Sky Cops - Season 2

Following the work of Britain's helicopter police. With 15 million pounds' worth of new helicopters to help them fight crime in the capital, the sky cops are casting their net wider than ever. Their targets include a crossbow-wielding man and a 14-year-old boy who is living dangerously.

As twelve wannabes compete for two vacancies in the unit, the rookies from Hendon take part in a raid on a suspected drug dealer. Also, a newly qualified cop gets an early collar when he apprehends a crook.

The pressure is on for five young police officers vying to fill two vacant positions with the sky cops.

As the hopefuls take to the skies for the first time, the veterans in the unit decide to shake things up a bit. For PC Bearman things end in tears, and PC Brandon regrets letting slip that he hates flying.

The helicopter squad are called in by police in South London tackling street robbers who use scooters to get away from police cars. In a combined operation the helicopters and ground cops work together to try and trap the perpetrators.

But they must also deal with another conflict, as hundreds of protestors opposed to the war in Iraq threaten to break the law by marching on Parliament.

The Sky Cops get help from their four-legged friends as together they catch criminals who try to hide from the police. With India 99 above using their thermal image camera and the dogs below sniffing them out, there is no cover even in the darkness.

Back at the Sky Cops' base, the dogs from the Metropolitian Police specialist arms dogs unit are training with PC Pat Agnew so they can use the new helicopters to get to where they are most needed more quickly.

But all is not well for one of the dogs, and his fear of flying leaves its mark on the crew.

The team investigates a firearms-related tip-off. With no way of telling whether the guns are loaded or even real, the Sky Cops are in charge of directing Trojan units into a pitch black garden in North London while children play a few houses away.

In East London the local cops have a strange case on their hands - someone has been shooting deer in a local park with a hire powered rifle.
