Did anyone watch WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT? tonight (24Nov) how inspirational was it??? could just be me as I used to commit crime on a regular basis maybe not kidnapping etc but smaller crimes and to watch how he changed after his stretch in jail really has opened my eyes to alot of things and made me realise that crime isnt life its just behaviour that shouldnt happen?? did anyone else watch it if so what did they think of it??

Nope, what was it about?

Some sheffield lad called Richard Hales (i fink) and he got 13 years for kidnapping some1 and attempted murder and now hes come out he wants to be a professional boxer so he can use the violence hes built up in a controlled enviroment.

It's always heartening to hear success stories like that. Good luck to him, and all the best for his future work, both in the boxing field, and working with youngsters to show them that gangs, crime and violence are not the answer.

Missed that, wonder if its on catch up or youtube.
