Yes the phone footage was quite eye watering........
In The Know
I shall never look at a mobile phone in quite the same way again - and I certainly WON'T touch one !
The Fat Controller
The best prison documentary I've seen.

Fantastic staff - some very needy people are being locked up.
A very interesting programme and very sad to see one person die though at least they saved the other suicide attempt.
The older woman officer was brilliant in looking after the 22 year old self harmer. She told it like it is and obviously got through to him.

Thank heavens it showed how the majority of prison officers - I'd say 80% - are really decent people and unsung heroes.
I've seen almost every scene myself several times.
And so much for the dim tabloid writers who call it a holiday camp.
Doh!
