Vince W Being at work I've not seen any of this, mind you, having Nick Knowles as host would have put me off it straight away!
Anyway, my point is maybe the Beeb had to not cover all the plus points of being in prison in order to put people off crime (even the ones they didn't commit?)
JK2006 now it's finished some comments from an experienced ex inmate.
They covered most of the areas but without any great insight.
Perhaps making it all seem so boring was an accurate flavour of prison life.
But actually prison life can be fascinating, funny, exciting, stimulating and challenging.
I suppose it depends who's looking.
We - the viewers - see it through the presenter's eyes and mind.
And Nick Knowles is AWFUL - clueless, muddled, confused, not enquiring.
Nadia Sahala is far better and more sympathetic but not exactly intellectually inquisitive.
I fear viewers will have learned very little; there are far better programmes to be made and they are NOT Bad Girls!
