Fly-on-wallTV blamed for Faliraki louts.

A BRITISH policeman visiting Greece to help tackle binge drinking problems yesterday blamed a fly- on the -wall TV documentary for an increase in drunken behaviour at the Greek resort of Faliraki.

Blackpool-based officers Superintendent Andy Rhodes and Inspector John Donnelly flew to the holiday island of Rhodes to liaise with Greek authorities after a British man was stabbed to death in a bar brawl and a woman jailed for baring her breasts.

Mr Rhodes, 38, said the documentary, Club Reps, had signal led to young people that ``they could come to Faliraki and do what they want.

``It has increased trade but brought a problem in terms of standards of behaviour,''he said.''

The Lancashire officers met with Chief of Faliraki police, Captain Them is Kalamatas, to discuss operation Nightsafe, launched in Blackpool earlier this year, which has curbed loutish behaviour.

Mr Rhodes said the key to tackling problems is stopping the ``aggressive marketing of drinks promotions'' and bar crawls.
