DeeGee Dec 2020 2:20pm, 2 Dec 2020 20,165 posts	0 DeeGee The character of Rosco P. Coltrane in "Dukes of Hazzard" was deliberately made more comedic on the request of the actor who played him when he found out the show was popular with children. He didn't want the children watching to be afraid to approach a police officer.

This throws up some interesting stats. For example, Liverpool have just under 6000 ST holders in the catchment area while Everton, 1 mile away, have over 25,000 local ST holders.
