[Hot Fuzz] What happens after?

Following the events of the film, how do Nicholas and Danny go about rebuilding Sanford given the sheer number of incarcerated or killed members of the town, many in important positions?
 

How does Britain as a whole respond to the existence of a death cult in rural England? 

 

And perhaps most importantly, does Sanford ever win the Village of the Year award?

The rebuilding process is going to take years; pretty much every local institution save the police has suffered massive hits via murders or arrests. Eventually people will move in to fill the vacuum, though some otherwise imminently qualified candidates will be scared off by Sanford's new reputation as the cult murder capital of rural Britain. The people who first take on those positions may be undesirable in some ways; less experienced/qualified then the people they replace, somehow less employable in nicer areas, and so on. That said, whoever they get likely is going to be at least basically competent.

Sanford is a front-page item for a brief time, but the national news has bigger fish to fry. The Chief Inspector of the London Met and his cronies were trying to be coy at the end, but the situation on the ground in the city must have become absolutely horrible. Considering how brutal they were to Angel when kicking him out, trying to bring him back smacks of a desperation move. And the city was already "crackheads with kalashnikovs" and "stab happy hobo Santa" level bad while Angel was still working the beat.

It will likely be several years before Sanford is a proper VOTY candidate again. Once the town has a chance to find a new status quo, it may have a chance. Spoilers for The World's End below...

>! Worst case scenario, they're probably a lock for VOTY after the societal collapse caused by the withdrawal of the Network. With Inspector Angel at the helm, they probably weather the collapse of technology better than average, especially if the post-NWA house-cleaning reveals more stockpiles like the one at Webley's Farm.
