Featuring in the series is PC Mary-Anne Hutchinson from South Shields.
“I think a lot of people see what they read on the news, they just see what’s on the telly, but actually this gives you an insight of what we do on a day-to-day basis,” said PC Hutchinson.
“[It allows you] to get to know us as people as opposed to just police officers.”
The first episode will air at 8pm on Monday, April 1, and will also be available to stream using My5.
