Good Cop
Synopsis
Filmed over the course of 18 turbulent months in Scotland that took in a race murder, the G8 summit and the London bombings, Good Cop follows Strathclyde Police's Race Relations co-ordinator, Chief Inspector Tom Harrigan about his work in Glasgow, one of Europe's toughest cities.
Filmmakers Doug Aubrey and Marie Olesen gained unique access to Tom in his final year before retirement after 29 years service in the Police, and captured a remarkable insight into a maverick Police Officer and his often unorthodox working methods.
'There's only one race so how can you co-ordinate one race?' (Tom Harrigan).
