1x01 Episode 1

Having their stash of drugs stolen by the rival gang was unfortunate because they still have to pay the debt of £2,000 to their boss and you can understand why Lisa said she had no kids when she was sectioned because she is unable to cope and she was scared that her 13-year-old son Ra'Nell will be taken into care

1x02 Episode 2

Getting robbed a second time was just careless considering what they are dealing with and after accidentally killing the guy's cousin should make thing interesting but sad that Ra'Nell missed his mom on her day release from hospital

Well if we all copied what we watched on TV what a sorry state the world would be in, it could be a bank robbery or stealing a car or the lowest of them all mugging a pensioner but trying to blame it on TV is a cop out

It reminds me when they blamed Child's Play 3 for influencing what happened to James Bulger

1x03 Episode 3

What they did to the dog was tragic but it must of been one of his friends who told them where he hides the dog when he is at school and killing to get their drugs back was inevitable

1x04 Episode 4

Ra'Nell deciding to negotiate directly with Dushane over the price of Heather's crop was the worst thing he could do and now with Sully killing again just to steal the weed that Dushane agreed to pay for so selling Sully out to protect himself  i thought was inevitable but i didn't expect him to kill another himself and paying for Heather's crop was nice considering she has just had a baby

The naked guy walking into the hairdressers was bizarre but chasing him out with the broom was amusing and Dushane's new solicitor was impressive

2x02 Episode 2

I can't believe how cocky and lucky the phone thief kid was being caught only to escape again but shouting his mouth off is bound to backfire sooner or later

2x03 Episode 3

Chopping the hand off was a shock and so much for showing he's a man after the shopkeeper stopped him but the witness to Kamale's murder is going to make things interesting

2x04 Episode 4

Dushane should be worried now as the police have increase the pressure on Kayla to force her to talk or face charges of perverting the course of justice but going after her child as leverage cruel and throwing him of the balcony because he warned Dushane was tragic
