Victorian Police

Victorian police were more commonly known as peelers in those days. Before walkie talkies were invented they used a whistle to communicate with each other. They used a cutlass and a baton as a weapon (luckily they don’t use a cutlass now!). If you were given a prison sentence (which is most likely in those days) you would be given a punishment to do such as the screw, the still treadmill and the bicycle that only changes the numbers.
