“What we weren’t expecting to find, was a misconduct process that was unfit for purpose in addressing seriously concerning behaviour; a broken system that meant expectations of the public weren’t being met day to day.” NBPA theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2…

Police receive a call from a woman saying she was sexually assaulted by an on-duty police officer. The officer says she assaulted him and that he’s not at fault. How do the police tell who is right? To Catch a Copper, starts tonight at 9pm. Stream free on Channel 4.

All fly on the wall docs following police I’ve seen amount to copaganda. Not this. ‘To Catch A Copper’ reveals how unfit for purpose holding snide coppers to account really is. Watch tonight at 9pm on Channel 4.

This weekend Ashley Francis-Roy and Sasha Kosminsky's brilliant film Striking With Pride lands on Sky/Now TV. The whole team Story Films are so proud of it. Ashley is one of the most creative directors out there. He's made a rare thing, a feature doc that will make you laugh and cry.

No discussion can do justice to the powerful, moving history and insight in Striking With Pride. Strongly recommended via NowTV or Sky.

We just watched #StrikingWithPride directed by Ashley Francis-Roy. A powerful, moving and life-affirming documentary about the unexpected coming together of gay people and striking miners in 1984. I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Thanks to all involved.

So proud To Catch A Copper won Best Documentary Series at the Broadcast Awards. This week we learnt police complaints have risen 13% as a result of the series and we’re so pleased it’s having an impact that will hopefully improve policing and people’s experience of it.❤️‍🔥
