Law


The most famous pile station in Britain is New Scotland Yard in London, but there are police stations all over the country.
For most people the police are the face of the law. They can arrest people in the street, but they also give information.
Suspected criminal is being charge wit a crime. He must hand over everything he's carrying or has got in his pockets.
Suspects can be kept in the cells at the police station for several hours. This suspect spent a whole night in the cells.
As well as the cells we saw earlier, the pilice station in Lewisham has got stables for pilice hores. Police officers go out on horses every day, but lots of plicee horeses are needed when there are large crowds, at football matches or demonstations for example.
the evidence that the pilie coollect from a crime scene is analysed in laboratories like this.
They can examine and analyse material from the crime scene to find out exactly what happened.
The police are the most obvious part of the law in Britain. Their job is to make sure that people don't break the law and to catch them when teey do. Foresic scientists provide the evidence that helps the courts decide wheather a suspect is guilty of a crime or not. The courts then decide on the sentece.

SHOPPING!!


People in Britain really like shopping. In a recent survey 56% of women between the ages of 16 and 40 described shopping as their main hobby. They often go shopping every day!


Traditional, local shops exist in some areas. They sell different things like food, medicines and cosmetics, clothes and books. But in most high streets in Britain the same shop names appear all the time. Many towns have a large shop where you can buy a wide variety of items. They are called department stores.


This Bluewater near London. It's the largest shopping complex in Europe with over 330 different shops and three big department stores. For a lot of people "going shopping" doesn't mean they are going to buy anything. Many people never spend any money. It's a social event. Shopping centres are open late most nights of the week and from 11 o'clock until five o'clock on Sundays. So you go shopping just about whenever you want.
