Company

The government's stated policy of recruiting 20,000 new police officers in double quick time has not come at the cost of lowering standards. Or has it?

Set in a fictional police training college, Piglets is about a newly recruited group of six very different would-be cops and the handful of key staff whose thankless task it is to knock them into some kind of shape.
