I believe it to be Ch4 next Monday at 9.00 series called coppers. The programme will be about the policing of this demo, seems to me that it was mainly the UAF getting nicked, as is always the way for our Demo's when they turn up.

The final programme in the series takes viewers to the heart of a riot.

With exclusive access to Greater Manchester Police's Tactical Aid Unit, cameras accompany officers as they police violent clashes between thousands of opposing demonstrators.

English Defence League supporters are marching on Bolton town centre, with counter-demonstrators from Unite Against Fascism waiting for them. Tactical Aid Unit officers, who are trained to tackle heavy duty jobs, from knocking down doors to controlling football crowds, are expected to hold the line between the two opposing groups. It's their job to keep the peace, whatever it takes.

But as protester numbers swell and the crowds become harder to control, violence and scores of arrests ensue. As events unfold, five camera crews are at the very heart of the action with the TAU officers, giving a candid picture of both sides of the divide, protesters and police.

This is my home town and me and my husband was there before a lot of the EDL lads came to find the UAF chanting stuff to nobody the councillors where looking out of the windows of the town hall thinking they had driven them away until we heard the loud sound of the EDL coming to Bolton it was a great atmosphere and from what I saw it was the UAF causing the trouble. I couldn't believe that some of these people brought kids with them and used them as some sort of shield. The crap they printed in the papers from Clifford Morris (councillor) was pure scare mongering I can't wait to see this programme..

Thanks for the info.. :)
