    Lennie James stars in this hard-hitting drama about the daily struggle for survival in HMP Mandrake, a men's prison. Lee Kingley has been sentence to ten years for a firearms offence and grievous bodily harm. The truth is, he was protecting a member of his family from a violent criminal. When his appeal is turned down, he manifests his anger by getting ejected from the drugs-free unit and transferred to the main prison, HMP Mandrake. The prison staff and his fellow inmates prove a different battleground as Lee continues to fight to prove his innocence. Uncompromising and grim, this award-winning drama compellingly presents the brutal reality of the British prison system. From friendship, jealousy, threats and stabbings to sexual assault and suicide, all prison life is here, at it's most extreme. Created by Jimmy Gardner, Robert Jones and Kath Mattock who collaborated on the BAFTA-winning BBC series The Cops, Directed by BAFTA winner Morag McKinnon (Home), Starring Lennie James, Stephen Walters (Layer Cake), Connor McIntyre (Coronation Street) and Jane Hazlegrove (Casualty).

    Blackwall Fire Station's Blue Watch takes to the streets again in the highly-popular drama series of the 80s and early 90s.

  • Threads [1984]Threads | DVD | (10/07/2000) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

    Hideously plausible when first broadcast in 1984, this BBC TV docu-drama now seems like a terrifying might-have-been, although a great deal of what it says about the probable aftermath of a nuclear attack remains horribly pertinent. Scripted by Barry Hines (author of the novel on which Ken Loach's Kes was based) and directed by Mick Jackson (who later went to Hollywood with The Bodyguard and Volcano), at the time Threads seemed like a response to the American TV movie The Day After although it stands nobly on its own. Showing the after-effects of World War III on the United Kingdom by concentrating on two Sheffield families linked by an unplanned pregnancy, it illustrates the scientific, political, medical and social consequences of the severing of the many vital connective "threads" that support a Western society. Grim in a particularly 1980s way, this is a compulsive if uncomfortable watch and accomplishes a great deal without the distraction of spectacle, picking through all the melted milk bottles and firing squad traffic wardens to find the human horror at the heart of it all. --Kim Newman
