Tonight

Violent Britain: Drugs, Knives and Gangs

As the rate of stabbings and shootings across the country surges, `Tonight' explores a key driver behind the rise in knife and gun crime - the criminal networks supplying drugs, which often involve young and vulnerable children. Allegra Stratton investigates the phenomenon known as `county lines', where children as young as 10 are sent to rural areas and small towns to sell class A drugs, trapped in a violent and murky underworld.
