CHANNEL 5 RETURN TO INSIDE THE FORCE FOR THIRD SERIES

Channel 5 have commissioned a third 12-episode series of Inside The Force 24/7 from Mentorn Media.

The series follows the different layers of policing as in-the-moment decisions are made and the police react, from the custody suite and over stretched response officers, to the force control room and the investigation teams.

Adrian Padmore, Commissioning Editor at Channel 5 and Paramount+, said: "It’s great to be back as we go ‘behind the scenes’ of a new force, Cleveland Police, as they fight crime across Middlesbrough. This no holds barred third series, exposes the very shocking realities facing police in modern Britain and the need for rapid reactions when tensions reach boiling point."

Tayte Simpson, Executive Producer, Mentorn Media, added: "This is a gritty and unflinching look at the realities of policing in an area with the highest crime rates in the country."

Mark Webster, Chief Constable at Cleveland Police, commented: "Cleveland Police is excited for the public to see the relentless hard work of our officers and staff, with the chance to demonstrate what a challenging, yet rewarding, role working in policing can be."

Inside The Force: 24/7 is available on My5.
