Askrigg is a small village and civil parish in Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It is part of the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. The village and its parish are located in Upper Wensleydale, 12 miles west of Leyburn, and 5 miles east of Hawes. It is 26.4 miles (42.5 km) west of the County Town of Northallerton.
The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book as Ascric.[2] At the time of the Norman invasion the manor was held by Arnketil. Afterwards the lands were owned on behalf of the Crown by Count Alan of Brittany who granted then lordship of the manor to Gospatric, son of Arnketil. By 1251 the manor had come to the Fitz Hugh family who were also lords of Ravenworth and stayed with them until the 16th century. In the early 16th century the manor became the possession of Sir Thomas Parr. His son William died without issue in 1571 when it became the property of the Crown. In 1664 the manorial rights were leased from the Crown by Metcalfe family.[3][4]
The name Askrigg is of Old Norse origin, consisting of the combination of askr (ash tree) and hryggr (ridge), meaning the ridge where ash trees grew, denoting the existence of Viking settlers and their farming. The oldest settlement probably dates back to the Iron Age.[5][6]
The village remained of little commercial importance throughout the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries when Wensleydale was extensively used for sheep grazing by the Cistercian monks, who became prosperous on the profits of the wool trade. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, however, secular wealth became important in the dale following the border conflicts in the north and the Dissolution of the Monasteries throughout the country.[7]
Askrigg was granted a Charter by Elizabeth I in 1587 for the holding of a weekly market on Thursday, and of fairs in spring, summer and autumn. Askrigg's prosperity peaked in the eighteenth century when trade in textiles and knitting was most lucrative and the village supported many craftsmen and gained a reputation for clockmaking. The earliest mention of Askrigg clockmakers being a Quaker named John Ogden, who moved to Askrigg in 1680 and manufactured his clocks there until 1720. He was succeeded by Mark Metcalfe (1687–1776) and Christopher Caygill (1747–1803). Another well-known clockmaker was James Pratt (1787–1850). All three had sons who were also clockmakers. Two 19th-century clockmakers were John Stancliffe and John Skidmore.[8]
Askrigg was the home of the Wensleydale Metcalfe family who lived at nearby Nappa Hall. Mary, Queen of Scots, was once imprisoned in the house, possibly before she was moved to Castle Bolton further down the dale.
Askrigg has a market cross erected in 1830, a stone pump and an iron bull ring set into the cobbles. The bull ring dates from the 18th century and earlier, when bulls would be tied here and then attacked or baited with dogs. A local historian wrote that "it used to be a custom in Askrigg for a man who wanted to fight to go and turn the bull ring over; if another man was feeling the same, he came and turned it back and they had a fight."[7]
One of the local pubs, the Crown Inn, has been known under this name since the 1850s and there has been an inn at this site since the late 18th century. The other pub, the Kings Arms, was built in 1767 as a coaching inn by John Pratt, a local who had made a fortune as a jockey. Pratt was a racehorse breeder and master of the Askrigg Harriers during the 18th century. He kept his hunters and pack of hounds in a yard behind the house he built on Askrigg's main street in 1767. The kennels and stabling date to the late 18th or early 19th century. The kennels had a semi-circular enclosure attached and the long row of stabling lay beyond. Pratt's hunters were ridden in and out of his land through Robinson's Gateways on the main street. The site has now been developed to provide holiday accommodation.[7]
The village once had a railway station that was part of the Hawes Branch of the North Eastern Railway from its opening in 1878 to its closure in April 1954. The Wensleydale Railway Association has plans to rebuild the railway from Northallerton (from its current western terminus at Redmire) to Garsdale including the re-opening of the station in the village. This would be done in the period between 2010 – 2014.[9]
The village lies within the Richmond UK Parliament constituency. It is also within the Upper Dales electoral division of North Yorkshire County Council and the Addlebrough ward of Richmondshire District Council.[10] The local Parish Council has six councillors.[11]
The civil parish shares a grouped parish council with the civil parish of Low Abbotside, known as Askrigg & Low Abbotside Parish Council.[12]
The civil parish area covers the village itself and several small hamlets including Newbiggin and Woodhall.
The River Ure forms the southern boundary of the parish and is fed by Grange Beck, Paddock Beck and Newbiggin Beck in the parish. The highest point in the parish is at Cogill Head Hags at around 630 feet (190 m). The nearest settlements to the village are Bainbridge 1.1 miles (1.8 km) to the south-west and Thornton Rust 2 miles (3.2 km) to the south-east.
The census figures for Askrigg include the population of Low Abbotside. In 2012 the population of Askrigg parish alone was estimated at 450, compared with 110 in Low Abbotside.[1]
2001 census[edit]
The 2001 UK census showed that the population was split 50% male to 50% female. The religious constituency was made of 83.3% Christian and the rest stating no religion or not stating at all. The ethnic make-up was 99.2% White British and 0.8% White other. There were 305 dwellings.[14]
2011 census[edit]
The 2011 UK census showed that the population was split 50% male to 50% female. The religious constituency was made of 69.4% Christian, 0.2% Jewish, 0.5% Buddhist and the rest stating no religion or not stating at all. The ethnic make-up was 97.3% White British, 1.0% White Other, 0.2% Mixed ethnic, 0.2% British Asian, 0.2% British Black and 0.2% Other Ethnic. There were 356 dwellings.[15]
Community and culture[edit]
Education in the village is provided at Askrigg VC Primary school. The school occupies part of the building formerly housing the Yorebridge Grammar School.[16] Pupils would receive secondary education at The Wensleydale School & Sixth Form in Leyburn.[17]
At the western end of the village is the Yorebridge Sports Development Association. It has a Multi Use Games Area that can be used for Football, Tennis, Basketball and Netball, and there is also a Gymnasium with a Fitness Centre.[18] At Low Mill there is an Outdoor Activities Centre established in 1976.[19] Askrigg has three pubs, a village bakery with delicatessen, two tea rooms, a village shop, and newsagents. There are also a number of Bed & Breakfast establishments.[20]
The village has become notable through its role as the fictional Darrowby in the BBC TV series All Creatures Great and Small. Cringley House, which doubled as the exterior of Skeldale House in the series, is now a bed and breakfast.[21]
The Kings Arms Hotel doubled as the Drovers Arms in the television series All Creatures Great and Small[21]
The local church is dedicated to St Oswald and was erected about 1466. There was a Wesleyan Methodist chapel here, erected in 1878 on the site of a former chapel. Subsequently known as Bottom Chapel, it was run as a bed and breakfast before becoming a private dwelling. The Primitive Methodists also built a chapel in the village in 1869 as part of the Middleham Circuit.[3][4]
Notable buildings and landmarks[edit]
- St Oswalds Church is a Grade I listed building.[22] It is of stone construction in the Perpendicular style, consisting of chancel, nave, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower with pinnacles containing a clock and six bells.[3][4]
- Nappa Hall is a Grade I listed building.[23] Nappa Hall is a 15th-century fortified manor house. It was built in 1459 by James Metcalfe and his son Sir Thomas Metcalfe at a time when there were frequent raids by the Scots. A single-storey central hall sits between two towers, a four-storey western tower and a two-storey eastern tower. The four-storey tower has a turret, lit by slit vents, for a spiral staircase that climbs to crenellated parapets. The taller tower retains its original windows, but sash windows were inserted in the 18th century in the lower two-storey block which housed the kitchen and service rooms, at the opposite end of the hall. In the 17th century, an extra wing was added. The hall remained mainly in the hands of the Metcalfe family for nearly five and a half centuries until it was sold in 2008.[3][4][7]
- Ring Cairn, Force Ing. West of Whitfield Gill is a ring cairn, which is a circle of stones that surround a depression on the ground and could signify a prehistoric burial site. This has been designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[24]
- Ring Cairn near Church. About a quarter of a mile west of the Church in Askrigg is a Bronze Age ring cairn that today survives as an earthwork. This has been designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[25]
- Mill Gill Force is a spectacular waterfall about three-quarters of a mile to the north-west, waters pouring down about 25 feet into a steep rocky ravine hidden in woodland. The waterfall can be reached by an easy 15 minutes walk from the village centre, the footpath is waymarked.

In a significant departure from previous rulings, the state Supreme Court has greatly expanded the power of prosecutors to present a defendant's past
criminal record to juries at trial.
The high court split 5-2 in favor of adopting a new rule allowing prosecutors to inform a jury of any criminal conviction, as long as the verdict was obtained within the previous 10 years or the defendant had been released from prison for the offense within the previous 10 years.
The ruling, filed Thursday, swept away more than 15 years of holdings by the high court, in which prior convictions were deemed admissible at trial only when the convictions involved "crimes involving dishonesty or false statement."

Hi MM Gurus,
We are facing one issue related on VAT on Freight.
As material is related to excise.
We want
Base Price : 1000
SubTotal : 1123
Freight : 100
SubTotal : 1223
G Total : 1279.15
How to map this thing in SAP???..though Routine..
I have create one condition type for Freight in pricing Procedure and one condition type in taxation procedure.
How to interlink this two condition through Routine.
We are using TAXINN procedure..
Hello Amit,
VAT @ 5 % is calculated on Basic + ED or Basic + ED + Frieght?
yes...VAT (5%)is Calculated on (Basic Price+BED+ECS+SES and Freight).
Hi Amit,
You can remove the accrual mark in fright condition then the value of fright will be added to your net price then your requirement will be solved.
Go to m/06
select fright condition, then remove the accrual key in bottom of condition type.
Hi Anjali
If I remove the accrual tick then whole freight will add to basic price and Excise is also get calculated on basic price..on Freight Excise not applicable.
hi Amit,
Pls note below :
- You have created fright cond.in MM prc. Its ok.
- You have to create Three new cond. for TAX procedure.
1 for - VAT Calculation base-make the same statistical.
2 for VAT % - Copy the same from JVRD.
3 for Freight condtion charges which are as of MM pricing prc in cond. tab.
-Do proper "classify condition type" setting for VAT condition.
-You want to fetch the freight value in tax procedute to calculate VAT.
For this you can do this in two ways
- With routine - you have to tell logic to Abaper for this to fetch value of Freight cond.to Tax prc conditon no. 3
- W/O Routine - make a suse of :reference cond type " and "application" for tax prc condition 3. in OBQ1.
- You can also make condition record for VAT condition in FV11.
- Insert Ref. freight cond, base for VAT calculation & Final VAT calculation in tax prc.
Hope this will help you.
Hi Nilesh
Actually we thought to go for (With Routine..). But we are unable to develop the proper logic for the same.
can u please tell us briefly..what is the logic of Routine.?
Where that routine should assign ?(Tax procedure or MM Pricing Procedure.)
Thanks a Lot
Dear Amit,
I understood your scenario. You want calculate Vat on base price + excise duty and Freigt amount also. You have to change your PO and tax pricing procedure.
1)Create Freight conditions in PO pricing.
2)Add the freight condition in PO pricing procedure before NAVS condition.
Assign subtotal routine 6 to freight condition.
Tax Procedure.
1)Same freigt condition create your TAx procedure. Which tax procedure u r using TAXINN or TAXINJ?
2)Add the Freigt condition in tax procedure as stastical before JVRD and JVRN condition. No need to assign any routine here.
3)Assigne calculation routine 510 and base routine 363 to your VAT contdition.
Please check above setting. Your Scenario will definately work. If any issue, Please revert.
Hi Nitesh
I have done the same..
I have Assign Subtotal Routine 6, Cal Rou : 510 and base Routine 363 to that condition type,
also created new condition type in taxation procedure. (Same as MM pricing procedure).
but that value is not appearing in taxation procedure (in condition type).
Now Freight value reducing from base value.
Dear Amit,
Go to the invoice tab- and check your calculation coming correct or not?
Which value not showing in Taxation proceddure?
Please expedite the details.
Note:-Same scenario is working fine in my customer side and i configured this in last april month.
any help Please reveret.
Dear Nitesh
I have create the same condition type in MM pricing procedure and taxation procedure, and also assign the routine No.which you told earlier.
But he value is not appearing in invoice tab of PO ,,(in respected condition type viz. ZFVT),
I think something is missing.!!
The Freight condition wont show in Invoice--Taxes tab.
Because, The freight amont enterd in PO pricing and it is routed for Vat calucaltion.
1)tell me one thing- the calculation is coming correct or not?
2)The net amount with all taxes is correct or not?
No taxes amount is not correct..
The base value in getting reduce by the amount which is there in condition type.
and VAT is also get reduce because of this.
Thanks Nitesh
for guiding me to solve this issue..
Taking effort to send me screen shot..
your answer is also correct.
so very very thanks
Does your freight go to the same vendor as material? normally freight is vattable in India only if it is appearing in the invoice. remove the accruals, ( use freight type condition ) and in subtotals field enter 6. ( KZWI6). in mm pricing procedure. in tax procedure, your tax condion should have bas type 363 and calc type 370 for deductible and 371 for ND; attach 362 to BASB to fetch KZWI6
Hi Ajit
Very very thanks for guiding this issue..
The solution which you told is exactly correct and working properly.
The correct answer is
Create new condition type for Freight (On which VAT is applicable).(Accural unticked)
Put subtotal "6" for the condition type.
In Taxation Procedure
Attach 362 to BASB (Base Amount )in BasType.
and For VAT condition type Viz JVRE and JVRD BasType "363"
and CalType 370 and 371 for Deductible and non dedectible..
now proper VAT is appearing in system.
Can anyone tell anyone logic of Routine for above process?
There is no need for any additonal routines. This is quite a standard process.
Could you please guide me, i too have similar kind of concern.
Here i wish to calculate the VAT % based on the only Fright value which is there in condition tab without adding other taxes.
Freight Value in Conditon tab = 650 INR
VAT 5% = 32.5 INR (Need to be displayed in Invoice tab, after calculating 5% VAT on 650 INR which is there condition tab)
for this i used the below condition types....
Attach 362 to BASB (Base Amount )in BasType.
and For VAT condition type JVRD BasType "11" and CalType 370.
please suggest me, how can i pick the fright amount (in condition tab) for calculating VAT % in Invoice tab. Thank you.
Create new condition type for Freight (On which VAT is applicable).(Accural unticked)

plz revert ...
VAT is displaying for the sub total amount of Base amount + other taxes. Here my requirement is need to calculate the VAT on fright value (or Discount value) which is there in condition tab. Below are the snap shots for my requirement. could you please look into these and advice me.
and if possible, tell me, in which routine VAT % is calculating?
It means in your case the VAT is applicable only on Freight (not on material cost)..???
Yes, just want to calculate VAT on Fright or Discount amount which is there in Condition tab.
Dear Sir
The Scenario is too much new,,
please open new discussion for the same. As this thread is closed. (in Search it is not coming)
So that everybody can discuss about the same. I also want to know the same..
surely u will get answer for the same.
Dear Amit,
certainly i'll do that...and thank you for time and replay.

Named for its most illustrious alumnus, The Edward R. Murrow College of Communication is highly regarded nationwide by educators and professionals. It has won national and regional Emmys for student television productions, is nationally ranked 4th in television news and first in the Northwest for its public relations sequence. In 2012, the journalism program was ranked in the top 25 nationally by NewsPro Magazine.
This year Sony and The Murrow College of Washington State University celebrate 10 Years of internship participation at NAB. "It's a bit unreal that ten years have passed since The Murrow College was invited to participate in the Sony/NAB internship program," says Marvin V. Marcelo, Associate Dean and General Manager.
It all started back in 2003, when the school began their initial transition from analog to digital. They attended NAB to specifically look at Sony's XDCAM™ Professional Disc™ system of cameras, players and recorders. After the students had their first experience operating and demoing the XD cameras and decks at NAB, the school ended up purchasing three PDW-510 and three PDW-530 XD cameras and twelve PDW-1500 XD player/recorders for their broadcast program.
Fast forward to 2012, the school took the next step towards converting from standard definition digital to HD. At the NAB conference, the students took a serious look at Sony's MVS-7000 HD switcher and the HXC-D70 HD studio cameras. They liked the switcher's compatibility with their existing SD equipment, while giving them the ability to move forward with new HD equipment. The school purchased the Sony MVS-7000 for their studio along with three Sony HXC-D70 HD cameras in a studio configuration. The schools next move is to upgrade all of the EFP/ENG cameras to HD, specifically the PMW-200 cameras.
For the last 10 years Marvin has be instrumental in selecting his school's equipment needs in addition to selecting his top students to participate in the program. "The Sony/NAB internship program has given our students real-world experience that they would not get inside the classroom. They not only get to interact with key Sony sales engineers to ask questions about equipment performance and functionality, but they get to interact with other broadcast and media professionals who use Sony's equipment in their organizations. The knowledge and experience the students gain from this internship has been invaluable to their careers and gave them an edge when looking for their first job in the industry."
Here are just some of the many success stories of the students who have participated in the program since 2003:
Meet the 2013 Students:
Brianna Brennan is a Broadcast Production student at Washington State University in Pullman, WA and has spent the last three years working with the student run television station Cable 8 Productions.

Her long-term goal is to direct a live studio show.
Kayla Griffin is a senior studying broadcast production at the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication at Washington State University. She is currently employed as a production technician at KWSU and has produced and directed shows for the school's student run television station Cable 8 Productions. Kayla is interested in live studio productions as well as post production.
Malia Jurick is a broadcast production student at the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication at Washington State University. She has directed and produced shows at Cable 8, for the past three years. Last summer she worked as a production assistant on Top Chef Seattle. Malia is very interested in post-production work and her long term goal is to be an editor for a scripted show.
Spencer Kabelac is a multimedia production student at Washington State University and currently serves as President and General Manager of Cable 8 Productions, a student-run television station. Last summer Spencer worked as a production assistant on season 10 of Top Chef in and got first-hand experience on set of a reality television show.

A first-year head coach who was a standout receiver at Tulsa and briefly flirted with a career in the NFL, Brennan Marion brings a heavy dose of excitement to the Waynesboro gridiron. Just 26 years old, Marion's enthusiasm and confidence could be exactly what this kind of program needs. A closer look at the Indians:
School name: Waynesboro
Head coach: Brennan Marion
Last year: 0-10, 0-7 in Mid-Penn Colonial
Last 5 years: 10-40
Returning starters: 2 on offense, 1 on defense
Key players: DE Trevor Biller; C-DT Tyrell White; RB-SS Justin Marion; CB Todd Riddell; QB Connor Fetterhoff; RB Jake Wertz; WR Matt Peck; RT Brock Parson; MLB Forrest Rhyne; SS Dakota Rhyne; RB Aiden Smith; LT Josh Sims; DL Kody Brown; DE Bradley Lark; FS Brandon Baer; MLB Patrick Wade.
Offensive overview: As a standout wide receiver at Tulsa, Marion, a Greensburg, Pa., native, was a game-breaker, the kind of guy who could take the ball 95 yards to paydirt. He played under current Auburn head coach when he was at Tulsa, and Marion owns that same mindset: Spread it out, share the ball, compile tons of yardage and points. Remains to be seen how well that will work at the 'Boro, but it's exciting nonetheless. Justin Marion, coach's younger brother, and Peck are the marquee talents, but everybody will be involved. Fetterhoff is a quality athlete at QB, too.
Defensive overview: Another interesting setup, as Marion says they'll employ a 4-2-5 "Roll Tide" style formation. With more than 80 players out for this year's team, which strikes us as a lot for a Waynesboro team that hasn't exactly enjoyed a winning tradition. And some of these boys are big. Marion says "the defensive line is the same size as most of your favorite teams in college." Says they're athletic, too, like the 6-5, 275-pound Biller, or White, who's drawing Patriot League interest. Defensive backs are aggressive as well, with the younger Marion and Riddell leading the way.
Biggest game: Sept. 26 at Northern. It's the Indians' first league game and first chance to take a legitimate step forward in the Colonial.
More Waynesboro Indians: 2014 schedule | 2014 roster
MORROW'S CRYSTAL BALL: We're impressed by the participation numbers. We love Marion's confidence and enthusiasm. When any "underdog" football zone -- and Waynesboro is as underdog a football zone as you can get in the Mid-Penn -- finds some fire, it picks everybody up. But this was still a zero-win team last year. So while there's nowhere to go but up, we're not expecting miracles.

Happy Memorial Day!
I shared this photo on Instagram and Facebook the other day. This is how the Weekly Meal Plan grocery lists look now that they're color coded. Happy!
I didn't shop until Monday, because I was in Disney World for a conference last weekend. I printed the Slow Cooker plan for this week.
And then, I never used a slow cooker during the week at all! I find that I do a lot of improvising and changing things with the meal plans. But it is so much easier to do that when I've shopped with a list and have a plan of what to fix.
Here's how I made it work this week:
Monday was shopping day. By the time I got home with the groceries, it was too late to make anything in the slow cooker. The plan had "Pork with Chinese Sauce, stir fry veggies and rice" for one night. I decided to use chicken tenders instead of pork and cook it on top of the stove in a skillet instead of the slow cooker. Quick and easy.
It was a beautiful evening for backyard games.
On Tuesday, I meant to put Slow Cooker Meatballs on to cook in the morning, but forgot all about it. I decided to bake the meatballs in the oven instead. Dinner was spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread and salad.
Tuesday afternoon, I took Meredith wedding dress shopping. We were really just scouting things out until she gets back from her summer in China. She wanted to get an idea of what's out there for dresses, but she ended up finding a dress she liked. It needs significant alterations, so those will be done when she gets home in August.
Wednesday, I failed to load up the crockpot again. I'm the most distracted person ever! I got busy working on other things and looked up at 5pm and realized the boys would be leaving soon for youth group. They leave at the same time every week, and every week it takes me by surprise. I was going to make one of our favorite 15 minute meals, but it has no meat and the boys balked at that. So I fixed Southwest Chicken and rice instead. Not on the plan, but I had all the ingredients and it was a quick fix.
Thursday, I planned to load up the slow cooker with ingredients for African Pulled Beef Sandwiches. I forgot. Again! Instead, I made a quick dinner of Tony's Tilapia, cauliflower and cream cheese smashed potatoes.
I was a bit frustrated over an issue with one of the kids while I was make dinner. I might have gotten carried away with the Cajun seasoning in the heat of the moment. The fish was a little spicy!
It's now Friday (I'm writing this post a few days early), and we've got plans to eat out with friends. The kids are staying home and having hot dogs, while the adults go out. Oh the joys of having older kids!
Sometime over the weekend, I'm determined to fix some of the other slow cooker meals on the menu this week. Saturday will be a perfect day for the African Pulled Beef Sandwiches. Jim is planning to ride in a long bike ride and he'll be hungry afterward. And I've got several recipes to create and photograph for a client, so a slow cooker meal will come in handy.
I'd love to know how you improvise your meal plans. Leave me a comment and let me know how it works (or maybe, doesn't work!) for you.
Here's a sneak peek at this week's meal plans. You can find out more about how to get them delivered to your inbox by clicking here.

Jane Savoie Olympic Dressage Coach for Canadian Eventing Team
Dressage Press Release

Corrupt and kinky cops. Planted evidence and frame-ups. Officers having sex on the hood of a police cruiser.
This is the Charleston Police Department as viewed through the lens of "Reckless," a new CBS legal drama now filming in the Holy City that will debut as early as November.
The show plays on the relationship between a Southern gentleman attorney, played by Cam Gigandet, and a Yankee litigator, played by Anna Wood, against the backdrop of a police sex scandal.
Producers promised a steamy, "taboo-busting" series, and it appears that's what they've delivered in a script for the show's pilot obtained by The Post and Courier.
The story begins with a police traffic stop that turns into a sex romp, then dives into a host of other unethical conduct. From cocaine planted in a lawyer's car to a group of randy cops taking advantage of a drugged female colleague, it's abundantly clear these aren't your Officer Friendly types.
"I don't got no faith in me taking on the Charleston P.D.," a woman tells Wood's character after confiding that a police officer is pressuring her to "do things."
The story is pure fiction, but the script has raised some eyebrows at Charleston City Hall, which is always sensitive to the way the tourism-dependent city is portrayed in print and on screen. The image of its police department as a crooked, backwater cop shop filled with sex-starved officers with questionable morals doesn't sit well with Charleston Police Chief Greg Mullen or Mayor Joe Riley.
"If that ends up being the show, that would be very unfortunate and nothing that we had reason to expect when we met with (the producers) quite early this year or late last year," Riley said.
CBS Television Studios released the following statement in response to requests from the newspaper for comment:
"RECKLESS" is a fictionalized legal drama set in Charleston that will be broadcast fully within the boundaries of all broadcast standards. We had a great time filming the pilot in the city and look forward to shooting the entire first season there over the next several months, showcasing Charleston's many charms and delivering a very positive economic impact to the surrounding area."
Script concerns
Mullen said he understands the show's economic potential for the region and the producers' desire to tell a compelling story. He just doesn't want to see that done at the police department's expense.
"I don't want to be accused of trying to censor anybody, but it's also my responsibility and my passion to protect the image of this police department," Mullen said.
Mullen said he met with the show's producers in the spring and expressed his hope that "Reckless" would not "create an image of the department that is negative and makes us look like criminals with badges."
"They assured me that is not going to be the case," he said.
City officials asked to see the pilot before it aired, but they were told that CBS would not allow that, Mullen said.
Riley said he hasn't read the script, but he did meet with show's producer, Ian Sander, to "communicate the importance of the department's image and the city's image."
The police department, which has more than 400 officers, is nationally accredited, employs a strict honor code and has overseen a more than 50 percent reduction in violent crime since 2007, city officials said.
The department has had occasional misconduct cases, including a 2010 incident in which an officer resigned while being investigated for having sex in uniform with a waitress on his cruiser in the City Market area. But the agency's accolades have far exceeded its blemishes in recent years, keeping the peace in a city that has received national and international honors, including a recent nod from Conde Nast magazine as the friendliest city in America.
"The city of Charleston police department, I believe, is the best in the country, and I mean that sincerely, and I believe Chief Mullen is the best in the country," Riley said.
Riley said CBS agreed to place a disclaimer at the start of "Reckless" making it clear that the show is not based on actual people or events. Sander also agreed to attend a police promotion ceremony and a graduation event for the department's Camp Hope mentoring program for kids "to understand the quality of our department and why this is important to us," he said.
Mullen said the show does not have permission to use the city seal or the Charleston Police Department's insignia and patches on the uniforms and vehicles used by faux officers.
A letter signed "Concerned Citizens" accompanied the copy of the script that was delivered to The Post and Courier.
The letter accused "Reckless" of trying to "depict our City as corrupt and racist, and suggests that our justice system can be manipulated through obscene, sexual relationships."
It also questioned whether the sexual material contained in the pilot violates the "obscenity" provision in the S.C. Film Incentive Law, which bars the use of taxpayer money from funding projects that contain content that the U.S. Supreme Court would consider obscene.
Preliminary estimates call for the "Reckless" production to spend about $31.3 million in South Carolina for technicians, actors, extras, lodging and supplies. Under South Carolina law, they would get about $7.5 million back in the form of wage and supplier rebates from the state, according to Marion Edmonds, spokesman for the state Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism.
Edmonds said that "no money goes out until actual expenditures are documented and audited."
Edmonds said he has not seen the pilot's script, but he had serious doubts that CBS, known to some in the business as the Tiffany Network, would consider broadcasting anything that would violate South Carolina's obscenity provision.
"They are not about to let anything go out that would run the risk of being classified as obscene content," he said. "I don't believe there is anything in this production that would fall into this category."
With millions of dollars in potential expenditures at stake, "Reckless" appears to be an economic boon for the state, Edmonds said. He said he also suspects that viewers are sophisticated enough to draw distinctions between fictional Charleston and the real deal, much as they did with "Miami Vice" in the 1980s.
If city and state officials are displeased with the way Charleston is depicted, the state is under no obligation to support the show in future seasons, provided "Reckless" lasts that long, Edmonds said. But he suspects "Reckless" will include plenty of shots that highlight Charleston's status as "the biggest historical jewel in the nation" and boost tourism in the process, he said.
Mullen said he too hopes the show will be a boon for the region, but police will be watching closely to make sure the department's image isn't tarnished in the process.
"I feel like the producer understands our concerns," he said. "He assured me they are not going to embarrass the city or the police department. We will have to wait and see how that develops."

Reeling them in
For years, South Carolina lagged behind neighboring states when it came to attracting film production. Its incentives program offered cash rebates but at a rate significantly lower — 15 percent — than the tax credits and other incentives available in Georgia, North Carolina, Louisiana and elsewhere.
That all changed in May when the latest effort by film industry lobbyists succeeded in persuading the state Legislature to bolster the incentive program. The program is administered by the S.C. Film Commission, which is part of the Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism.
The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Paul Campbell, R-Goose Creek, and Rep. Phyllis Henderson, R-Greer, increased rebates received for purchases of supplies from South Carolina vendors from 15 percent to a maximum of 30 percent.
Rebates for wages paid by in-state companies increased from 15 percent to as much as 25 percent, and up to 20 percent for out-of-state companies.
The new incentive program did not increase the Film Commission's budget; it continues to receive $10 million annually from the Department of Revenue for rebate disbursement, plus a percentage of the entertainment tax collected by the state, which amounts to another $5 million or so.
Richard Futch, president of the Carolina Film Alliance, said the TV show "Reckless," shot in Charleston, is a good example of what happens when the state offers attractive cash rebates for film production.
"It's a great incentive for them to be here and get the higher rebates as opposed to the 15 percent across-the-board they were getting before," Futch said. "We're competitive with just about every other state."
South Carolina now might even have a slight edge because it offers rebates and not tax credits, which can cost money to redeem. "You get the whole dollar back," he said.
In recent years, the high-water mark for film production in the state came in 2007 when seven productions set up shop here. Since then, production has dropped. Just one company, Touchstone Television Productions, which makes "Army Wives," was eligible for rebates in 2011 ($5 million) and 2012 ($9 million), according to the state film commission.
It's too early to know the impact of the recent incentives increase, Futch said. Production companies plan many months in advance, but the queries are starting to come in.

KIEV, Ukraine -- Russia's parliament approved a motion to use the country's military in Ukraine after a request from President Vladimir Putin as protests in Russian-speaking cities turned violent Saturday, sparking fears of a wide-scale invasion.
The motion follows President Barack Obama's warning Friday "there will be costs" if Russia intervenes militarily, sharply raising the stakes in the conflict over Ukraine's future and evoking memories of Cold War brinkmanship.
"I'm submitting a request for using the armed forces of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine pending the normalization of the socio-political situation in that country," Putin said in his request sent to parliament.

Russia's upper house also recommended that Moscow recalls its ambassador from Washington over Obama's comments.
Ukraine had already accused Russia on Friday of a "military invasion and occupation" in the strategic peninsula of Crimea where Russia's Black Sea fleet is based. Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk called on Moscow "to recall their forces, and to return them to their stations," according to the Interfax news agency. "Russian partners, stop provoking civil and military resistance in Ukraine."
The crisis was sparked when Ukraine's deposed president, Victor Yanukovych, ditched a deal for closer ties to the European Union and instead turned toward Moscow. Months of protests followed, culminating in security forces killing dozens of protesters and Yanukovych fleeing to Russia.
Ignoring Obama's warning, Putin said the "extraordinary situation in Ukraine" was putting at risk the lives of Russian citizens and military personnel stationed at a naval base that Moscow has maintained in the Black Sea peninsula since the Soviet collapse.
