0:00:14.873,0:00:17.673
Most think that Broadmoor is a prison,

0:00:17.673,0:00:20.593
in fact it's a high secure [br]psychiatric hospital,

0:00:20.593,0:00:22.432
and home to some of the countries most

0:02:21.810,0:02:24.510

Ronny Kray, Peter Sutcliffe, Robert

0:02:26.670,0:02:28.740

0:02:28.740,0:02:30.640

up'. Broadmoor is an institution of lots of

0:02:43.539,0:02:46.629
people. We're not all rapist pedophiles,

0:02:46.629,0:02:50.629
or murderers. There is people in here for

0:02:50.629,0:02:54.629

evil things.

lunatic asylum for the criminally insane,

0:03:13.830,0:03:15.960
today Broadmoor is an NHS hospital.

0:03:17.881,0:03:21.171
Over its 150 year history, it's been a secretive

0:03:21.171,0:03:24.881
and mysterious institution.

0:03:25.007,0:03:27.277
Staff are under strict instructions not to

Staff Member: " Close, close family

0:03:39.149,0:03:41.209
members know that, obviously, where we

0:03:41.209,0:03:43.781
work. But if we're in a normal mainstream

0:03:43.781,0:03:45.707
than you would, you would probably say you

0:03:45.707,0:03:47.983
work in the hospital or something. Don't

0:03:47.983,0:03:49.663

0:03:49.663,0:03:50.743
Staff Member #2: " Listen, if you said

0:03:50.743,0:03:52.253
that you worked here. Ah, boy. You'd just

0:03:52.253,0:03:53.573
spend the whole of a day, or the

0:03:53.573,0:03:56.106
afternoon, with a barrage of questions about the place.

0:03:56.106,0:03:58.366
So, it's just easy to say you work for the

like Peter Sutcliffe and Kenneth Erskine,

0:04:16.820,0:04:20.820
have chosen not to participate.

come to that, sometimes I come very close

that they're going to do something to me

Alex: "Oh, I was doing a fruit salad

0:06:46.710,0:06:48.670
the voices were telling me to attack the

0:06:48.670,0:06:50.430
people in the room, with the knife.

0:06:50.430,0:06:52.310
And, like, they were goading me into it,

0:06:52.310,0:06:53.155
and I thought ' I can't do that.

0:06:53.155,0:06:53.810
I can't do that.

0:06:53.810,0:06:55.820

0:06:55.820,0:06:57.820

0:07:55.001,0:07:57.304

0:08:03.224,0:08:04.824
learn to work with that.

0:08:04.824,0:08:09.514
[person sobbing]

0:08:09.514,0:08:11.684
My focus in working with this guys is

0:08:11.684,0:08:13.744
actually telling them that they are here

0:08:13.744,0:08:15.232
not because of the illness, they

0:08:15.232,0:08:16.552
are here because of violence.

0:08:16.552,0:08:18.782
And they only progress from here

0:08:18.782,0:08:21.022
if there's a reduction in that violence.

0:08:21.022,0:08:22.862
So that message, you know.

It might take time, but gradually

0:08:25.402,0:08:27.222

Patients who have responded to treatment

0:09:39.923,0:09:41.798
can progress to one of the hospitals

Assertive Rehab Wards, where

0:09:43.348,0:09:44.998
they're given greater freedom.

Daniel is one of 12 patients on this

0:09:49.274,0:09:49.744
ward.

0:09:50.930,0:09:52.886
Daniel: "I've been here five years.

0:09:52.886,0:09:54.556
Luckily I never went to a high dependency

0:09:54.556,0:09:56.236
ward, I came straight to rehab.

0:09:56.813,0:09:59.783
And, to be honest, its been...

0:09:59.783,0:10:01.473
I wouldn't use the word wonderful...

0:10:01.473,0:10:03.493
Cause' eh... it's not wonderful.

0:10:03.493,0:10:05.053
But, I've been grateful basically

0:10:05.053,0:10:06.246
to come here.

0:10:07.739,0:10:09.759
In my spare time I try and engage

0:10:09.759,0:10:10.834
in artwork mostly.

0:10:10.834,0:10:12.824
This was the, uh... my first real attempt

0:10:12.824,0:10:15.444
at an actual portrait. All done completely

0:10:15.444,0:10:19.724
in graphite, and then I moved on to using

0:10:19.724,0:10:22.234
charcoal along with, uh.. graphite.

0:10:22.270,0:10:24.600
And the charcoal allows you to, to have

0:10:24.600,0:10:27.330
so much more...uhhh...depth in the tone or

0:10:27.330,0:10:28.302
quality.

0:10:28.498,0:10:31.221
And then, yeah....I did a self-portrait.

0:10:31.221,0:10:33.321
The whole, The whole picture was a

0:10:33.321,0:10:35.051
statement about when I got locked up,

0:10:35.051,0:10:37.241
when I was 14 and I'm now 24.

0:10:37.241,0:10:41.241
This is me at 24, but uh, that's me.....

0:10:41.241,0:10:45.241
back then...sort of thing...."

Narrator: Mental Disorder is no respecter

0:10:48.484,0:10:50.643
of class or education.

0:10:51.180,0:10:53.270
Daniel was a 14 year old boy at a

0:10:53.270,0:10:55.624
mainstream school, and no one anticipated

0:10:55.624,0:10:58.194
the violence of his attack....on his own

0:10:58.194,0:11:00.114
family.

0:11:06.397,0:11:10.397
[Heavy guitar riff]

0:11:11.817,0:11:13.919
All of the men in Broadmoor present a

0:11:13.919,0:11:15.958
grave and immediate risk to the public.

0:11:15.958,0:11:18.538
And many have committed violent crimes.

0:11:18.758,0:11:21.798
From arson, to torture, rape and murder.

0:11:23.246,0:11:25.516
Unlike a prison sentence, they have no

0:11:25.516,0:11:27.101
release date.

0:11:28.927,0:11:30.737
Daniel: "I've been a bit of a conundrum

0:11:30.737,0:11:32.237
for the psychologists.

0:11:32.237,0:11:34.007
And I've have, I've had about nine different

0:11:34.007,0:11:36.987
diagnoses from thirty different doctors.

0:11:36.987,0:11:38.967
I've had seminars about me done,

0:11:38.967,0:11:40.567
I've had people wanting to write books about me,

0:11:40.567,0:11:42.607
just because of the unusuallity of

0:11:42.607,0:11:46.847
my offense, and my age, and what happened...

0:11:46.847,0:11:48.467
I mean, my family are my saving grace

0:11:48.467,0:11:49.541
to be honest here. They, they,

0:11:49.541,0:11:51.591
they're hugely...hugely supportive.

0:11:51.591,0:11:54.381
And what's even more amazing is that my offense

0:11:54.381,0:11:56.471
was actually oriented against my family.

0:11:56.471,0:11:59.491
So I think...so the fact....and, and, what a

0:11:59.491,0:12:02.201
lot of people see is that, when a family

0:12:02.201,0:12:03.551
member has committed an offense against

0:12:03.551,0:12:07.328
a family member they're often...dis-disowned.

0:12:07.328,0:12:09.673
So it think it's...it's too much for the family.

0:12:09.673,0:12:12.743
But, they-they, have told me that they swore

0:12:12.743,0:12:14.703
they'd stay by me when they, when I was

0:12:14.703,0:12:16.143
christened, and they have. So I think,

0:12:16.143,0:12:16.643
ya know...

0:12:16.643,0:12:19.684
They've always-they've always agreed I've had Aspergers.

0:12:19.684,0:12:21.443
One of the problems I have is I'm

0:12:21.443,0:12:23.576
not very good at understanding emotions.

0:12:23.576,0:12:26.686
Or...if I have a...if I'm feeling something

0:12:26.686,0:12:28.986
I don't always understand what it is that

0:12:28.986,0:12:29.618
I'm feeling.

0:12:29.618,0:12:32.808
But if I can draw it, I can get out these

0:12:32.808,0:12:35.258
angry feelings, or these frustrations of

0:12:35.258,0:12:38.008
being locked up, or guilt, or remorse.

0:12:38.008,0:12:40.638
All these, all these negative feelings I

0:12:40.638,0:12:43.528
can channel through this imaginative artworks".

0:12:44.348,0:12:49.388
[background talking, lunch bags rustle]

0:12:49.388,0:12:50.974
Daniel: I've probably never actually said

0:12:50.974,0:12:52.404
the words of what I actually done.

0:12:52.404,0:12:54.034
I've never admitted it.

0:12:56.826,0:12:59.734
Because I still, I still get flashbacks.

0:12:59.734,0:13:01.204
It's mainly guilt.

0:13:01.204,0:13:03.724
I still-I still struggle to bring it to mind

0:13:03.724,0:13:06.214
It's still just a blur in my head.

0:13:06.214,0:13:08.464
I've done such a terrible thing. Thats one

0:13:08.464,0:13:11.004
of the things that I've got to come to

0:13:11.004,0:13:13.234
terms with eventually is that I've

0:13:13.234,0:13:17.234
done this, it's happened, and it WILL be

0:13:17.234,0:13:19.334
with me forever".

0:13:20.473,0:13:22.833
Narrator: We're not allowed to reveal the

0:13:22.833,0:13:24.660
details of Daniel's offense.

0:13:25.243,0:13:26.553
Man in Suit: "okay"

0:13:26.553,0:13:27.243
Daniel: "Umm, the other thing I was

0:13:27.243,0:13:29.093
wondering about was, I sort of get

0:13:29.093,0:13:32.783
problems of fine motor control and spatial awareness,

0:13:32.783,0:13:35.753
and like bumping into things, and dropping

0:13:35.753,0:13:36.886
things a lot".

0:13:37.178,0:13:39.558
Man in Suit: "As you're saying it's not one of

0:13:39.558,0:13:41.638
the most common side effect. In fact, the

0:13:41.638,0:13:42.908
opposite....[trails off]"

0:13:42.908,0:13:44.508
Narrator: Daniel is taking medication and

0:13:44.508,0:13:46.554
undergoing psychological therapy.

0:13:46.554,0:13:48.866
These, together with everyday interaction

0:13:48.866,0:13:51.166
with staff are the cornerstone of

0:13:51.166,0:13:52.666
the treatment here.

0:13:52.666,0:13:54.796
Man in Suit: "Have you noticed any benefit?"

0:13:54.796,0:13:56.266
Daniel: " I don't really know what it is

0:13:56.266,0:13:57.206
I'm looking for."

0:13:57.206,0:13:58.726
Man in Suit: " I have noticed a difference

0:13:58.726,0:14:01.486
in you, not within the last week, but

0:14:01.486,0:14:03.816
certainly over the last three months. I

0:14:03.816,0:14:06.016
think that you are much more able to

0:14:06.016,0:14:08.616
spend longer time with people in one to

0:14:08.616,0:14:09.796

0:14:09.909,0:14:14.039
[ducks quack, dramatic music]

0:14:14.259,0:14:16.579
Narrator: Broadmoor can feel like a ghost

0:14:16.579,0:14:19.090
town. Patients can only move at certain

0:14:19.090,0:14:21.714
times and in certain configurations.

0:14:22.110,0:14:24.740
Their cameras record where each patient is

0:14:24.740,0:14:26.240
at any given moment.

0:14:26.240,0:14:30.670
[Radio Chatter]

0:14:30.869,0:14:33.489
The control room ensures that incompatible

0:14:33.489,0:14:35.765
patients, do not collide.

0:14:36.011,0:14:40.611
[Radio Chatter]

0:14:41.197,0:14:43.842
Patients who are well enough, leave their

0:14:43.842,0:14:46.962
wards to go to work, study, and even once

0:14:46.962,0:14:49.613
a week go shopping. It's strangely like a

0:14:49.613,0:14:51.393
village.

0:15:09.886,0:15:10.327
Shopkeeper: "Good."

0:15:13.488,0:15:15.872
Narrator: The freedom to shop is a

0:15:15.872,0:15:18.352
mixed blessing. One of the side effects

0:15:18.352,0:15:21.482
of medication is increased appetite

0:15:21.482,0:15:25.282
and many patients are severely overweight.

0:15:25.456,0:15:29.736
[indistinct talking]

0:15:29.906,0:15:32.716
However normal it feels, the reminder of

0:15:32.716,0:15:34.695
the threat of violence is ever-present.

0:15:35.478,0:15:37.924
Searches looking for potential weapons

0:15:37.924,0:15:40.803
are carried out before any patient movement.

0:15:41.399,0:15:43.409
Hospital Staff: This is stuff that we've

0:15:43.409,0:15:46.617
retrieved from patients. I think this is

0:15:46.617,0:15:49.727
just, what used to be a C.D. and its been

0:15:49.727,0:15:52.297
broken up into shards. It can be used as a

0:15:52.297,0:15:54.167
blade, even for self harming.

0:15:54.167,0:15:56.605
In fact, we don't use the C.D.s here anymore.

0:15:56.678,0:15:59.128
We've got spoons and forks that have been

0:15:59.128,0:16:01.597
sharpened off on the edge. So a normal

0:16:01.597,0:16:04.327
teaspoon-plastic spoon-which is quite innocent

0:16:04.327,0:16:06.807
to you and I, has been fashioned off and

0:16:06.807,0:16:09.108
can be used as a potential weapon to stab.

0:16:09.108,0:16:11.458
It's an example of how vigilant we have to

0:16:11.458,0:16:13.052
be with everyday items".

0:16:16.105,0:16:18.531
Alex: "I've done a lot of self harming, as

0:16:18.531,0:16:21.681
you can see. I've cut my own throat a couple

0:16:21.681,0:16:24.511
of times. I've cut my throat like four

0:16:24.511,0:16:27.421
times I think. Umm funny enough, I think

0:16:27.421,0:16:29.256
It was like five weeks before I come here,

0:16:29.256,0:16:32.426
I hung myself and they had to do CPR

0:16:32.426,0:16:33.416
on me in the cell.

0:16:33.416,0:16:34.576
Like, you know?

0:16:36.932,0:16:39.332
I was sexually abused when I was a child

0:16:39.332,0:16:41.712
and that had an affect on my behavior,

0:16:41.712,0:16:43.332
on my mental state.

0:16:43.332,0:16:44.902
I couldn't sleep at night, and the rest

0:16:44.902,0:16:46.352
of it...I was, you know...

0:16:46.352,0:16:48.132
Basically everything that you go through

0:16:48.132,0:16:49.952
when you've had a traumatic situation

0:16:49.952,0:16:51.195
like I did.

0:16:52.245,0:16:54.232
I think as well as being here,

0:16:54.232,0:16:55.822
I said to my mum 'this feels like the

0:16:55.822,0:16:58.111
best I've ever been in ten years."

0:17:01.485,0:17:03.745
Man in Tan Suit: Patients that come here,

0:17:03.745,0:17:05.851
they will have perpetrated, often,

0:17:05.851,0:17:08.691
horrendous crimes. But, they are also

0:17:08.691,0:17:12.791
victims. It is very easy to see somebody

0:17:12.791,0:17:14.981
as either the perpetrator or the victim.

0:17:14.981,0:17:17.399
It is much more difficult to understand

0:17:17.399,0:17:19.889
that somebody might be both.

Dave Neita: "Today I invite you to speak

0:17:49.791,0:17:52.691
about your own culture, but before

0:17:52.691,0:17:54.661
that we're going to have lunch."

and I would say that being multicultural

0:18:20.922,0:18:24.622
It helps. It's good. It's nice to be different.

0:18:24.622,0:18:26.492
Because different is what we need. We

0:18:26.492,0:18:29.142
don't want everyone the same. And that's it."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I went to children's homes, foster homes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I kept running away, cause' I got abused

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When I was in the children home. By the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
staff. Sexually and physical. And umm I

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
think it was like, no one would actually

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
listen to me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I ran away to London, and I was living on

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the streets. I mean I was living out of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
bins, yeah....not nice but, when you're

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on the streets you have to do that sometimes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you know what I mean?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Inmate in Red: "Yeah guys, this is called

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Think, yeah?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It goes like this: When you see a tramp

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
out on the street. Don't look down your

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
nose so far that you see your own feet.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When you see people homeless don't reach

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for a broom. Consider if you have the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
means to give them a room.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "Am I a victim? I mean my current

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
defendant...umm...basically stabbed 'em

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
up. The judge classed it under as torture".

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Inmate in Blue: "I'm black, I'm

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
British, and I'm proud of it [fades into

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
clapping and drums]."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "You say you've got a child?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "Mm-hm. Got a little boy,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
he's seven.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And he lives with his mum.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Don't really see him, but I would-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I wouldn't expect children to come in a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
place like this."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "And are you still on good

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
terms with his mum?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "Ummm...<b>laughs</b>

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
not really. No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I started having a bit of a relationship

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with [name beeped out]. Sooo, yeah..that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
was the first time I found out that I was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
sort of that way.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I've always-for some reason-I've always

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
wanted to be a woman.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I think that's the way I am, you know

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but in this place you can't do that,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
they won't allow it."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan in front of room: "I just wanted

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to say I'm gay, and I'm proud of it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Thank you."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "I want to be a Drag Queen that's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
what I've done for a while."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "What's she called?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "Crystal."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "And what's she look like?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: "Blonde, and just fabulous

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
<b>laughs</b>"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Intense music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: We've come to Chepstow, a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
medium-dependancy ward, where Lenny

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
wants to show us his artwork.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "You do it in your room?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "Yeah. I do work with spare pens,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and it's mostly based on pens and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
basically your using cups and shapes

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and bottle tops to draw around.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "How long have you been here?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "7 years this time."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female voice: "Is it not your first time?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "No it's the second time.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What do you think of that one?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That's the corridors in a ward that's shut

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
down now."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "So why are you considered

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a risk?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "Because...I think its because of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
my particular offense was against a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
consulting psychiatrist. They

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
called in a section 12 approved psychiatrist.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And they're very powerful, not like- not

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like when you go to an ordinary doctor.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
They-they work from home office."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: He's not happy with life in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Broadmoor, and tells us he's bringing a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
High Court case against the hospital.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "It costs how much? What was the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
last figure they said it cost to keep us

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here every year? 320,000 pounds a year or

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
something? Surely its-its wrong to charge

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a fortune for people like us. When we're

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
nowhere near about the centers of the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
community."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: I costs 300,000 pounds a year

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to keep a patient in Broadmoor. Almost

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
five times the cost of keep someone in prison.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Before Lenny came to Broadmoor, he was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in outpatient at a psychiatric hospital

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
where he threatened his psychiatrist with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a machete.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Female Voice: "Do you think you shouldn't

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
be here, or?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: "Do you think I sound like a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
mad blathering idiot?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Cause' I think-No I don't think I should

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
be here. I think I should be sharing this-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
my life- with people. I want to be

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
sharing my life with people. I want to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
be able to decide

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
what I do, when I do it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and be reasonably responsible for my

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
own behavior, like anyone else out there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And I don't think I'll be any more of a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
danger then whatever's already out there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And I will be honest with you, I am rude

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here, I could be really furious and angry

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and people come with 'You're the patient,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
yeah? That is a term we use to separate

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you from the rest of society, we're the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
last thing on earth -this is the truth

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here- to be given what you call equal

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
rights. What do you think? You agree

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or not? I'm not anti-people I'm all for

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
people."

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Downstairs on the admissions

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
ward, Alex is keen to progress.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: I was seven months up in here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
yesterday, seven months yesterday. It's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
taking forever. Are you aware of any

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
beds coming up soon?"

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: His medication has stabilized

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
him. He wants to move from Admissions to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and Assertive Rehab ward, where he'll

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
have greater freedom.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man in suit: That I don't know.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: Well you should know, [laughing]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you're a consultant in there!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man in suit: Yes- I can't- I don't know

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the timescales, cause it's not quite

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
within my control...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Back upstairs on Chepstow,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Benson, the PAT dog, has arrived for

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
his weekly visit.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny's behavior over the past few days

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is becoming a cause for concern.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He's been increasingly manic and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
hyperactive, and his doctor feels he

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
needs medication.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[door clatter] Dog Handler: Bye!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Lenny refuses to take it,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so it'll have to be forcibly administered,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
by injection.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Hang on hang on, you filming?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[crosstalk]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: This is wrong, I'm not fighting you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[crosstalk]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[chatter]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctor: Guys, we really need to get this

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
started, if you just mind, just, just-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
please.. OK? All right

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: At this point, staff tell us

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to leave the ward.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[moody music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We're told we can see Lenny the following

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
day. [door shuts]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[birds, brooding music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Neil? Neil, could we have a key

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
please? There should [unintelligible]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: The day before, we were told to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
leave the ward when staff were about

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to forcibly inject Lenny with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
antipsychotic medication.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He's keen to explain what happened after

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we left.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Come this way-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So I moved into here-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: He leads us into the seclusion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
area.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Come in, come in.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
All right, well [unintelligible] First

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of all, I was at that point, I was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
laying like this, alright, and I was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
talking saying 'Please don't turn me

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
over, cos I'm not trying to fight you'

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And they said, and the next thing happened

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
they all came in and [unintelligible]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I can make a deal with them, I'm on the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
bed, so I'm like this, one point, all the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
staff were holding me, I was like that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and said 'Would you please let me go,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and I'll get up' so I went like that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and stood like that and took down my

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
pants and trousers and he stopped

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
me there, let's see, I came out again,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that's what happened, but I didn't-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What do you think? What's your opinion

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
about that?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Interviewer: But did you, so did you hit

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one of them then?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Yeah but that's cos I was being

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
chased [unintelligible].

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One of the biggest areas of conflict, um

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
between certainly doctor and patient

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is the issue of medication.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: This one's sealed, alright?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's stifling sometimes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctor, offscreen: One of the difficulties

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with psychotic disorders is your

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
interpretation of reality is different

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from other people's.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And if you genuinely believe there's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
nothing wrong with you and you don't

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
need any medication, why on earth would

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you want to take some of the medications

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that would be up for discussion?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Could we open this door please?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctor: He's particularly angry for two[br]reasons, so

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one is he doesn't believe he'll benefit

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from the medication at all, second reason

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that he believes he's involved in a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
major, high court case against the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
hospital to expose a range of malpractice

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
particularly in relation to him, but in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
general about how these services are just

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
really keeping people in jobs and don't

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
provide any useful service.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: The hospital's defense is just-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
'Here's some of the most notorious

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
people in the country,' I'll show you[br]what-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctor: He believes we've given him the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
medication purely to dull his mind

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and weaken his chances of being successful

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in that case.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
In fact he's not currently involved [br]in any,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
uh, legal action or court case.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: No you're not going in there

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's private, sorry come on you guys

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's private. It's my mess, my own mess.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Hey look, can you show 'em all now?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Look at that, that's my mum and me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
See she pretty in the black and white from

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the 60s, see her?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Doctor: He's a man who's spent a long

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
time in institutional care, um in previous

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
settings was frequently assaulted, he was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
violent himself on several occasions

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but he often assaulted.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: You want a drink or anything, cup

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of tea or something?[br][offscreen] I'm fine

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You sure? Any sweets, soft drink?[br][offscreen] Nothing

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Alright thanks very, thank you [br]very much [unintelligible]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[contemplative music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[keys clattering, chatter]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[offscreen] Just check to make sure, all

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the shadows are covered..

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So they're checked, first thing in the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
morning, again before the patients go back

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[door handle rattles]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Patients who are well enough

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to go to work can make goods, which go

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on sale to the public. They are paid

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex has been doing well and is now

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
allowed off the Admissions ward to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
come to work.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: Everyone's saying 'Oh you gonna move

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you're gonna move' they said I would have

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
moved by Thursday last week, nothing

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so far now, I've been onto my psychiatrist

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
saying, 'Look, why am I still on at[br]Admission ward,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
after 8 months, when there's a bed for me

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on Rehab? Know?'

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Interviewer: You a bit frustrated?[br]Alex: Yeah

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it is frustrating, but

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm just at the moment, focusing, cos next

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
week I've got a visit, mum and dad are

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
coming up for 2 days, so, y'know, I'll

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
spend some time with my family.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[tapping]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[outdoor ambiance, guitar music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: They have a saying here:

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There's time, and then there's Broadmoor[br]Time.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Tan shirt: Which episode did you see last,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000

Tan shirt: Did they show the man who was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
pretending to be Nick Cotton's own son?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Black shirt: No I didn't see it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[moody music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: While medication can often

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
control behavior, extensive therapy is

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
needed to change it, and that takes time.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Estelle: I'm in the diary, ok?[br][offscreen] OK

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Estelle Moore is the hospital's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
lead psychologist, she's been here for 20[br]years.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Estelle: [keys jangling] You alright?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: They say just carry on with the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
violent offenders group, what finishes in[br]December

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Patients undergo specific

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
therapies depending on their offense,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
whether it's violence, sex offending, or

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
fire setting.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: -understand our relationships and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
uhh, borderlines. No not borderlines, [br]boundaries.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Estelle: What sort of actions are safe

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and contained in relationships? The sorts

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of things that you would do that feel

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like normal and safe relationships?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: Laughter

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Estelle: Laughter? OK so laughing,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: Talking sensible. Feeling[br]comfortable with each other.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[keys, footsteps]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Declan was found guilty of a[br]life-threatening assault on a man.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Declan: Do I feel sorry for him? No.[br]Will I do it again? No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
No. I'm missing the sun, I'm missing[br]the surfing. Know what I mean?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[keys, door squeaks]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[door shuts]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[moody music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[ping pong ball clatters]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Lenny has been on antipsychotic

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
medication for a few weeks.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It has had time to build up in his system.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[ponytail] Now he's had the depot [br]injection, the chemicals from that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
are slowing down his reactions to the[br]point where he has those few

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
more seconds to think-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
'How am I gonna reply to this?'

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and he will reply in a much more- manner[br]to what you or I would reply to something.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I can definitely empathize with him, he

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
hasn't come from a different [br]background to me

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but he has come from different parents[br]to me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Interviewer, offscreen] It seems to be[br]the case with so many.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Yeah, I know, I agree with that, you can

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
probably see if you go back into, um,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the lives of most of our patients, you[br]could probably identify them at

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
5, 6 years old, and say 'I'll be seeing[br]you later on' and things like that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: He's alright here, he's my buddy,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one day he's gonna tell the [br]truth as well. [laughs]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[walkie talkie chatter]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Doctor, offscreen] Everyone is born with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
certain temperaments, with certain[br]predispositions to certain

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
behavior, and if you've been given a [br]triple-whammy of, of genes, environment,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
upbringing, childhood adversity, substance[br]misuse, all of those different

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
aspects build up to make the person.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And it's a long term project of gradually[br]putting somebody back together and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
making sure that they stay in that[br]recovered state.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[ominous music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Things have finally changed for[br]Alex-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
after 8 months, he's been moved to [br]Assertive Rehab.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: It's better over here, it's a little[br]better.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Got a lot more freedom, key to a door,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
come out when you want to make hot drinks,[br]yeah, it's alright.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: But it's not all good news. As[br]so often in the past,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
he's in danger of self-harming.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He's had to be put on Eyesight Observation[br]which means nurses have to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
take turns to watch him, 24 hours a day.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: Cos my mental state haven't been[br]the best, it's not nice, you know,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
hearing voices and what-have-you, but[br]you know, just got to control it,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that's all you can do, not let it get[br]to you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex, offscreen: Dr Romero said I'm gonna[br]be here a few years, yet

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nurse: A few years?[br]Alex: A few years.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nurse: How do you feel about that?[br]Alex: I don't mind...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nurse: You don't mind?[br]Alex: I'm here for a reason.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nurse: All right.[br]Alex: Get better, innit? So

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
if that means I got to stay a[br]couple years, so be it. But-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm getting there, now.[br]Nurse: You're getting there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: [unintelligible][br]Nurse: Mhmm

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alex: Least, at least there was no[br]violence.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Nurse: Which is good! You should be proud[br]of. At least it shows that you're

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
making, you know, more progress.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[meditative music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: Alex's mental state continued[br]to deteriorate, after a couple of weeks

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on the ward did self-harm, and had to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
be moved back a High Dependency ward.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[nighttime ambiance]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[keys rattling, chatter]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: On Chepstow Ward, Dr Larkin[br]wants to discuss a recent incident

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
involving Lenny and another doctor.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: I would say that I was really[br]pleased that they are now starting to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
track and find pedophiles in our society,[br]how pleased I was, and that they

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
weren't just ordinary poor folk that[br]were getting nicked, it was also

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
people of importance were getting [br]found out.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Larkin: Right[br]Lenny: And I'm really pleased about that,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and she felt threatened that I was saying[br]it also included

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a couple of doctors, that were nicked[br]for pedophilia.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Larkin: You're not angry with her about[br]something in her report?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: No, it wasn't anything with her, [br]it wasn't directed towards her

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it was directed towards the general idea[br]of pedophilia, cos you know I am

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a victim of pedophilia, for 9 years, [br]under the Home Office, when I was

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a child myself, and they've done[br]nothing, but- um, bury that fact.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Cos I'm an offender. I am an offender,[br]and I admit that, I'm guilty of the crime

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that brought me to Broadmoor, [br]I threatened to kill a Section 12

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
consultant psychiatrist, like you are,[br]with a machete.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But, I'm not guilty of raping myself.[br]Larkin: Well-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I think the issue is that you felt[br]nobody here was [crosstalk]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: I was being tied up, right? Raped,[br]against my will, alcohol shoved down

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
my throat, right, pacified, with- with all[br]kinds of medicines that belong to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that person, you know, not me, so[br]that I would be pliable

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and agree to having sex, which I didn't[br]want to do, with a

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
5 or 6 year-old boy, but 9 years[br]I was in the system itself, being-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
seeing psychologists at the same time[br]I'm being raped, and nobody did

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a single thing to help me. You are[br]offering me therapy, and I'm not

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
angry at you- I'm not angry at anybody-[br]I'm angry at did what they did

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to me. And no one recognized that I[br]was a victim.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Larkin: So, are we agreeing that you're[br]gonna meet with David

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
about options for therapy for you as a[br]victim?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Yeah thank you very much Dr Larkin.[br]Larkin: You're welcome, okay.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Thank you. I got to keep- I'm [br]keeping trouble free- if I keep out of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
trouble for- for 12 weeks, they'll let me [br]work in the cafe?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Larkin: Yes, you think you can do that?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lenny: Be hard, but I'll give it a try.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Narrator: The most challenging patients[br]are housed here on Cranfield Ward.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Any movement outside their rooms has to[br]be carefully planned.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Violence is always near the surface.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Patients are allowed, one by one, in the[br]yard, for limited periods.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
A patient doesn't want to return to[br]his room. [radio chatter]
