CUFFS: REAL LIFE

How far does that extract try to create a sense that it is portraying 'real life? 

The extract seeks to portray the experience is being a member of the police force and goes to many different mesausers to make this happen. For example, when they put the camera in the police car it gives us a sense of being in there with them and makes us feel like we are really there. This gives us a measure of excitement and gives u a sense of enjoyment. This is because the BBC is required to give us good quality television like cuffs with their exciting camera shots.
