This is the first of a series of five podcasts recorded in London.

My guest today is a former police officer having completed 32 years of distinguished service. Chris Hobbs started his police career in Southall, West London. A vibrant and buzzing town where Sheikh, Hindu and Muslim communities live together. But as history has shown, that has not been without its problems which has resulted in some serious disorder in the late 70’s and early  80’s.

Chris retired in 2011 and is now a respected police commentator appearing on main stream media. He also writes regular articles for the online police magazine Police Oracle. So join us now as we pound the streets of Southall with Chris, visiting places and memories that shaped him as a police officer.
