BBC One - Panorama, Jailed for a Knife

Raphael Rowe goes inside prisons to interview young offenders convicted of knife crimes.

Raphael Rowe goes inside prisons to gain rare access to the young offenders convicted of carrying, using or even killing with a knife.

At least 34 teenagers were stabbed to death last year in the UK. In just a decade, the number sentenced for carrying a knife has risen ten-fold. So why are so many of Britain's youngsters arming themselves with knives? And why do some kill?

Panorama's Raphael Rowe goes inside prisons to gain rare access to those responsible - the young offenders convicted of carrying, using or even killing with a knife. Interviewing them in their cells, the programme provides a thoughtful and sobering insight into the lives and minds of those at the centre of a highly-charged national debate.
