Documentary series. Police in Spain are searching for a fugitive who escaped a courtroom in the UK and has been on the run for seven years.

In Spain, Inspector Olga Lizana from the Spanish National Police's Extradition team is searching for a fugitive who has been on the run for seven years. He made a dramatic escape from a British courtroom seven weeks into a trial for violent robbery. He evades capture once, escaping by driving the wrong way down a Spanish motorway. When Olga finds his latest hideout on the Costa Blanca, he won't escape again.

In Coventry, officers from West Midlands Police stage a dawn raid. They are searching for a Polish man who has already served six years in prison for murder. Now the Home Office wants him out of the UK.

In London, the Extradition Unit at the Metropolitan Police are on a week-long operation. The target is a man convicted of producing and selling counterfeit CDs and DVDs back home in Poland. It is only quarter to six in the morning, but DS Pete Rance and his team are already making an arrest.
