Panorama - Taking Back The Streets

Panarama investigates the rise of armed teenage street gangs and discovers how shockingly ingrained the culture of guns and violence is in Britain. Parents speak about their children being dragged into gang culture and how turf wars are devastating their communities. Also featured are old-school gangsters, themselves shocked by the new levels of casual violence, including one who is trying to turn kids away from guns. Panorama follows the latest police efforts to stem gun culture, going on patrol with Merseyside Police's elite anti-gun and gangs unit, the Matrix Squad, and comes face to face with the young gunmen themselves.
