Episodes
Episode 1
In West Yorkshire, police are put on high alert when a van fails to stop following a fatal collision. A people carrier hogging the middle-lane raises the attention of a Greater Manchester officer, and a pursuit through Nottingham results in the suspect ditching his car and vaulting a six-foot fence.
Episode 2
In Nottingham, police hunt for a car-jacker, who has stolen a high value car at knife point. When they find the target vehicle a chase ensues, leading them into a congested housing estate. Officers pursue a car, that's suspected of having cloned number plates, through Manchester's back roads. Law enforcement is called to a block of flats in Bristol - they find a man wielding three kitchen knives.
Episode 3
Nottingham police attempt to chase down a runaway suspect, who has failed to stop with his girlfriend in the passenger seat. Officers pursue a high-end Porsche through Manchester, driving on wet roads at a high speed. A white van man makes his intentions clear when instead of pulling over for law enforcement, he slams his wagon into reverse and rams the patrol car.
Episode 4
Cases include the pursuit of a Jaguar thought to be connected to catalytic converter thefts, a driver going the wrong way on a motorway, and a surprisingly civilised SUV chase.
Episode 5
A teenage robber steals a car at knifepoint in broad daylight, and goes to extraordinary lengths to avoid being arrested. Plus, cameras follow a disqualified driver on the run.
Episode 6
There's a high speed clash between officers and a violent criminal who rams a police car, while a drone is deployed in an urgent manhunt in North Wales.
Episode 7
When cops spot a recently stolen car they alert traffic units to make an intercept. But the driver goes off-road through children's playing fields, putting innocent lives at risk.
Episode 8
Officers spot a car being driven recklessly. Police units from across the county race to join the pursuit, but then the driver goes head to head with a brand-new patrol car.
Episode 9
Manchester Police engage in a high-speed game of cat and mouse as a runaway suspect pulls off a succession of outrageously dangerous manoeuvres to evade capture.
