Wormwood Scrubs
Second in a series of two documentaries about Britain's Notorious Prisons.
Past inmates and staff speak exclusively to ITV exposing how London's Wormwood Scrubs became one of the UK's most notorious jails.
The jail has housed some of the country's most famous inmates, from Rolling Stone Keith Richards to pop star Pete Doherty, whose jail term was mired in controversy after a secretly taken photograph of him reportedly taking drugs on the prison's detox wing appeared on the front page of The Sun.
From drug smuggling to mental health issues, the programme looks into the key issues Wormwood Scrubs faces on a day to day basis.
Many of London's major criminals have spent time in the Scrubs - including the Krays - whilst the prison has also housed some of the nation's most dangerous serial killers, including the Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe and Donald Neilson the Black Panther.
The jail has also been notorious for its levels of violence. As with other prisons that serve the local courts, a volatile mix of prisoners can be stirred up by an unpredictable daily intake.
