    Any "Banged Up Abroad" Fans?

    Its basically a documentary (shown on National Geographic channel) with real life stories of people who have been arrested while travelling abroad, usually for trying to smuggle illegal drugs out of a country and have received lengthy prison sentences as a result. The original people are interviewed along with a reconstruction of the events.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banged_Up_Abroad

    Its a fascinating look at how stupid people can be but also, it gives an insight into how, well..... how stupid people can be

    Here's one full length episode for you:

                  This episode is one of my favourites. The story of Billy Hayes, whose own story was made into a hollywood movie "Midnight Express" in 1978 which some of you may remember.

                  Here's a clip from the start of this episode of "Banged Up Abroad":

                                      Watched it once, some stupid guy trying to smuggle drugs and then it was a sob story about how tough the prison was in Thailand.

                                      If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
