It's all gone wrong
Four stars, a flamethrower and the helicopter overhead. The road out of town is jammed with everyone who wants a word.

A slap on the wrist
The local bobbies
A patrol car or two, and a pair of officers in hi-vis who'll chase you on foot.
The real Bridgwater
Every street. Every roundabout.
CornhillWhere it all starts, under the old dome.
The ParrettThe river splits the town — and the turf.

On the run
Lose them any way you can
Down the High Street
A borrowed Fiesta, the old streets of the town centre, and blue lights filling the mirror.
Out on the Levels
Rain sets in, the rhynes overtop and the droves flood. Take a tractor, and watch the patrol car get stuck.
Up the Parrett
A speedboat past the docks and under the Town Bridge, with the river police right behind you.
The rooftop car park
Top floor at Eastover. There's a quicker way down than the ramp.
Cool Games, Son
A whole arcade inside the game
Off East Quay, in the old TimeWarp building, there's an arcade under neon. Walk up to a cabinet and it fills the screen — every one of them a game of its own.
