After a tip off from the public, police stopped a vehicle on Friday night and found a quantity of crystal methamphetamine (or ice).

The female driver was charged with alleged supply and distribution and appeared before Dubbo Local Court on Saturday where she was granted bail.

A day after Wellington made national news for its drug problem, filming of this arrest took place for another ABC documentary about ice in Wellington, but this time for all the right reasons.

If anything, its message is positive, according to police film supervisor Sergeant Gerry Moriarty who works with the Police Media Unit (for film and television media).

"The problem is in every country town. I don't know why they are focusing on this community," he said.

In fact, if there's any message he wants to get out there, it's that ice doesn't discriminate, affecting many communities as well as kids and even 80 year olds.

Australian Idol star Kate DeAraugo was one of the people he had arrested and to this day he couldn't understand why people got involved with drugs.

"She is rich, smart and famous," he said.

"What makes kids do it for the first time? I wouldn't do it; every headline is about ice."

While Wellington has been dubbed "little Antarctica" in the past, it attracted the media unit's attention for a completely different reason, and that was the Gungie Origin program which works on tackling the ice problem through inclusion, reduction of crime and community.

"In Nowra, they just lock them up, here it's [about] working with the community," he said.

NSW Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione has fully-endorsed the documentary, The Tip of the Iceberg, which will air early next year in eight 30-minute episodes, covering everything from the correctional centre to undercover work, clan labs and cold cases. The star of the show, however will be Gungie Origin and the town's latest initiatives to beat the drug.

Filming has begun around town and will include the town meeting today with Anthony Mundine and members of the Manly Sea Eagles, who have joined forces with the town.

"When someone does a massive cook of 100kgs, that's got to end up somewhere and that somewhere is small towns; little communities," Sergeant Moriarty said.

"What perked my interest was that no one was doing what Zeke Shaw [creator of Gungie Origin] was doing. I have never seen a bloke so passionate."

It's that sort of passion in the community that Sergeant Moriarty wants the nation to see when the show airs next year.

"I want the film to have a positive message. There is a problem in Wellington, but there are a lot of positives coming out of it," he concluded.
