"Would love to give this good ratings, was hoping to.. But. Opening scene was beyond stupid. The bit in the middle was daft as hell. And the less said about the ending the better. Great acting, just very poor script and the director should go back to film school.. (does a director not have any control??) Note to writer/director.. Never give that kind of daft opening if you want to be taken seriously.. Or daft ending.. Or daft middle bit......"

Although Regan and Carter are shown driving cars, the real Flying Squad have specialist drivers who only drive and who are trained to exceptional levels. The most senior officer in a car would sit in the front passenger seat, as was the case in the original TV series The Sweeney (1975), in which most of the driving was done by the "Bill the Driver" or other specialist drivers.
