Three police officers found themselves in the middle of a real-life Hot Fuzz moment when they were called in to escort a lost swan in Bath city centre.
The cygnet caused a flap among shoppers when it wandered into the middle of a Bath on Sunday afternoon.
Police officers had to round up the swan, much like the iconic scene in the action comedy movie Hot Fuzz, where Simon Pegg who plays bored police officer Nicholas Angel is called in by ‘P.I. Staker’ to chase down a missing bird in the fictional village of Sandford, Gloucestershire, with little success.
Hot Fuzz was filmed just 19 miles away from Bath in the Cathedral city of Wells, Somerset.
Avon and Somerset police appeared to handle the situation more smoothly than Constable Angel as three officers moved the bird on towards the nearby River Avon.
Life imitates art?
no luck catching them swans then
It’s just the one swan, actually.
Yarp.
