"I have taken up many operational posts since I joined the Force in 1992 and so when the opportunity of being a part-time presenter for 'Police Report' came up, I jumped at it. This is a new challenge for me," said Mr Brooks.

Mr Brooks also invited his old friend Michael Wong, an artiste, to appear in his first episode. He said: "Michael makes working in front of a camera easy. Despite what some people may think, it definitely isn't easy to appear natural in front of a camera."

In the episode featuring 'smart driving', Mr Wong flew his helicopter above Victoria Harbour to take a bird's eye view of the driving manners of road users.
