No, Regan and Carter would be shagged out before they left the bedroom!
Do you suppose Jack Regan, in the throes of passion, shouted "Guv!"

Back in the eighties the favourite of the pigs in Adelaide was to say before a chase started
Don't make me chase you Son...would you believe some greenhorns actually turned around.....fear is a powerful weapon if used right
Mind you back then they used to hand out some sound thrashings
in private
Certainly kept the gangs off the streets unlike today where they roam in packs of 20 to a 100 doing as they wish
cheers

?Oi? is an abbreviation of ?Oi-nk? as in ?Oink Oink?. Mystery solved.

A police raid with a squad of cars sounding their sirens is always going to catch the villains napping. They obviously have no idea what the noise is.

My brother got permission to squash some psycho twat who was twirling a machete around in the street with a van once. He didn't bother though as nobody in the van knew if it was worth dropping the grill down over the window to protect it from busting on impact with said psycho boy's head. Loser gave himself up in the end though. Would have been funny watching him trying to outrun the van mind you....."Oi, stop, stop" would not really be a realistic worthwile challenge when responding to any incident. Apart from maybe "STOP! Armed police!". Or the dogs, for fucks sake not the dogs.....

You're damn right it would never have happened in The Sweeney, Magoo. If I remember rightly, villains would only be roughed-up against corrugated iron walls after our two kipper-tied heroes had smoked 500 Capstan full strengh and drank four entire bottles of scotch back at the station. They would then speed through the streets in their ace low-slung Jag, miraculously not killing themselves. So there was no need for punches once at the scene, really. They could've just breathed on them.

It was a 2.8 Ford Granada. The Coventry Car Mueseum had this on display next to a DeLorean used in Back to The Future film.
