I was here in 1976 doing 3months detention centre. My cell was on West wing and I worked with the civilian prison painters, cushy job. We were woken at 6am and marched off to the gym to do circuit training before breakfast. It was the long hot summer and a totally shit time was had by all.
I was in there 1980 do you remember green cross code man mr Harrison devaneys sidekick he was in office in gym taking your name giving u dos and don't he punched because I was in 4 burglary I did 6 weeks and a break lol we use to say how long left mate and you blow your hand and count fingers as days left and your little finger was the break so funny
@@exposeandeducate Hello mate,all i can say about it was the cowardly screws who would unlock you in the middle of the night and make you do bunny hops down the corridor were scum.There was one particular screw got great pleasure in slapping us around the face,his name was Devaney,a PTI,proper coward who would never have got away with it in an adult nick. Only good thing about it was the circuit training,i came out fit as an olympic athlete 🤣.ps I was only out 7 days so it wasnt much of a deterent.
@@shaunmufc58 Glad you got through it okay buddy. Happy to share any stories you have when I film there again leaving your name out of it of course. Would love to hear more if its not too painful a memory
I spent 6 months in there , after being framed from a violent ex , I was denied my insulin for a week , I nearly died ,then I broke my ankle n denied medical care for 5 months , I nearly lost my foot thanks to eastwood park
They gave me medication that I was allergic to (& they knew I was) & I got really ill and they refused to send me to hospital! (Obv to cover their negligence!)

Thanks for sharing Kevin. I did not know it used to be a detention centre.
I am sure you have turned life around from that crap Summer.
I done 2 DC's before I left school in 1975 and the summer of 76 was one of the hottest on record sorry mate 🏴🍻
Are you the Kev Sherwood from Dorset who ripped off the elderly?

Unfortunately yes Spacey. We really need to look at prison reform properly in this country. Thanks for commenting
Yes I've been here many year's ago.
