Jailed for a Knife

Synopsis
At least 34 teenagers were stabbed to death UK during 2008. In just a decade, the number sentenced for carrying a knife has risen ten-fold. In this programme, Panorama’s Raphael Rowe goes inside prisons to gain access to those responsible. Jailed for a Knife provides a thoughtful insight into the lives and minds of those at the centre of a highly-charged debate.
