The Strangeways one was fascinating , this is scary. The behaviour is just shocking.

Started watching it as I used to live near there but it was so appalling I have turned over to watch the penguins - much more civilised! Smile

I don't know much about prison but do the officers have less 'power' in a YOI?

I am as not far from where I live and one of my DD2's mums works there. Watching with DD2 (nearly 12) and she said 'I want to be one of those'! I think she meant prison warder Confused

Not watching it, but currently considering deleting a friend on Facebook due to the frequent updates about how her DH is giving up 2/3 of his salary to give these people a pool table and an education... etc etc

It's frightening isn't it? The sheer rage and simmering violence. I can't imagine working in that environment.

How do these young men become so damaged? Sad

In some ways I am quite glad I didn't complete my application to teach in a YOI but in others I think I would do far better good there than in my current employment.

David Charlton was a very disturbed man (he went to school with some of my friends) but provided some TV Gold.
"Good morning David how are you?"
"Fuck off"
