How did the police intercept the gadget show larking about?

[welshsurferdude]

I was watching two of the presenters survielling one to area of M15 hq and a red ford tourneo van turned up with armed police

i was wondering if it was the camera crew that gave it away or the tracking devices?

[FourWheelDrift]

They were close to the MI6 building so the CCTV would always be closely monitored and someone might also have contacted the police about dodgy people in the area.

that sounds like what likely gave em away. moral of the story gadget show! dont play near sensitive areas!

Suzi Perry can play around my sensitive areas any time she wants!!

[welshsurferdude]

Id agree with that battenburg but alas my missus is hotter than her! so im quite happy! tho Suzi is probably a lot richer but im not complaining!

another question, i thought police vans were always white, but the Met Van was a tourneo in post office red? albeit with the usual met livery.

City of London livery* by the sounds of it.
Doubt very much the trackers they were trialling would've been picked up. What's a bit more radio chatter in an absolute fog of radio traffic?

• ETA: It's a fair cop, red is DPG.

Red vans are armed anti-terrorist cops - no?

That's what I was getting at with a simple "Eh?" but all I got was "Oh yes, my Observer's Book of Dibble says...."
I'll be more obvious next time.
