Black Roses: The Death of Sophie Lancaster

[JackFrost]

Anyone else see this on BBC4 last night?

 

One of the most powerful pieces of TV I've seen in years.

Through the medum of poetry, it tells the story of a 20 year old woman brutally murdered in a Manchester park by a gang of youths, as she tried to protect her boyfriend. The couple were attacked purely because of the way they looked/dressed.
