Episode 1 of 6

Policeman turned comic Alfie Moore tackles dog theft which saw a huge rise in cases during the COVID pandemic. From 2021.

Alfie tackles the crime of dog theft which saw a huge rise in cases during the COVID pandemic.

Alfie takes us back to his time with the Humberside Police when he was called out to investigate the case of a missing dog. Is this even a police matter in the first place? Is it ok to offer a reward for the safe return of the dog with "no questions asked"? Alfie and the remote audience answer these questions and more with the help of a new online voting system that keeps the listeners on their toes as they're sworn in as police officers for the duration of the show.
