:00:06. > :00:13.Hello. This week I am in Liverpool, where I will be investigating the

:00:13. > :00:16.devastating effects of hate crime. One tonight's programme: How people

:00:17. > :00:23.with disabilities are becoming victims of hate crime. Nine out of

:00:23. > :00:28.ten people with learning disabilities experience bullying.

:00:28. > :00:33.We have to do something about it. We investigate the lengths that

:00:33. > :00:38.councils are going to to clean up the north. We have some footage of

:00:38. > :00:41.a lady who, on a night out, has ripped up the yellow pages. The

:00:41. > :00:44.talking camera spoke to her and asked her to pick up the litter.

:00:44. > :00:48.She went back and that every piece in the bin.

:00:48. > :00:57.And while Liverpool company is made up with its Hollywood success.

:00:57. > :01:07.have been lucky over the years to be involved in loads of great films.

:01:07. > :01:17.

:01:17. > :01:21.Now, it might be hard to believe but every day throughout the north-

:01:21. > :01:26.west disabled people are becoming the victims of hate crime. And the

:01:26. > :01:34.effects are not just the moralising, they can sometimes lead to tragedy,

:01:34. > :01:37.as Annabel Tiffin reports. Gary Skelly died over a year ago.

:01:38. > :01:44.Dust now gathers on his toy collection, left undisturbed since

:01:44. > :01:49.the night see what -- the night he was attacked. Gary was killed by a

:01:49. > :01:59.single blow to their head. His senseless death has left a void

:01:59. > :02:09.that can never be filled. I have been with him 53 years, I wasn't

:02:09. > :02:13.

:02:13. > :02:18.there then. Call God! Sorry. -- Oh, god.

:02:18. > :02:21.Gary was looked after by his mother, Agnes, in Norris Green in Liverpool.

:02:21. > :02:26.He died on September 14th last year while walking home from a friend's

:02:26. > :02:35.eyes. His killer, who is 21, is serving a seven-year sentence for

:02:35. > :02:42.manslaughter. He said he did not know him. He just said he irritated

:02:42. > :02:45.him because he asked him for a cigarette. Those close to Gary are

:02:45. > :02:51.convinced that his death should have been reported by the police as

:02:51. > :02:57.I hate crime. They have rate -- launched an awareness campaign

:02:57. > :03:01.called Face Facts. They say they want a change in the law that come

:03:01. > :03:05.Pels -- that compels the police to report such attacks as hate crimes.

:03:05. > :03:11.Gary suffered years of torment but never revealed the true extent of

:03:11. > :03:21.the bullying he had to endure. used to making dance. You know,

:03:21. > :03:22.

:03:22. > :03:28.dance for a cigarette or whatever. I knew there were a few lads that

:03:28. > :03:35.mocked him, but, as I say, he never complained, he would not come in

:03:35. > :03:43.and tell you that. I would have to say to him, are you afraid of them?

:03:43. > :03:53.Sometimes they would come up to the door on bikes and ask if Gary was

:03:53. > :04:00.in. If I was -- if he was out in the evening, I would never go to

:04:00. > :04:05.sleep until he was back. Even if your children are normal you do not

:04:05. > :04:12.sleep until they are rain. I used to worry about him. -- until they

:04:12. > :04:16.are home. What happened is my worst nightmare.

:04:16. > :04:20.The Face Facts campaigners say that Gary's death is part of an

:04:20. > :04:24.increasing trend of attacks in the north-west on people with

:04:24. > :04:29.disabilities. Two other men with learning difficulties have died in

:04:29. > :04:34.tragic circumstances. Greater Manchester Police were severely

:04:34. > :04:41.criticised for failing to recognise that David Askew was the victim of

:04:41. > :04:45.hate crime. He had suffered years of abuse. Carl Chadwick, who was 40,

:04:45. > :04:50.was murdered in January this year. He was found dead at his flat in

:04:50. > :04:54.Warrington. A 40-year-old man is now serving a sentence in jail.

:04:54. > :04:57.is shocking and it should not be allowed. Nine out of ten people

:04:58. > :05:03.with learning disabilities Experience bullying. That is an

:05:03. > :05:08.absolute shame. It is a shame on civil society and we have to do

:05:08. > :05:15.something about it. Gary was targeted and did not tell his

:05:15. > :05:25.family that he was a target because he viewed those individuals

:05:25. > :05:25.

:05:25. > :05:34.contacts in his local community. -- those individuals as contacts. He

:05:34. > :05:39.would not tell farm -- family members for fear of being kept at

:05:39. > :05:44.home. That was his contact with the local community and, unfortunately,

:05:44. > :05:48.he was seriously taken advantage of. Gary used to call for weekly

:05:48. > :05:50.sessions with a charity based at Liverpool University of. It is

:05:50. > :05:59.called moving on with life and learning and was set up to help

:05:59. > :06:09.those with learning difficulties to read and write.

:06:09. > :06:13.

:06:13. > :06:17.He is missed. Our members have university student status. They can

:06:17. > :06:24.access the swimming pool, library and the computer suites. For Gary

:06:24. > :06:27.to experience being respected, learning, widening his social

:06:27. > :06:31.network while he was here, you could see him walking past the

:06:31. > :06:41.canteen to the main door and you could see him go role two inches

:06:41. > :06:45.taller. It was just pure pride. -- you could see him grow.

:06:45. > :06:50.Gary's loss is still felt deeply by his friends there. To help with the

:06:50. > :06:56.Face Facts campaign they have made a 15-minute film about hate crime

:06:56. > :07:00.as a tribute to Gary. It is being shown to council leaders, police

:07:00. > :07:04.and social services. The group are hoping that it will change the way

:07:04. > :07:09.that people think about disability and will help prevent eight cranes

:07:09. > :07:19.in the future. What is your name again, make? John. See you later,

:07:19. > :07:21.

:07:21. > :07:26.John. Yeah, in a bet. Going to a shop in town, I came out

:07:26. > :07:32.and there were about half-a-dozen lads and they were all shouting at

:07:32. > :07:39.me. I cannot always tell if they are teasing or if they are serious.

:07:39. > :07:49.That is what gets me paranoid. I was in school I got bullied quite

:07:49. > :07:54.

:07:55. > :08:04.a lot. I got called a window leapter and it made me sad. --

:08:05. > :08:18.

:08:18. > :08:21.licker. Gary was volunteering at his local

:08:21. > :08:28.hospital in the hope of finding a job. He would have been a good

:08:28. > :08:33.asset because he was a real wit. It would have been the icing on the

:08:33. > :08:40.cake for him and his family that he would be a volunteer in a

:08:40. > :08:46.prestigious hospital, doing good work, and how people would have

:08:46. > :08:54.viewed him so differently there. is sad. Who could want to do

:08:54. > :09:01.something so horrendous to garage. He always like this -- up like they

:09:01. > :09:08.giggle, a cigarette. There needs to be more legislation to protect us,

:09:08. > :09:13.more law coming in and more awareness. You can change attitudes.

:09:13. > :09:17.With Gary, we are certainly not going to let his death be in vain.

:09:17. > :09:24.We will carry on until there is a change in the law. You're not going

:09:24. > :09:34.to give up fighting? Absolutely not. His life, actually, was worth a

:09:34. > :09:34.

:09:34. > :09:42.damn sight more than seven years. I just hope that, if it makes one

:09:42. > :09:52.person a where even, you know, are aware of the disadvantaged people

:09:52. > :09:56.

:09:56. > :10:06.and what they have to put up with... And what they leave behind. That

:10:06. > :10:09.

:10:10. > :10:19.will be something. When people needed him he was there for his

:10:20. > :10:24.

:10:24. > :10:34.friends. When he died everyone was devastated that such a special

:10:34. > :10:49.

:10:49. > :10:55.person had been lost. Thank you Coming up call on JC get a taste of

:10:55. > :11:01.Hollywood glamour. What is happening to me? Were we are making

:11:01. > :11:08.you more gorgeous, don't you know? -- we are making you.

:11:08. > :11:12.It is a huge problem that we cannot afford to have - litter. It costs

:11:12. > :11:17.the North of England about �500 million a year. But how can

:11:17. > :11:26.councils stop it when they are having to cut costs. Chris Jackson

:11:26. > :11:34.has been investigating. Three northern towns trying to

:11:34. > :11:42.become cities, trying to deal with one problem. It is disgusting.

:11:42. > :11:46.Everything is on the floor - sickness, chips, grease. They

:11:46. > :11:50.cannot control themselves and they do not care about the public space.

:11:50. > :11:54.Councils are told us that picking up litter is a waste of money. It

:11:54. > :12:00.comes out of your pocket. And if you thought it was not a problem,

:12:00. > :12:07.take another look. Every place has a different tactic.

:12:07. > :12:17.In Doncaster, they will hunt you down then catch you. I am from the

:12:17. > :12:20.council import -- enforcement team. You have dropped a cigarette end.

:12:20. > :12:25.This is possibly the toughest council in England in terms of

:12:25. > :12:30.litter enforcement. It is �75 for littering.

:12:30. > :12:34.Paul and his colleagues have targets for the amount of fines

:12:35. > :12:40.they hand out because they say that being all nice does not work.

:12:40. > :12:43.in a situation where we have to have teeth. The �75 is the teeth.

:12:44. > :12:47.They do it because they would rather not spend money from

:12:48. > :12:53.increasingly stretched budgets on picking up our rubbish.

:12:53. > :12:55.In England alone, the local authorities spend over �880 million

:12:55. > :13:01.every year on street cleansing. That is money that could be much

:13:01. > :13:04.better spent on other things, obviously. Doncaster would have �3

:13:04. > :13:10.million every year to spend on other things. Across the Pennines

:13:10. > :13:14.in Bolton, letter costs �2.8 million. In Middlesbrough they do

:13:14. > :13:18.not know the exact cost but the council takes a different tack. It

:13:18. > :13:24.focuses on changing behaviour. If that does not work, they tell you

:13:25. > :13:30.what. Could the man in the black jacket and the grey pants please

:13:30. > :13:35.pick up your letter? Five years ago, talking cameras were brought in.

:13:35. > :13:41.do think it works. We have 21 cameras. That covers a lot of

:13:41. > :13:45.ground and a lot of people. Have you ever seen it work? Yes, we have

:13:45. > :13:50.some footage of a lady who, on a night out, has ripped up the yellow

:13:50. > :13:53.pages. The talking cameras spoke to her and asked her to pick it up.

:13:54. > :14:00.She went back, picked up every piece than pitted in the bin.

:14:00. > :14:10.In Doncaster or they find that fear works better. You will be fined. It

:14:10. > :14:18.is in the back of people's minds. The zero-tolerance thing works.

:14:18. > :14:24.not with everyone. They ended up fining me and putting me on a

:14:24. > :14:29.course. The Government can sit on their backsides and get paid for

:14:29. > :14:34.other people's mistakes. In Doncaster last year, they raised

:14:34. > :14:41.a cool �120,000 in fines, compared to �6,000 in Bolton. At

:14:41. > :14:44.Middlesbrough? Just �250. I think we have a success. We do not need

:14:45. > :14:49.to fine people. For you do not worry that Doncaster is raking in

:14:49. > :14:54.money and you are not? Is Doncaster cleaner than Middlesbrough or not?

:14:54. > :15:04.No, but little is such a tricky issue, even campaign groups are

:15:04. > :15:07.

:15:07. > :15:11.Keep Britain Tidy has been around 50 years. Now a new band of

:15:11. > :15:15.activists say continuing to fund it is throwing taxpayers' money in the

:15:15. > :15:20.bin. The campaigning just hasn't worked. If you ask me to provide

:15:20. > :15:29.evidence of that, I say, well there are streets like this all over

:15:29. > :15:35.England. John launched Cheen Up Britain this year w -- Clean Up

:15:35. > :15:39.Britain this year w the help of celebrities. They are a group of

:15:39. > :15:43.individuals who have got together, on a voluntary basis to run this

:15:43. > :15:46.campaign. By saying keep Britain tidwri is failing, they have caused

:15:46. > :15:54.a stir. It is disappearing to be attacked. We campaign and get

:15:54. > :16:02.things on the media as well. If seems daft to set up something

:16:02. > :16:07.which is setting up against us. Keep Britain Tidy Campaigns are

:16:07. > :16:14.funded by the taxpayer. Can we afford it? In Bolton, they are

:16:14. > :16:23.already feeling the pinch. With the cut-backs and everything, it has

:16:23. > :16:29.deteriorated because of the workforce We are trying to make

:16:29. > :16:34.sure people don't drop litter. It is a mind-change. In the north of

:16:35. > :16:39.England people used to go out and clean the street in front of their

:16:39. > :16:48.houses. It didn't stop that pride in where they lived. Where did that

:16:48. > :16:52.pride go? I wrote a book about litter and the meaning of litter.

:16:52. > :16:59.It's a symptom of a break down of our society, in which people don't

:16:59. > :17:03.really have ar close relations with each other. They don't even eat

:17:03. > :17:06.together, except for in the street. If you look in the street you can

:17:06. > :17:11.see a lot of what we have become. It is not an urban problem alone.

:17:11. > :17:16.Some of the most disturbing things about the litter is the way it is

:17:16. > :17:21.distributed along a rural road. Even if you think it is wrong, dare

:17:21. > :17:27.you intervene. A man in Manchester was assaulted after challenging a

:17:27. > :17:32.gang. If we see somebody do it, what are we supposed to do? I don't

:17:32. > :17:38.know if you noticed you dropped some litter just there, a fag

:17:38. > :17:44.packet. Oh, yeah. Why did you do it? Just a habit. Are you going to

:17:44. > :17:49.stop it? Why did you put it down there? You

:17:49. > :17:55.have put it up for someone else to pick up. I'm sorry. I know you are

:17:55. > :17:59.sorry. Let's find a bin. Just there. Thank you.

:17:59. > :18:02.It's embarrassing, isn't it? It's embarrassing.

:18:02. > :18:10.Most people, when you tell them about it, they know they have done

:18:10. > :18:16.wrong and they put it right, but they've done it.

:18:16. > :18:22.If councils didn't pick up litter, then who would? Middlesbrough and

:18:22. > :18:26.Bolton Councils have accepted our challenge not to clean the street

:18:26. > :18:36.to see would happen. Bolton agreed to leave 100 metres of a town

:18:36. > :18:39.

:18:39. > :18:43.centre street uncleaned for a day. This is what we found.

:18:43. > :18:47.I am shocked. The majority of people who saw that litter were

:18:47. > :18:57.shocked at what they saw there. That would normally be cleaned away

:18:57. > :19:01.in the early hours. We asked local children to clean up the mess.

:19:01. > :19:10.In Middlesbrough it will be a tougher job. The council left a

:19:10. > :19:15.mile of its busiest road uncleaned for a whole weekend. It is

:19:15. > :19:21.disgusting. Loads of plastic bags everywhere. In this Middlesbrough

:19:21. > :19:26.road we collected 26 full bags of rubbish. Food for thought?

:19:26. > :19:30.thing I say to people, is next time you see somebody dropping a crisp

:19:30. > :19:35.packet on the floor, imagine it is them dropping your �5 note, you are

:19:35. > :19:40.paying to pick it up. Where does Hollywood go when it

:19:40. > :19:44.wants the best in special effects make-up? Well, Liverpool, of

:19:44. > :19:48.course! I am outside St George's Hall. Around the corner in Victoria

:19:48. > :19:54.Street there is a small firm w a big reputation for providing the

:19:55. > :19:58.best in aliens, gremlins and good old blood and gore. Now f you are

:19:58. > :20:04.having your tea you -- now, if you are having your tea, you might want

:20:04. > :20:13.to find out more. Greg Norman has been to find out

:20:13. > :20:21.more. -- Jacey Normand has been to find out more. I was excited; but I

:20:21. > :20:27.have had a look aroundnd aam starting to feel a -- around and I

:20:27. > :20:34.am starting to feel a little bit nervous. I was right to be worried.

:20:34. > :20:41.I am in the very capable hands of these people. What is happening to

:20:41. > :20:46.me? We are making you look more gorgeous. Eddie Jones is not just a

:20:46. > :20:53.make-up -- Davy Jones is a master of prosthetics. At his training

:20:53. > :20:58.school he has come up with weird and wonderful effects for TV shows.

:20:58. > :21:02.We have been lucky over the years to be involved in loads of great

:21:02. > :21:12.films, like with Pirates of the Caribbean. Blade II.

:21:12. > :21:16.

:21:16. > :21:23.Narnia, the Life And Death of Peter Sellers. We did Shadow Line.

:21:23. > :21:26.His hands have worked their magic on the faces of stars like Geoffrey

:21:26. > :21:33.Rush, Wesley Snipes, Martin Shaw and Timothy Spall. So, I was in

:21:33. > :21:39.good company. Take a little breath. Pull yourself

:21:39. > :21:48.gently backwards. Take a breath. Lean forward. Keep forward. Pull

:21:48. > :21:58.slowly. Dead slow. Slow,, slow! Oh, my make-up is on the inside of

:21:58. > :22:04.

:22:04. > :22:07.it. Thousand creative is that! The plan is for Davey to make me a

:22:08. > :22:11.prosthetic face. I don't know what it will be and I will not find out

:22:11. > :22:19.until it is finished. They are a busy team. They have been working

:22:19. > :22:23.on a major drama. We have been doing the Body Farm. From our point

:22:23. > :22:29.of view it is a fantastic opportunity. We are going to make a

:22:29. > :22:33.load of decome position bodies, set in tropical, heat and arid, things

:22:33. > :22:37.like that. It is a great opportunity to play for loads of

:22:37. > :22:41.forensic stuff. This is my promise to the victim - I will do whatever

:22:41. > :22:50.it takes to unlock the mechanism of your murder.

:22:51. > :22:57.That is where your killer is hiding from justice.

:22:57. > :23:04.The Body Farm, filmed in Manchester and Chester, it is about a team of

:23:04. > :23:09.pathologists. It is not for the faint-hearted. I think all the

:23:09. > :23:15.series of this genre have this, when you are dealing with death,

:23:15. > :23:20.murder, the psychosis of people who commit murders and then I think it

:23:20. > :23:27.is inevitably dark. It also, hopefully, has some humour in it.

:23:27. > :23:32.Davey and the team have been asked to make a prosthetic for an autopsy

:23:32. > :23:37.scene. This actor is getting the same treatment as me, but on his

:23:37. > :23:45.torso. He's been murdered and he's been held under the water about 40

:23:45. > :23:49.feet deep. When he's died, his accomplish has let him shoot up to

:23:49. > :23:59.the service. It looks like he has the bends. When they cut me up,

:23:59. > :24:00.

:24:00. > :24:06.they find out he has not died, it's murder.

:24:06. > :24:09.Normally I like a bottle of wine and flowers.... We will make a

:24:09. > :24:16.prosthetic chest with heart and lungs. He will be laid on the slab.

:24:16. > :24:20.We have to get him into a cast, turn it into a plaster cast and

:24:20. > :24:29.mould it into the prosthetic. other things have you had to

:24:29. > :24:34.replicate for Body Farm? Corpses, skeletons - various stages of

:24:34. > :24:42.decome position. You get a skeleton like leather, so no flesh on it.

:24:43. > :24:48.Tropical, so the body goes bloated. Eyes popping out. Things like that.

:24:48. > :24:53.A handy skill to have at Hallowe'en? Definitely!

:24:53. > :24:58.Now we very carefully pop that off. As well as working on the Body Farm,

:24:58. > :25:04.the team will crack on with my new face. The sculptor explains the

:25:04. > :25:09.process. Once we have your life cast, we need to make a copy, just

:25:09. > :25:16.of your face, we can skult on to. We have clay to build up the make-

:25:16. > :25:20.up. Once we have it made, we create a mould in plaster. We put in

:25:20. > :25:25.silicon, to create the final piece. It can be attached to your face,

:25:25. > :25:31.like this one I made earlier. Three weeks later the Body Farm is

:25:31. > :25:41.in studio. Tara is going to carry out an autopsy, Brendan is playing

:25:41. > :25:42.

:25:46. > :25:50.the prosthetic. How are you finding working prosthetics? Some are

:25:50. > :25:55.gruesome, aren't they? I am always intrigued by them. I find them

:25:55. > :26:01.beautiful n a way. Almost like sculptors. You are aware when you

:26:02. > :26:08.are dealing with them, you are aware of the work, the artistry

:26:08. > :26:13.that has gone into them. I can't watch them, I don't watch Waking

:26:13. > :26:20.The Dead. You don't watch your own stuff?

:26:20. > :26:29.this kind of stuff. I am a bit of a whimp.

:26:29. > :26:35.Right. Everyone stop what you're doing. A drama centred on medicine

:26:35. > :26:40.runs the risk of dropping clangers. Fortunately the Body Farm has a

:26:40. > :26:44.resident expert on hand. Some have been amazing with what they have

:26:44. > :26:48.done, latex and silicon. When you see them for the first time, you

:26:48. > :26:57.think wow, that is so impressive. Once you see the final edit they

:26:57. > :27:01.look amazing. So, how do you think that went?

:27:01. > :27:07.It's a bit scary at first. Basically because it comes together

:27:07. > :27:11.after weeks apart of bringing little bits to the table. Once

:27:11. > :27:19.everybody chipped in our department it came together. If they don't say

:27:19. > :27:25.anything like it. That's the best thing You can go and have a cup of

:27:25. > :27:31.tea now. A cup of tea - that would be nice. A few weeks later Davey is

:27:31. > :27:41.back at base for my big day. I am going to get my new look. I don't

:27:47. > :27:54.What do you think of it so far? want to take the teeth out. Take

:27:54. > :28:01.the teeth out. It is great. What the hell am I? Who are you!

:28:01. > :28:05.More to the point you are a Who, like a Grinch character. How long

:28:05. > :28:09.does it take to create these kind of effects? Three hours or so. A

:28:09. > :28:14.lot of detail into the silicon and blending it. Today we have rushed

:28:14. > :28:19.it and got you done and dusted in an hour or so. Normally it is a

:28:20. > :28:23.three-hour make-up. It goes to show f you have time, patience and make-

:28:23. > :28:31.up special effects artists, you too could look as good as me. Here's

:28:31. > :28:38.one for the album! Well, that's all from me. Remember
