How would Nicholas Angel (Hot Fuzz) have coped if had been sent to Balamory instead of Stamford?

Yes I'm watching Balamory with my little one and this came into my mind. So how would it go?

I'm sure the residents of Stamford are aghast at being mistaken for living in the den of murder & iniquity that is Sandford!

I'm an idiot. I've edited the text body but the title stays.

It's Sandford
I can say that cos it's a line from Hot Fuzz.
Anyway, we talking the old Balamory or the new? Cos PC Plum seems even more incompetent in the new one considering he's got well over 20 years' service (& thus obviously the ringleader in a conspiracy), though the old one is closer in time to HF.

I'm an idiot. I've edited the body but can't edit the title.
And the new Balamory as that's the one my near 3 year old is watching.

Unless balamory has a booming drug trade from overseas I can see him getting very bored very quickly. It took a murderous cult for him to settle in the countryside, I don’t think gull watching is for him
aleopardstail@reddit
of course it has a drug trade, just look at the place

Balamory has a dark side, they would be finding murders everywhere

Are you thinking of The Wicker Man?

Him and Plum would have fucked-up Suzie Sweet

Archie the inventor, he knows how things are done, he can make absolutely anything, it's all for the greater good...

PC Plum would be an excellent Danny Butterman replacement.
TrifectaOfSquish@reddit
It's the kind of place he would like for the tail end of his career but would probably be very bored

Well assuming Archie was the head of a secret organisation that kept order by disappearing teenagers and housing developers, I'm sure he'd have been just fine.
