In this week's Q&A episode, Andy & Neil debate whether or not it's time to increase the age of criminal responsibility. It's currently 10 in England, Wales & Northern Ireland, but it's 12 in Scotland, and the UN recommends 14. Who's got it right? Andy cites the recent case where two 12 year-olds were convicted of murder in Wolverhampton and asks: would justice really have been served if they had been allowed to walk free?
Andy & Neil also discuss some of the dangerous situations they've found themselves in during their careers, from receiving death threats from gang leaders to needing police protection after going undercover. They explain how their families and friends have reacted to them finding themselves in those situations, and what advice they'd give to anyone else following in their footsteps.
Plus, Andy goes on a passionate rant in response to a question about controversial 'police auditors' - individuals who film their interactions with officers trying to do their jobs.
