Neighbourhood Blues

In Gateshead, a man is violently attacked in broad daylight outside a busy row of shops. The victim doesn't want to report the crime or even be treated by paramedics, but nonetheless the neighbourhood team quickly get to work to find his attackers. When the investigation runs into trouble, neighbourhood officers Mark and Steve do everything they can to bring those responsible to justice, but the odds are stacked against them. PC Louise is called to a DIY superstore where security is struggling with a man caught stealing on CCTV. Ironically, the item the shoplifter was spotted stealing was a home CCTV system. The neighbourhood team are on shift at the annual Sunderland International Airshow. As well as reuniting lost children with their relieved parents, the team cracks down on underage drinkers.
