'Guv' was also used extensivly in 'The Sweeny', which was contemperous with the setting for 'Life on Mars'. Which, incidently was a great series and well worth watching.... can't wait for the next series (season, to our cross-Atlantic chums....).
I querstioned one of my mates ( an ex-chief inspector for Cheshire Constabulary) and he confirmed that 'gov' is still used by plain-clothes divisions, though frowned upon in uniformed branch.
