Hit Channel 5 documentary Motorway Cops: Catching Britain's Speeders, which stars officers from Staffordshire Police, will return next week.

The series follows the Staffordshire Police road crime team as they take down criminals using the county's road network.

Staffordshire Police said: "Film crews have spent several months exclusively with officers from the road crime team, capturing real‑time responses to incidents ranging from high‑speed pursuits and drink‑drive stops to arrests of wanted offenders and attendance at serious collisions."

The first part of the series aired in April following an exclusive screening at the Gatehouse Theatre.

Chief Inspector Scott McGrath, from the road crime team, said: "Taking part in this series has been a fantastic experience, giving us the chance to show our communities just how much effort and commitment goes into keeping them safe on our roads.

"The show really opens the door on the huge variety of incidents our road crime team tackles - everything from stopping speeding and drink drivers to tracking down wanted suspects and responding to major collisions.

"It's fast-paced, unpredictable work, and the series captures that perfectly.

"Viewers will see that our officers are relentless when it comes to pursuing criminals and protecting the public.

"But just as importantly, the programme reveals the human side of the team.

"I hope people get a sense of the passion, professionalism and personality behind the badge as they follow us through each episode."

Motorway Cops: Catching Britain's Speeders will continue with episode four on Tuesday 18 August at 8pm.

Alternatively, fans can stream the show on 5 (My5).
