Sandford


 * "Statistically, Sandford is the safest village in the country." - Frank Butterman

Sandford is a fictional rural village "in the middle of nowhere" as depicted in the movie Hot Fuzz. It once boasted the lowest crime rate in England, since there has been no murder there for twenty years.

Arrival of Nicholas
When Nicholas Angel was sent to Sandford, he made a theory that the numerous accidents which occur in Sandford are all connected somehow, and eventually uncovered the plot of the Neighbourhood Watch Alliance. This led to a large group of Sandford's population being arrested, including the ringmaster of the criminal activity: Frank Butterman, Chief Inspector of Sandford Police Service.

Trivia

 * Sandford is actually a fictitious place used by police services for recruits in exams in reality.
