Episode 1 of 8

Emma-Marie has a tour of her new patch before making her first arrest. Christian’s driving skills are put to the test, and Drew and Rhys experience their first drugs bust.

What does it take to become a cop? Gwent Police’s new recruits are letting the cameras follow their first months on the beat.

They come from all walks of life and have taken a leap of faith to change careers and try to become police officers.

But with police forces busier than ever and public confidence at an all-time low, it’s never been tougher to be a cop. After six months in the classroom, they’re hitting the streets under the watchful eye of their tutors.

They have just 12 weeks to prove they have what it takes.

Former support worker Emma Marie gets a tour of her new station with tutor Sam, before carrying out her first arrest.

Former law student Christian must pass a nerve-wracking driving test before he can be signed off to drive the police cars.

On day two of the job, old friends Drew and Rhys are paired up with tutor Dan to experience their first ever drugs bust.
