Mention of the River Police always reminds me of a snippet/sketch on a television comedy show, Monty Python? Showing two Policemen strolling up a river with Wellingtons on and flashing Blue Lights? on their old style Bobbies Helmets
Do they still have Designated River Police, when I was at the TCC they were employed if I remember correctly by the TCC? now that the River Authority has been privatised does the company still employ its own River Police? My only contact with them was either when we dredged up a body or when we went alongside the old Oil Jetties on the South of the river for Bunkers.
