Retake 6: Confined To Art

Gary Mansfield, ‘The Artful Dodger’ from episode 18 on this week's retake, agreed to transport, what he thought, was fake designer clothes labels, which actually turned out to be 4.2 million worth of class A drugs! He received a 14 year sentence in prison, and behind bars found solace through art. Gary shares with us his cathartic experience in surviving prison’s challenges, determined to change his life.

Om Podcasten

Award Winning Second Chance is a podcast series that explores the theme of second chance. It raises the questions who deserves a second chance, who decides who gets a second chance and what a second chance actually means. On this podcast we speak to people from all walks of life about their experiences, some who have been given a second chance in life, some who might be considered to be beyond deserving a second chance. The host of the podcast series is Raphael Rowe, host of the critically acclaimed series ‘Inside the World's Toughest Prisons’ on Netflix. He is also a former correspondent for the world's longest running BBC TV current affairs show Panorama the BBC Radio 4 Today programme as well as a regular contributor on The One Show and Sunday Morning Live on BBC One. In 1988, aged 20, he was sentenced to life imprisonment for a murder and robbery he did not commit. In July 2000, after 12 years in prison, the Court of Appeal quashed his wrongful convictions and he was freed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
