Peter Rhodes on old movies, a BBC warning and memories of feeding the elephants
“Contains some upsetting scenes” is the BBC's warning on CCTV footage showing a bicycling suspect being arrested in Grimsby.
Chased by one police car, he collides head-on with another, flies over the handlebars, crashes to the ground, and is promptly nicked by five armed cops. Later he is charged with possessing an imitation firearm, a bladed article and some cannabis, trying to escape lawful custody and assaulting an emergency worker.
So tell us, Auntie Beeb. Which bit are we supposed to find upsetting?
