00:00In the British criminal justice system, police and crown prosecutors exhibit curious and fascinating habits.

00:06This is what America has learned from their stories.

00:11Behind every dead body on the streets, there's an innocent suspect.

00:15I didn't do it!

00:16You think I killed someone?

00:17You don't have anything on me.

00:18I didn't shake that baby!

00:20And it's up to these detectives to investigate the truth.

00:22They arrest the suspects.

00:24I'm arresting you.

00:27And bring them here, overseen by judges with wigs and furry clothing.

00:31Tell it to the jury.

00:32These are the crown prosecutors. They are passionate.

00:34You are kidding!

00:35Trust me, you're not!

00:36You've been stalking her!

00:37Look at me!

00:38Even so?

00:39Yes, oh no!

00:40They defer to judges as

00:41My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord,

00:46And

00:47My Lady, My Lady, My Lady, My Lady, My Lady,

00:50They love hearing this

00:51Guilty

00:52Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty

00:54And hate hearing this

00:55Not guilty, not guilty, not guilty, not guilty, not guilty.

00:58They cross their arms with conviction.

01:03These police and prosecutors are often incomprehensible.

01:06Oh, it's fancy one, but at first Mrs. Brooks recognized enough crap without going looking for it.

01:10And speak in code.

01:11Wanker.

01:12Bent.

01:12Cueing up.

01:13Blimey.

01:13Brilliant.

01:14Ducky.

01:14Bollocks.

01:15Lobby.

01:15Bloody.

01:16Bloody.

01:16Flat.

01:17Flatty.

01:17Mum.

01:18Mum.

01:18Mate.

01:19Mate.

01:20Mate.

01:21Mate.

01:22Mate.

01:23Mate.

01:24Mate.

01:24Bloke.

01:25Bloke.

01:26Bloke.

01:27Bloke.

01:27You should cut your knackers off.

01:28Spray them golden flooded with baubles for 90 pound a pop.

01:31They have a well balanced diet of sandwiches and pens.

01:35Do they love scotch?

01:37Uh-huh.

01:38But not as much as…

01:39Tea.

01:40A cup of tea in my office, gentlemen, please.

01:41Would you like a cup of tea?

01:43They hate placing things down gently.

01:49They make suspects cry.

01:51Witnesses cry, family of victims cry, they interrogate celebrity look-alikes, they understand

02:02the merits of a solid physical regiment, they only walk by the river when the camera pans

02:07like this.

02:09They're polite, they're compulsively clean, they're

02:19compulsively clean.

02:20The only thing these men and women love more than seeking justice is wearing scarves, maroon,

02:29grey, charcoal, turquoise, rainbow, beige, brown, argyle, black, double rainbow.

02:34Does this cover everything?

02:36No further questions.

02:37No further questions.

02:38No further questions.

02:39No more questions.

02:40I have no further questions.

02:45It's like our law and order, just more British.
