From south London to Kensal Green and Grahame Park, explore the city through its people, communities and criminal cases.
This collection moves between neighbourhood histories, football-related disorder and individual biographies. The films show how strongly a story can become attached to a place, while the companions keep the focus on the people and events actually covered. Choose a neighbourhood film for the wider setting or an individual profile for a closer account.
A killing in Brixton, an inquiry into criminal assets in Jamaica and a surge in London shootings form the documentary’s three strands. Their common problem is how investigators secure information, cooperation and lasting public trust.
Millwall’s football history is also a story about how a minority can shape a club’s public image. The documentary follows hooliganism, the memory of Luton in 1985, and efforts to rebuild trust through supporters and community work.
The opening film in the football-hooliganism series traces the Chelsea Headhunters from their origins through changing alliances, exposure and aftermath. Interview material adds another layer: the way participants explain a history they helped shape.
A place-led documentary about Kensal Green considers the distance between a neighbourhood’s history and its crime reputation, with the effects on residents providing a more useful focus than sensational labels.
Street Crime UK’s estate documentary begins with Grahame Park’s housing and aviation history, offering a place-based companion that keeps the neighbourhood’s identity broader than the reputation suggested by the title.
A documentary portrait of Jimmy Moody explores the construction of an underworld reputation, the contrast between personal recollection and criminal allegation, and a death that frames the film’s central question.
The documentary’s published account centres on Gary Nelson, Mike Tyson and an expensive jewellery dispute. It explores a point of contact between professional boxing, personal protection and the expectations that can develop around celebrity access.
