On the Ropes - Ashley Walters

John Humphrys talks to successful people who have weathered storms in their careers. His guest is actor Ashley Walters, who was jailed for possessing a gun when known as Asher D of So Solid Crew. During his seven months in a young offenders' unit he took a hard look at his life. He became reconciled with his father before he died and reverted to acting. The film Bullet Boy, which mirrored many of his own experiences, won him Most Promising Newcomer at the British Independent Film Awards in 2004.
