Boys Behaving Badly Senior Constable Josh Streeter heads up the City Safe Patrol as they try to keep a lid on the weekend party action in downtown Mitchell St. They quickly lay eyes on two young blokes who are throwing punches at the nightclub bouncers. As Josh investigates further, he soon discovers this hot-headed Aussie and his fiery French friend will not be going quietly. Planes, Cops & Cannabis It’s a nerve-wracking stake-out as Detective A/Sergeant Kenny Bradshaw and Senior Constable Tim Hatton wait patiently at Katherine Airport – set to swoop on suspected remote community drug runners who are flying out of the town in a matter of minutes. When the POI’s finally arrive, Leo the sniffer dog is put to work in an attempt to stop these suspected dealers dead in their tracks. The Butt Naked Spitter Senior Constable Sean Stanley and Probationary Constable Warrick Baldwin are enjoying a typical night shift when they are called to a bizarre road accident involving a particularly aggressive, highly intoxicated and completely nude driver.

Probie’s Big Day Out Probationary Constable Warrick Baldwin is fresh out of police college and learning the ropes from Senior Constable Sean Stanley. It’s a day of firsts for the young officer as the pair are called to a major peak hour road accident, before heading to Buffalo Creek to uphold fishing regulations, and racing off to investigate a report of a wild crocodile that has made its way onto the Stuart highway. Paranoid Pot Smoker Constables Terry Fowler and Daniel Keelan hit the sirens and lights as they respond to an urgent call from a terrified man claiming an intruder is in his house. When they arrive at the scene, the discovery of a backyard hydroponic system suggests this ‘intruder’ is actually a figment of the man’s marijuana-fuelled imagination - and now he’s really in trouble. Stabbed in the Street Constables Terry Fowler and Daniel Keelan are only just back on the road when they get a call about a man who has been stabbed in the leg with none other than a butter knife. Despite the seemingly trivial size of the weapon, the man’s femoral artery has been ruptured and it’s a race against time to get him to the hospital before he bleeds to death. Hammered on Mitchell St It’s Friday night and Senior Constable Tammy Watson and Constable Shaun Hill are keeping the peace on Darwin’s infamous Mitchell St. Their night gets interesting when they get a call about a man randomly attacking another man with a highly unusual weapon - a hammer. But despite the intervention of the police, the aggrieved victim isn’t about to take things lying down and the two blokes get fired up all over again.

One of the men is armed with a machete, so Chook and Nadine must put their foot down to get to the scene fast - and before anyone loses an arm. First Big Crash It’s a harrowing night for Probationary Constable Gemma Thorpe as she attends her first major road accident alongside partner Constable Walter Todd. As the officers arrive at the scene, it is clear that two of the car’s passengers have been seriously injured while another is in a critical condition, unable to be removed from the severely damaged vehicle. Melbourne Cup Ends Ugly It’s Melbourne Cup Day in Darwin and Senior Constables Josh Streeter and Mark Nancarrow are keeping an eye on the alcohol-fuelled celebrations. The day seems to go smoothly, but once the race is over, the real work begins. From speeding and drunk drivers to rowdy revellers who just don’t want to head home; it’s a long and exhausting day for the NT coppers.

City Safe Damage Control Constables Rebecca Hockey and Josh Cameron are having a busy night pulling Mitchell St’s rowdy revellers into line. First up, it’s a case of ‘trouble in paradise’ as they sort out a couple in the middle of a Mexican standoff. Then it’s dealing with a particularly energetic young lady who has decided it is a clever idea to jump on the bonnet of a parked car. Finally, they give a much needed wake-up call to a young man who has passed out on a public lawn. It’s all in a nights work for these City Safe coppers. A Cup of Tea Too Far Substance Abuse Intelligence Desk (SAID) Detective Kenny Bradshaw heads up two teams in a large-scale operation intended to crack down on illegal drug trafficking out of Darwin Airport. Senior Constable Tim Hatton and his sniffer dog Leo search the passengers while Senior Constable Peter Henwood and his dog Archie sniff out any potential trouble hidden in their luggage. The detectives quickly come across several startling discoveries, including one very unusual box of tea bags. The Superintendent Superintendent Kris Evans takes us through the wide and varied responsibilities involved with leading Darwin’s Metropolitan Division. It’s easy to see why he is still so passionate about police work. Armed and Dangerous Constable Sean ‘Wombat’ Holmes and Constable Doug ‘Dougie’ Roberts investigate the disturbing case involving a man who has viciously assaulted his wife and almost destroyed her car with a crow bar. It’s the highest of priorities for the officers to track the man down fast before he does any more harm to himself or his family.

Cabbie Charmer Constable Jen Young follows up an urgent call about a cab driver who has been spontaneously attacked by a young female passenger. After grabbing the cabbie around the neck while he was driving at a high speed, the girl has run off with his wallet and ID. Jen tracks down the aggressive lady who is playing possum in the grounds of a nearby school. But getting this feral female into the cage really tests the young copper’s mettle as she proves to have more than one trick up her sleeve. The Hero and the Hoon Senior Constable Frank Craig takes the lead on a case that he takes very seriously – tracking down a dangerous hoon driver who police have been made aware of through several complaints of public burn outs and speeding. The young hoon is in for a nasty surprise. Blast from the Past Constables Mark Derkson and Luke McIntosh are called to an unusual job that comes about all too often. A man digging trenches in Darwin’s Fannie Bay Park has stumbled upon an unexploded hand grenade circa WWII. Mark and Luke must assess the situation with caution and secure the area before calling in the military bomb squad to assess the danger. Pursuit & Crash Sergeant Amee Meredith is travelling solo in her patrol car when she spots a suspicious vehicle and attempts to pull it over. Just as she gets the car to stop, the driver speeds off again, starting a mad pursuit that eventually comes crashing to a halt.

Love Struck Thief Senior Sergeant Andrew Heath and Senior Constable Tammy Watson are casting a keen eye over Mitchell St in their weekend City Safe Patrol. They are soon called to the aid of a young damsel in distress who suspects her persistent ex-boyfriend has stolen both her phone and handbag. As Andrew and Tammy track down the ex, it’s obvious he’s not happy about the break up, and his relationship status isn’t the only thing he’s lying about. The Real Seachange Constable Sean Holmes explains the origins of his somewhat unusual nickname ‘Wombat’. He reveals the motivation behind his significant career change from Melbourne Casino Manager to Northern Territory Police Officer and his perilously close encounter with the local wildlife. A Hot Pursuit Turns Personal Sergeant Amee Meredith and Constable Doug Roberts play a game of cat and mouse as they pursue a dangerously drunk driver who is speeding through the suburbs at night without any headlights. When they finally bring the driver to a standstill, things get personal as the man begins to make a series of bizarre drunken comments about Amee’s mum. Prison Pot Bust Constables Sean Holmes aka ‘Wombat’ and Terry Fowler aka ‘Chook’ are called to Darwin prison to check out the case of a possible drug smuggler who has been caught redhanded bringing a bag of cannabis and a bong into the prison car park.

Airport Drug Op Detective A/Sergeant Kenny Bradshaw is running a major, weeklong drug operation at Darwin Airport that he hopes will put a serious dent in the Darwin drug trade. Enlisting the help of three of the Territory’s best dog handlers and their canine counterparts, it is sure to be a week full of nasty surprises. The Mounties on Mitchell St They’re the smallest mounted police unit in the entire country, but Senior Constable Courtney McCartney, Constable Kelly-Mae Walters and Constable Tanith Blair can’t see themselves doing anything else. These three female police officers who patrol Darwin in the saddle show us the up side of having a 500kg animal on their side.

For Probationary Constable Warwick Baldwin and Senior Constable Sean Stanley, it means that business on the street is about to pick up.

Fishy Drivers Constables Sean ‘Wombat’ Holmes and Luke McIntosh are on their regular night patrol when they notice a car driving without lights on. As they move to follow the vehicle, the driver races off at top speed. It’s a dangerous race to catch the driver, who clearly has something to hide - and it’s not just the old fish in his boot. A Race Against Time It’s a desperate race to save a life when Sergeant Amee Meredith comes across a woman staggering along the side of the road late at night. As the woman collapses in front of her, Amee discovers an empty bottle of sleeping pills and a ‘sorry’ note that quickly suggests this is not a run-of-the-mill case of intoxication. Hells Angels Sergeant Sean Patterson and Senior Constable Josh Streeter are on their regular weekend City Safe patrol. Word is some notorious bikie gang members are in town. Sean and Josh soon track them down to a pub where one well-built punter has decided to try and take them on, all by himself. Talking the foolhardy big bloke down, takes all of Josh’s powers of persuasion.

Highway Lockdown A massive contingent of police officers roll out across the Territory in Operation Shiloh – kicking off with a major highway lockdown to crack down on any possible offenders they come across on the road. Day one of the operation starts out in Alice Springs and covers all highways in and out of town from Uluru to Hermannsburg. Day two sees a special tactical team bust down the door of a big time dealer. From unregistered vehicles to illegal alcohol stashes and one larger-than-life drug bust – when working together, these tough NT coppers don’t miss a beat. Kelpie Call Out Senior Constable Frank Craig and Constable David Gregory are gearing up for their day shift out of Palmerston Police Station. They begin patrolling the highway when they spot a postie who has stumbled upon a couple of farm dogs who appear to have gone walkabouts for the day. It’s all hands on deck to get the curious kelpies in custody before they cause an accident. Friday on the Frontline It’s Friday night in Darwin and the police have joined forces in a coordinated effort to crack down on a problem that occurs in every major city around the country – alcohol-fuelled violence and anti-social behaviour.

With a fair few ‘cheeky chaps’ around, these coppers are prepared to tackle anything and everything. Peak Hour T-bone It’s Friday afternoon and Shift Supervisor Amee Meredith is looking forward to the weekend when she gets a call about a major traffic accident involving a government vehicle. It’s happened just before knock-off time in Darwin city, and the scene isn’t pretty. But unlike most car crash cases, the two drivers know each other; in fact they met for the first time that very morning. Just a Little Bit of History Repeating It’s a quiet Sunday morning for NT police in Nightcliff but little do they know this beachside suburb could be blown off the map in a matter of seconds. Sergeant Steve Wedding and Constable Dennis Hogan answer an urgent call from a groundsman who has made the shocking discovery of what appears to be an unexploded WWII bomb. It’s an anxious wait as army personnel are brought in to assess the situation. Barramundi Bonding Constable Sean Stanley and Probationary Constable Warrick Baldwin both share a love for fishing. Today they’re out on a search for some of the best mud crabs and barramundi that Darwin’s waterways have to offer. Taking particular care when it comes to fishing regulations, these coppers show that they know exactly what they’re doing both in and out of the water. Closing Time Curse Sergeant Bernard Marsh takes charge of closing time on Mitchell Street, as he and the other City Safe officers try to ensure all the punters head home safely. It’s a job Bernard knows all too well, but one that continues to provide plenty of surprises and laughs, for police and punters alike. It’s nights like tonight that give a whole new meaning to the notion of street entertainment, Darwin style. But
