Blah, blah, blog.

I just caught the tag-end of one of those reality TV cop shows.
This is a British thing, broadcast by the BBC, called “Motorway Cops” and all about… well, I think you can figure that bit out for yourselves. The format is the same as most of the other shows of its ilk:

  • People get busted.
  • A voice-over, at the end of the show, tells you what happened to them.

So, I tune in just as a couple of guys get pulled over by the aforementioned motorway cops. Their car is searched and the boot [trunk] contains a large bag of what appears to be weed and several rectangular bricks all wrapped in plastic and tape (I’m thinking kilogramme blocks of hash’). A cop carefully opens the corner of one of the bricks to reveal a whitish powder (and I think again).

A few minutes later the show ends and the voice-over comes up:

“…The Crown Prosecution Service offered no evidence against the two men caught in possession of ten kilos of class A drugs [heroin / cocaine / methamphetamine / …]”

Seriously guys: W.T.F?
