Better than its reputation would suggest.

Young lad Billy is identified as the man responsible for attacking innocent man John Kerr.

Definitely some choice language here, the reason this episode comes with a content warning. A word here that hopefully is a thing of the past.

I think the rating of 5.0 is pretty harsh for this one, I was expecting an episode along the lines of the awful Party Politics, but it's not, it's actually a pretty good one. As it stands, out of 2404 episodes, this is bottom of the pile....why?

Does it have the low score for the racist content? Other episodes have similar storylines, but none of the others feature Russell Brand, he's such a divisive figure, but he's no different to any other youngster that appeared on the show, I'm not a big fan of his, but he does a decent job here.

Claire Benedict and Anna Keaveney are both pretty good here.

It's gritty, the content is upsetting, but it's a good, strong story, 8/10.
