Coming soon: all new Secret Life of Prisons

The Secret Life of Prisons is returning, featuring stories from behind bars.  Ahead of our new series, we'll be releasing a two-part deep-dive documentary, 25 Days In April, telling the story of the longest prison disturbance in British history - the Strangeways riots of 1990. Part one, released on Thursday 10 September, will go through the events of April 1990, with vivid archive recordings from the site. Part two, released on Thursday 17 September, will expand on what's happened in the 30 years since Strangeways. Subscribe to this feed to hear this, and more from the Secret Life of Prisons.
