I trust them enough. I haven't been given any reason to doubt them so far. But that doesn't mean that I will accept it blindly. The police still have to be accountable for their actions and still have to earn their respect. If I ever have reason to question this element, then I certainly won't...

I'm glad that we've finally got a good news story in relation to the police. There are obviously some bad apples in the force but they shouldn't be allowed to tarnish the good work that the rest are doing.

Firstly, I wouldn't want to be any animal that humans want to hunt or eat. Saying that, I've always liked the idea of being a big cat. So I would probably go for a cheetah. Very cool beasts.

I'm definitely more of an evening person. I do function in the morning but I seem to get extra energy when the sun is going down. As a result, I'm most productive at that time of the day.

They are simply weak-willed cowards if they take advantage of someone else's weakness. It's bullying and it's not right. The more we stand up to these people, the better. We must never accept this kind of terror.

That's a difficult one. I would probably say aged 10, but I think it depends on circumstances and maturity of the child. I'd rather a child live in the same world that I grew up experiencing - no phone and no drama. But that's not really going to happen any more.

I'm a big fan of beaches and I love the beaches of Thailand. Koh Samui and Phuket are two decent ones. As long as they're not overwhelmed by tourists I'm happy to visit either of them.

I don't like lawlessness like this. They had a very, very valid cause that they were fighting for, but then they do this stuff. It's so disappointing when this kind of thing happens. I hope the troublemakers (and it is about random opportunist troublemakers) get brought to order.

I've never been in a situation to do so but I would like to think that if I did get to that situation I would do the right thing. I think a lot of people are scared that they will be found out and be accused of sticking their nose in. Those telephone lines are exactly for that purpose -...

I honestly can't remember! It must have been about 10 years ago. I got into a small altercation with a guy and the policeman just happened to be in the vicinity. I don't go out of my way to find them or avoid them, to be honest.

Who knows what caused this guy to act so extremely. But you can't got shooting at police helicopters and expect not to face recriminations. Thankfully there was no additional loss of life.

Crazy what sorts of things trigger violence. Desperate men seek desperate measures perhaps. He clearly isn't in a good space but it's tragic when these types of stories arise.

I am always conflicted with capital punishment. I don't believe in the principle of an eye for an eye, but when you hear some of the crazy atrocities going on out there I do feel more reactionary. It's at those times that I really want to push for the death penalty. But I really don't feel...

It would depend on how serious it was. If it was something that I could deal with, I would handle it myself. But if we are talking about something more extreme, I think I would have to speak to the police.

Shocking story and it's sad for all parties concerned. You have to wonder what was going through the head of the kid at the time, and whether she was mentally stable. 11 year olds know the difference between right and wrong. This one just seems totally messed up. She's ruined for life now.

Police are human beings like everyone else. And although there are a lot of decent ones, a few rogue ones slip through the net. That's natural. They weren't born saints. Circumstances and pressure may also get to them.

I've been to a few places where there really hasn't been any crime, where the biggest issue is a cat getting stuck up a tree! It's probably pretty boring in places like that. And it just feels like all that training was wasted.

I do find her a little over the top in her crusading mindset. She always seems to know when people are guilty even if they protest their innocence. Her program isn't the healthiest of ones to watch.

I definitely think the law is blinded by celebrity, social class and money. There have been a number of cases where a crime has been committed by someone in the celebrity space that has been given a far lighter sentence than someone from the lower echelons of society. And we all know that a...

I often see myself as against the death penalty, as I don't like to agree with an eye for eye approach to life. But I do find myself instinctively reacting in another way when I see a story on television that may relate to terrorism, crime against a child, a massacre and so on. I'm pretty torn.
