Top Coppers

Top Coppers follow the adventures of cops John Mahogany (Steen Raskopoulos) and Mitch Rust (John Kearns[4]) as they attempt to rid the fictional world of Justice City from its deranged criminal underworld.

They both have red hair (ie copper coloured), giving a double meaning to the show's title.

The universe and its characters are derived from the conventions of American and British police shows of the 70s and 80s, from Starsky & Hutch to The Professionals, but is set in no specific time or country.

[5] The first series premiered on 19 August 2015 on BBC Three and ran for 6 episodes which aired on Wednesdays.

The exterior of Justice City Police Department is filmed at the main entrance to the Dagenham Civic Centre on Rainham Road North, Dagenham Essex, with the JCPD sign above the door digitally composited to replace the crest above the doorway and a city skyline composited behind the building.
