Serving police dog handler Dave Wardell and former armed response police officer Harry Tangye have a light-hearted relaxed chat about the latest week in policing.

Dave and his family are going through a torrid time with Finn but there is hope so there's a quick update on that.  It'll just be Harry today having a chat but it's time to have an update on policing generally as well.

Today's live firearms chat is with Superintendent Andrea Quinton who has worked as a GMP police officer for 30 years and is currently a firearms commander.  We'll be discussing her work in response, neighbourhood, CID, prisoner processing, proactive policing and training.  She's a trustee for Thin Blue Line Uk

This week we chat about what's been happening in the past week for FrontLineChat.  Kick back and join with the natter!  The Thin Blue Paw Awards amongst other things where I met another FrontLineChat guest as well.  Who was it?!

We have an old friend of mine coming on as a guest.  I worked with him in the Traffic Department in Devon about 11 years ago, when he left to work as a police officer in Canada.  He's been involved in delivering death notification training in Barbados, western Canada and San Diego, Florida and Phoenix and is now a detective on the professional standards unit.  (Police complaints)  Let's see how the UK and Canada compare.

After a week that contained the awful shooting of 5 innocent people, including a little girl and her father in Plymouth, with the killer then shooting himself, it's raised many questions.  Today on Frontline Chat we discuss what goes through officers minds when they attend a violent or another major incident.  What actually goes on in the background and then what happens afterwards.
