Village Shepherd

Those who follow the police soap "The Bill" on television, will be familiar with The Bronty. The Bronty is the local sink estate of high rise flats, prostitution, drug peddling and addiction, out of control children, and anything else you can think of that's really bad! Although there's been a clean-up operation there recently by the local police, for many episodes it was a no-go area. Officers who did venture onto The Bronty were likely to get beaten up or worse, with their cars regularly trashed in the few minutes they were left unattended.
