  Imagine running for 10-15 minutes into the hills and a fucking cop just terminator runs at you out of nowhere

  "By the first 500 yards, your fucked" not a truer word spoken 😂😂 Kit is way to heavy to be sprinting after people who wear tracksuits 😂

  I've run after a couple of purse-snatchers and that 500yd line is spot on. I lost my first one (hey, I was like 14 and the streets were thick with ice), but I caught my second one (in my prime) and let me tell you, after about three blocks it was *comedic*, he was wheezing, I was wheezing, we were both barely moving, occasionally stopping with our hands on our knees, leaning on lampposts, wheezing like geriatric steam engines. It was a truly pitiful sight towards the end.

  "Bradfords a right Shithole!"  Never a truer word spoken on the internet. 🙂

  In the case of Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg's character), he was an overachiever who made his colleagues look bad (including his superiors). A stark contrast to the deadbeat title character he played in Shaun of the Dead.

  Fun fact about Hot Fuzz: the shop was a genuine shop, and the glass display was a real one. Very expensive to replace so to avoid damaging it and having to replace it they made the powder sparks make it look like bullet proof glass. They still ended up cracking one of the panels when they ran the trolleys into it, so ho hum.

  The reason the deli counter glass in the supermarket does not break despite all the gunfire is because those things are actually very expensive and they did not have the budget to replace one.   They got permission to shoot in a real supermarket but had to pay for any damages they caused.

  A friend of mine is a retired police officer. We went to Wells (Sandford) and toured some of the shooting locations, found the layby in the decapitation scene & my mate posed by the 'Welcome to Wells' sign with his warrant card. Pegg's signed flak jacket is on the wall of a pub. Fun trivia: the mad santa who stabs Pegg in the hand is Lord of the Rings director, Peter Jackson. Kate Blanchett is unrecognisable in the forensic kit but plays Pegg's ex. She went on to play Galadriel in LOTR. Martin Freeman of course, was Bilbo in the Hobbit. They wanted someone like ' Tim Dalton' for the main villain and as shooting approached someone apparently suggested asking him...and he said yes:).

  I've got PTSD from being a police officer Ben, I'm a student learning disability nurse now, I work in MH a lot as well. Thanks for being so open and honest. - Just a comment to make you know you aren't alone ❤

  An officer without a gun? That must give so many Americans a heart attack! 😂
