The helmet came in very handy. Towards the end of the big dance, a bottle was thrown at us and I deflected it with the helmet, and a Police Sergeant gave me a hug (without me asking him for one - I think he recognized me from the Love Police work. Wish I was filming at the time. Oh well...

Q: How did you escape the "pre-crime arrest cage"
A: "After about 30 minutes of talk on the megaphone, including an interview done with LBC from the cage, I simply walked to the other end of the park, bumped into an Inspector level Policeman, and told him in no uncertain terms that I was leaving. I think he saw sense and allowed me to leave. I think the Police realised soon after detaining us all that it might not have been the best idea, seeing as now it's on the internet."
