Road Wars

The One with the Tiny Motorbikes (4x8)

Uitzenddatum: Nov 23, 2006

Yorkie and Dixie are on a stakeout in Whitley. Roma and Ronnie are with them while they work their way through a range of magazines and do semaphore between the cars before doing a Most Haunted audition once darkness falls. And it takes them two nights of that before they get the chance to successfully spring the trap. Interestingly – even Lee whispers! The magnificent Mr Samuels makes his last ever appearance on Road Wars, stopping a chap who takes great exception to being nicked for the cannabis in his pocket. Apparently his name is ‘Noneofyourbusiness’ – though he doesn’t reveal whether it’s his first or last name. He’s not very impressed at being put in a cell, either. Chris and Simon pop down to the river near Windsor and fish up some characters who seem to be sharing a spliff. Interestingly, one of them thinks he can intimidate Chris with the threat of a complaint. They find themselves on the receiving end of a Stern Lecture from Simon. Charlie and Ruffy pick up an ANPR hit in Slough and get into a scrap with a nervous chap who doesn’t like the Police and who hasn’t got a full license – or L plates. But he does have a knife on his back seat and a bit of an aversion to handcuffs. Ronnie and Roma find the guys who were by the river with Chris and Simon. Same car, same problem. This time they’ve got even more weed – and knives. Looks like Simon’s lecture clearly wasn’t Stern enough! Charlie and Ruffy are in Bracknell, and go to the rescue of a security guard attacked while trying to fill a cashpoint. Bizarrely, there is no problem with Charlie parking in a disabled bay to deal with the matter – the guy they’ve nicked only has one leg. Charlie and Ruffy deal with tiny motorbikes, no insurance, no tax and no idea that they weren’t supposed to be riding on the road.
