Former detective Rod Carter reveals how a spate of more than 50 murders have emerged from a gang rivalry in Manchester that began over a borrowed leather jacket, exploring the tiny area of the city that has played host to many of the deaths.

The programme finds out how the narcotics trade put Liverpool on the criminal map, and meets a man who made - and lost - his fortune there. Another man reveals how he was one of the first to rob other criminals of their ill-gotten gains, and used his propensity for violence to make sure he always got the upper hand.
