Be under no illusion - it'll most certainly show up in a standard search on the PNC. I doubt it, just because something isn't disclosed doesn't mean it's not there. Depends very much on the force involved etc.

Incorrect. All arrests, convictions, non-convictions, etc going back to day dot. There is even reference to microfiche records.

Bit of a moot point as TfL don't have any say over where they are ranked on Google nor it's content in general. I appreciate that the there is a duff link on the visitor shop site but it's probably likely that no one's told them...

And that the trains actually turn up now :p

That was what my comment intended to say. Something stated corporately by TfL holds fair weight compared to the buffoon...
