Knife Angels
With stabbings on the rise, Barney Green, a vascular surgeon in Middlesbrough, and the Madgin family from Wallsend, who lost their daughter Samantha to knife crime, band together.
With knife crime on the rise, this documentary follows Barney, a surgeon, as he responds to another stabbing on Teesside. Statistics show the north east is one of the worst areas of the country for knife crime. That’s why the Madgin family, whose daughter Samantha was stabbed to death, are campaigning to turn young people away from knives. This moving documentary follows their efforts to make a change for the better and demonstrates the devastation the use of knives on our streets can cause.
