Using lots of personal opinions at times without actual evidence. All seem to want to outdo eachother to feed their own egos.
No.

The girlfriend at the beginning of episode 1 when she was 1st interviewed said he sold 2 grades of weed. Normal weed and Pharmaceutical grade from California. Keep up at the back old bean
?? she also said he made 2k per week. It doesn't mean he did old bean. It wasn't medical grade from california, it was average orange bud put in little containers to sell to idiots to get an extra tenner a gram.
I never said it was medical weed my dearest and oldest bean, I said it appeared to be that, and therefore would have been sold at that price as you confirmed yourself above, an extra £10 on the gram as you say. 'making £2k a week' for people like this means sales of £2k a week which is not hard. I doubt they are talking about EBITDA or even net revenue.

Go on then - what do you want to happen to them instead, let me guess, 'an eye for an eye'

Not actually knowing who stabbed him, was this a case of joint enterprise? getmecoat
Yeah, they just st themselves when it came down to actually getting caught for it and blamed each other. It was all over a few hundres quids worth of weed he had ticked and not paid for quick enough. An utter waste of life for the 3 of them. He is dead and the other 2 are spending 20 years plus in prison.

Good to see these two wannabe gangsta scrotes put away for a very long time. Their lives ruined.

Just bloody legalise it and save everyone the horror.

Yes there are other drugs which would still drive criminality, but a more progressive drugs policy would save lives, and an awful lot of expense and police time.

This programme is horribly depressing yet addictive.

Unfortunately plenty more billy big time scrotes like this in every market town (and indeed big city) in the UK. Soon as stab someone for looking at them funny.
Was it purely about the money or more about the rep and not appearing "weak" to rival dealers?

The cheek of that prepared statement from Jordan's solicitor! How dare you interview the suspects separately and not allow them to collaborate over their stories!

I reckon he was knobbing his missus. The one who lied through her teeth every time she opened her mouth.

Was the memorial picture of Sam strictly necessary ?

He was hardly an innocent victim of a random attack, a drug dealing piece of st killed by jealous rivals if truth be told.

That's what I thought, on a different day it could have been Sam and Jordan shanking the other one. Live by the sword and all that.

Exactly, he often carried a firearm she admitted, probably replica but not for shooting tin cans purely for protection and frightening people.

I felt for the victims mother. Losing a child is awful but at least she wasn't looking to shirk all responsibility.

I don't think legislation will solve the issue of weed dealing. The black market still thrives in Canada and parts of the US I believe.

Good to see decent sentences given to these 2 though.

Yeah this is all about you mate...
Whether it is about me or not. Do you think that we have a good result?

Two years ago (or whenever it was) we had three young men getting with their, rather illegal, lives, we now have one dead and two sentenced to more than twenty years in jail. I consider that to be seriously bad news.

Is the Great British Public supposed to be pleased that they are locked away?

Crying for his mammy and singing like the proverbial canary! Was this the same big-mouth threatening to headbut the arresting officer?
Good work I thought and great viewing. 27 yrs min wasn't it?
Crocodile tears. He hit/stabbed Sam himself and was trying to put all the blame on his mate.

Sad loss of life but playing gangster (albeit with a CO2 replica) was never going to lead to any of them becoming fine, upstanding citizens was it? It's not about being pleased either. Isn't it punishment and public protection?
We saw what that 2nd lad was like when he was arrested. A hateful, disrespectful and threatening little twunt who thought he was a tough guy. Even as he sat crying (tears for his own situation and not for the guy he deliberately plunged a blade into!) he did nothing but lie and pass blame onto his codefendant. They're 2 immature, wannabe gangsters who took a life over a petty squabble.

Me too. Teenage girl talking like that. rolleyes

Also Ashley talking properly in the
(crying his eyes out) interview and reverting to hardman "innit bruv" etc when charged.

Bloke was a fking embarrassment. If that programme gets seen by his fellow inmates he's in for a world of st
