    BBC making things worse giving wee neds publicity for bad behaviour. How about showing some positive role models, entrepreneurs, people who've made something of themselves or at least people who give back to the community in some way.

    I do not thing that graffiti is a good memorial for the Grant the one was enough and it looked good the rest is just vandalism making the area look terrible. That is upsetting for people living there. Causing a riot and ruining the city is just destroying everything and causing upset for the people living there if you did this you are an idiot. Making bad life choices and not thinking about anyone else. Wondering if the police even showed up because they do not come out these days. I feel sorry for the decent people who live in that area

    Looks quite peaceful for Kirkton, Only kids on Bikes etc. Trying to make it look like it has a comparison to Gangs is quite daft. Unless you consider the Students of St. Paul's every weekday rampaging through the streets as a ''gang'' lol. Figured we left this nonsense behind, a documentary should be highlighting how the city has no youth projects or other alternatives that the government could introduce especially within Kirkton. However shown here it is just like ohh, Here we ride bikes and act daft. Overall, quite disappointing truly.

    Ain't that bad. Could easily walk through Kirkton at night and get zero problems. Kids on bikes and tiny fires on the road, not a big deal. Used to be way worse 20 years ago or so. Especially with Fintry, Mill o Mains etc.

      Whitfield's alright these days, but Kirkton's always been rough. Council can throw millions at a museum but not enough to stop the junkies making certain schemes no-go zones at night?
