Have started watching this as I missed it when first shown.
I'm ashamed at being British if the story is true. I can feel the frustration of the black people accused of crimes. The pompous attitude of the judge and the lies of the police made me cringe and very angry!!!!

Haven't heard of this but the previous Small Axe series was very good.

I think there is a need to give people a different perspective on what it feels like to be judged by the colour of your skin.

What channel is it on?

Sorry- didn't realise which episode is the Mangrove one? Maybe I should have taken more notice of the titles!
