History Documentary hosted by Robert Lindsay, published by ITV in 2014 - English narration


Information
------------------------------

Secrets from The Clink
In a brand new, two-part series, entertainer Len Goodman, comedian Johnny Vegas, actress Michelle Collins, broadcaster Mariella Frostrup and reporter Daisy Mcandrew, discover the crimes their ancestors committed dating back to the Victorian Era and the punishments they received.
The Victorians built many of the prisons that are still in use today such as Wormwood Scrubs, Strangeways and Pentonville but life inside them was very different. Back then prisoners were subject to hard labour and isolation and the alternative was the death penalty or transportation. Through exploring the story of each of the star\'s ancestors, Secrets From The Clink gives an insight into the Victorian penal system and what day-to-day life was like for convicts


1) Grinding Men Good
The first of a two-part programme in which celebrities embark on an emotional journey to discover how their ancestors coped with serving time in Victorian prisons. Strictly Come Dancing judge Len Goodman is shocked to learn his great-great-grandfather was assaulted by his own son, who was convicted and subjected to hard labour building docks and quarrying for stone. Comedian Johnny Vegas finds out how one of his forebears spent time behind bars for stealing, and that the man\'s alcoholic wife was a persistent offender. Broadcaster Mariella Frostrup hears the story of her great-great-grandfather, an entrepreneur who resorted to fraud when the economy crashed in the 1870s.

2) The Pains of Neglect
Part two of two. Strictly Come Dancing Judge Len Goodman explores the next chapter in the story of his great-great-grandfather, finding out how years of hard labour took their toll. Actress Michelle Collins is horrified to discover the Dickensian conditions one of her forebears experienced in a debtors\' prison after the collapse of his business in tough economic times. Journalist Daisy McAndrew follows the tale of an ancestor who dodged the hangman\'s noose and was transported to Australia, where her fortunes changed.
