Strangeways

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A series of eight programmes
5 The Allegation
Ian is a prisoner on Dl, Strangeways' punishment landing. It is a place of tension and confrontation, where incidents are commonplace. One such incident occurred which resulted in Ian making an allegation of brutality against a prison officer.
There must be an enquiry. Who is telling the truth? Did the officer strike Ian in his cell, or is it a fabrication?
In the closed and secret world of prison, justice is dispensed with no lawyers and no jury. And if the decision goes against Ian he stands to lose all his remission and spend a further six months in gaol.
