How?
He saved up his meds,
took them all in one go.
You been in prison before?
No.
Difficult.
Yeah.
What do you do on the outside?
I'm a teacher.
Or was a teacher, yeah.
Oh, Mark, you could be
the answer to my prayers.
Stop there.
Come on, in you go.
Hi, Mark. Welcome.
- Hello.
- Come on in.
Do you want to take a seat?
- Yeah.
- Yep.
Come on, lads.
Welcome. Come on in, everybody.
Just take a seat, grab a seat.
Yeah.
What's happening, lad?
OK, first things first, we've got
a couple of new faces with us today.
You all right?
Hiya. You all right?
Mark's a teacher, and he's
promised to sort you lot out.
Everyone is going to be sharing
some of their experiences.
Daniel's going to start us off
by telling us how he ended up here.
Daniel?
Erm, well, I k*lled someone in a fight.
Another young man?
Could you say a bit more?
Sorry, I don't know if I can, you know.
- I know I said I would, but
- It's OK.
- Yeah.
- It's OK, no worries.
Can we go to you, Barry?
It's Baz, Miss.
Oh, sorry, Baz.
Baz has been injured recently
and has agreed to tell us about it.
Yeah, erm,
well, I got a shorter sentence
than these lads I was up with,
which made some people
think I'm a grass,
and I'm not.
See, these kids, like, what they did is,
they, like, boiled a kettle
and poured all the sugar in
so it'd stick to me flesh
and then, like, chucked it in me face.
The thing is, like, I know
who they are who did it, yeah,
but they did it because they
thought I was a grass so
the last thing I want
to do is grass them up
and prove them right, innit?
So now I'm hoping that they think
that this is enough and that they,
erm, that they leave me alone.
Like, I'm I'm only telling you
all this because, you know, like,
these are the types of
things that can happen
while you're doing jug,
so, I mean, stay out
of jail and that, kids.
That's it, Miss.
Thanks, Baz.
