silent witness

[dustinmyeye]

did anyone watch this on tuesday and wednesday nights?
i found it quite frightening and hard to watch actually.
it really made you think about what some people have to contend with in their lives.
it was about young gangs in london,stabbings,shootings etc

I watched is dustinmyeye. I thought it was very good and very true to life. It's sad that some people are born into a world like that and it seems like its a vicious circle that is very difficult to get out of. It was frightening as you say.

yes, agree and particularly poignant when they were handing over some boots to another young kid at the end so the whole vicious circle was still going on and nothing had changed in spite of all that had happened.

I watched it and found the intensity of the police work a better idea of the reality thatn in NCIS et al, the way the Samalians were depicted was horrific, they seemed so cold blooded, but so did the rival gang. It was harrowing, expecially as there were so many similarities to the death of Damilola Taylor.

If it was about the black lad & the rotty....I was disgusted that the case was dropped due to 'lack of evidence'. The community will learn to co-operate more with the police if they want cases penalised.
