Piglets: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

The government's stated policy of recruiting 20,000 new police officers in double quick time has not come at the cost of lowering standards. Or has it?  Set in a fictional police training college, Piglets is about a newly recruited group of six very different would-be cops and the handful of key staff whose thankless task it is to knock them into some kind of shape.
