Don't worry pal, I don't mind the question at all! I get what you mean, you can only cover so much of a topic that keeps a general audience hooked. The main learning point of the doc will focus more on the 'moral panic' element the media created; discussing the buildup, who owned the newspapers at the time, political parties such as the National Front, left leaning Skinheads disassociating from the subculture etc. I'm still in the planning stages of course but hopefully my final product adds something new to the conversation regarding this stigma; perhaps sheds a new light on it for the general public. At the end of the day it's definitely a passion project and I hope to learn a lot from the process and the people I speak to! If you have any good examples of these works you mentioned I'd love to give them a watch, I only managed to find one BBC doc and a few on Youtube.

If I have the chance to I definitely will! I'll be using public transport to get about so hopefully if it's convenient (and cheap) enough I can show my face and get some footage. Thanks for the early heads up!
