWER!!!
"if you want to blow up shell.just let the workforce do it". excellent.
😂😂
Best I've seen/heard in a long time.
The quib about Shell was excellent.
Keep up the good work Focus Pocus.
That second police officer lied. I hope it was followed up with a complaint..
Plod:How long do you intend to be here today?
FP: I don't know, I'm a spontaneous person 😂
"You can take photos all you like, no problem. I just have a problem with it "
I like the way you are so calm and relaxed with them while putting them into their place... very clever
Hi Focus Pocus. I've been watching your video's and just want to point out to other photographers on here who do "audits" that you are an example to follow of how to speak to officers, security staff even the military. You always speak calmly and respectfully whilst refusing to be intimidated. You don't belittle them by name calling or use bad language. A few other TH-camrs should learn from this instead of just wanting to antagonize and cause problems by being disrespectful to people.
100% agree…he’s brilliant at these…I can’t stop watching…I look forward to more
It's a skill. I wish I could be as eloquent and calm if I was in the same situation. He knows hls stuff, that's also key, it's a lot easier to be confident in your position when you do.
OMG I still laugh at your brilliant phone call. Just love it
Far the best and most watchable auditor look forward to next one.
11:00 that is blatant attempt at intimidation . . . . Love your shell / H&S comment lol 😂 brilliant 💥
Watching from Florida. Former Cheshire resident. These audits are a real addiction. Amazing stuff 👏
Got a bit of money then?
burglars beware from now on, these guys respond in minutes.
HA HA HA. It took them 2 days to respond to a call from 85 year old mother, when someone shattered the frame and windows in her kitchen and broke into the house. Then a further 7 days for someone to call to see if there was any evidence, by which time the evidence had been destroyed by the weather.
Thank you Surrey Police for your instant response!
Your videos, style, editing and music is generally superb. Well done fella!
When I heard the music I thought I was going to watch a video of Everton F.C
How disappointing.....LOL
I do enjoy revisiting focus pocus audits every so often, most entertaining 😂
Rozzer: you're not very forthcoming about what you're doing here
Really? Didn't see the camera? It's a device for taking pictures.
Is all you need to know, now go away and do something useful instead of
pestering a photographer.
.
Maybe investigate some grooming gangs for a change?
You can't fix stupid...
'The way things are today..' The number one blanket excuse.
This day and age it's all bullshit.
They always got to have a sound bite. It's their get out of jail free card with no explanation required.
I get it now ! They can take our registrations up to one hundred times a day as we drive around, but we can't take their's ? Good work mate, don't let them grind you down.
The last copper to speek was professional. Well done thats what we want. The officer before that i would suggest he relearns his position that we the public pay for.
TAKE A STAND how can someone spell professional but can't spell "speak"
They're all as bad as each other.
I'm old enough to remember when Cheshire Police has Morris Travellers. They were totally non-agressive, and therefore I respected them 100%. What the UK police have become today is beyond belief to me!
Police" you have to tell me your details "
You " no I dont"
Police "fair enough "
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They just lie through their teeth going your green....
FFS the way they say " no problems" when they clearly have one
timmy lumsden or, ‘Are you filming us?’. ‘That’s fine because we’re filming you’.
For fucks sake grow up!
@@DMC888 I know mate...as I said watching you...
The police really do need to learn the law...makes me worried what else does he get wrong!!
I've just come across these videos and even though it's pretty much the same each time, they are superb. Keep up the good work...unless you're outside my work otherwise I'll have the Police called out.
“The way things are today with our security state.”
2020/21 hold my beer!
@@workhorse7134 Security State Gone Police State
This aged well 😂
Someone should teach the Police the law...
You're not being very forthcoming - in other words you need to prove your innocence...
That cop has to ask you over and over and over again because he's an imbecile... and he's a liar
Could you please film in areas that never see the police like crime hotspots 😂
Like Twitter? Oh wait...the police are all over that already LOL
You'd have to have an unlimited life span ,like an immortal,to fit them all in.🙄
You Sir, are the king of auditors, you let them dig a hole for themselves then you let them have it, your videos should be used for police training on public photography, and general interaction with people.
Top class.👍👍👍
I loved the bit when the angry bike police man said that he would be watching you, and you replied with the same thing! Comedy gold!
This guy knows the law and is very funny and never insults or raises his voice. For me the best, more please👍
Please try and refrain from using long words, when you said "inference", he didn't understand what you meant 😳🙄😳
The Best Auditor by far
Found your channel today, watched several videos (great content, by the way) and now I'm subscribed. Long live the Dock-U-Mock-U-Rock-U-mentary!
Keep up the good work, stay safe and strong out here brother 💪
I love this guys videos, so calm and kinda respectful but in a sarky way
I subscribed today cos youre attitude and demeanour are awesome. I love your sense of humour too. "If you want to blow up shell, just let the workforce do it" . Its like a perfectly crafted punchline. Great stuff
"One cop knew the score, one kept his mouth shut, and the other needs a little encouragement to update his training regularly." Good audit. If a little depressing in the results.
Good video. Especially the final statement. 😂😂😂
On a serious note, well done for not giving out your name and details. You politely explained that you were there recreationally. From that point, you should really have been left alone.
For anyone who doesn't know, there are only two scenarios in which you are obliged to give your name to a cop.
1. If you're stopped while operating a motor vehicle on the highway. (Not a push bike)
2. If the officer tells you the crime that you're under suspicion of. (At this point I would also ask for the specific crime number)
In all other situations you are within your rights to decline to answer.
Always be polite, nobody likes a gobby shite.!
Loved that phone call conversation at the end, how true is that. Good work, love your style😊
Focus pocus,s calm polite approach when being quizzed by ignorant cops is his best weapon as its like a safety barrier where you refuse to be irked and start swearing or aggressive which is all on film as I've seen many small minded cops try to escalate then can make an arrest but focus nullifies that.
Superb choice of music on the intro!
Ah the Z Cars theme that brings back memories.oh dear i must be getting old
love it when you say filming is not illegal and they come out with the line "yeh I got no issues with that" which really means we got issues with that.
Full respect to you so calm and collected think you baffled them lol
Priceless and an absolute legend
you need to come to west yorkshire police mate they think the judge and juror
Ye but in America there also executioner.
Loved the opening music. I am 54 and just about remember Z Cars on TV when I was a kid. Remember the theme tune like yesterday though. Gonna look for Z Car episodes on YT now, cheers.
i actually burst out laughing when he said for recreation the 5th time.
Sorry for the late postings but I’m just now watching and enjoying your videos. More proof of No answer is good enough for them. I think what bothers them the most is they want you info sooooo bad but they know legally they can’t get it.
Who are ya, says the copper, he should have replied with I'm Ronnie Pickering.
Who's Ronnie Pickering? {:o)
Pmsl
Lol it’s like on Phoenix nights ! I KNOW WHO YOU ARE .... oooo are ya ?
Ronnie focking pickering!
Haha made my sunday morning pal...5 months after you posted lol
I have to say, before I forget, a video of yours I recently saw, had the best drone footage I have EVER SEEN! Awesome,, the one under the motorway and over the field 👍❤️
I'm begging you please don't give any clues i love when they get so confused after you tell them what you doing. "I'm doing this as a hobby" ..."ahh hmm hmm". So much fun watching them trying so hard to say something clever haha
So I love this guys content so much thats me now 5 years ago scraping for vids I've not seen yet!
Watching these guys rock up on the bikes reminds me so much of the Scotch n Wry sketches with rikki fultons inept cop, 'right scu nner oot the car' ' it doesnt say kissme quick up here'
IYKYK
When asked what you are doing try saying you are videoing the cctv cameras videoing you and can they do anything about them recording you,if they say no,then there is your answer lol
Actually, by law, you could have demanded to see his warrant card haha
And phone through to check if he's legit (turn the tables as the cop gets no ID from the photographer)
The clowns on bikes just can’t help themselves can they. Have to come and talk to you and try and control your legal activity.. keep up the great audits 👍
Take your DETAILS!!!!
UNBELIEVABLE
"You do have to tell me now?". How? Are they going to torture you to get 'the information out'?
I have not seen anyone to date who can out debate Focus on the law - he should have his own TV show
Ahh who’s old enough to remember the Z cars theme tune
Me!
@@fattmatt200 And me!!!old school black and white...Zodiacs and Zephyrs...the best
I am
Sad to say I remember Z Cars only too well lol
And me 👍🏿😀
Another Masterclass in how to deal with police who don’t know or just ignore the law. Love it FP keep it going .👍😎
I remember the programme well, from the first 2 bars of the music, “Z cars” back in the days when the police were reasonably respectful and professional. Only asked pertinent questions and only made you “fall down the stairs” if you got taken to the plod shop and either got mouthy or committed a crime against hyenas. Back in the days when the IRA were active and a camera wasn’t a lethal weapon that put the fear of shite up anybody in a uniform!
Allow me in my best attempt of the local dialect, "It's noone of your fookin' business!" Love your work man, props from Canada!
"....the way things are today, with our security state....." Yup. Security State, indeed.

God I miss your videos please make more 🙏 youre awesome mate
In this day and age...
I love your shot framing & focusing - very professional looking
I love your relaxed style yet you still make your point.Uncomfortable with the Company ringing the police with your reg: number reporting you for doing nothing wrong.Can they run your number when no crime is committed, surely some data protection rule break also are they allowed to access your phone number again for no reason other than to let you know how clever thy are. Well done, keep it up.
Why do these video's make me laugh so much? Love em!
if was the copper I would just walk away and not be baited up he is playing in to the cameraman's hands
That's why you're already overqualified for the job 😂
lol a phone call purely to let you know they know who you are and they are soooo very clever. It's just their way of attempting to make you back off from carrying out an activity they don't like. love your vids and don't ever stop holding them up to the light.
" bit of a clue here" perfect
Love the music,,laughing my nuts off, great lad keep it up,,marko from belfast,,
" If you want to blow up Shell, you just let the workforce do it, you don't need terrorism "
Haha I laughed at that quite a bit, reminds me of something Karl Pilkington would say 😂
Another wonderful presentation . . . . . . How did they obtain your personal telephone number?
Empty threat of taking away a camera. Oh security nowdays. Intresting. Are the more dangerous cameras and less dangerous ones?
@ 8:12 onwards he is WELL rattled! Just brilliant mate, brilliant!
Here's an idea to stop this sort of stuff from happening.
1. national training curriculum for security guards, in which the rights of the public are clearly explained.
2. security guards who study this curriculum and call the police because someone is taking photographs, are immediately arrested and charged with wasting police time.
3. Police officers who respond favourably to such calls from security guards, are systematically charged with misconduct in public office.
I guarantee you: this idiotic harassment of everyone with a f*****g camera would soon be a thing of the past.
The patience of a saint.
I send it to crimebodge.com because that officer said he can seize your camera without a warrant when he has no right to I would take that as a threat so I would Sue the police for that as for that police officer who phoned you how did he get your number I would block all calls from that number
Send it to this dude
@Damon Manda wrong!!!! to take it off him is a threat of violence,under common law you have the right to protect yourself,
@Damon Manda of a crime so no crime committed no evidence to seize
Not always are police calls withheld numbers. One sergeant called me threatening me wish I'd recorded call though still have his threatening text
@Damon Manda either another plod trying to take being a human being, or one of the sheeple...
Have a Google for ACO advise regarding public photography....save making an arse of yourself again...
"If you want to blow up Shell, you just let the work force do it!" Legend
nice music good work x
Keep up the good work I've been down this road & I stick to my rights to photograph ,enjoy John
