  • Idris Elba says young people in British gangs are 'not big and scary' - Idris Elba: A Year Of Knife Crime is due to be released on BBC One and iPlayer in early 2025.

Idris Elba, known for his role in "Luther," has shared insights into the lives of young people involved in British gangs, emphasizing that they are often not the "big and scary" figures they are portrayed to be. Instead, he describes them as individuals who are "really scared" and caught in a cycle of violence due to systemic issues like poverty and lack of opportunities. Elba, who has been involved in youth work, highlights the need for understanding and addressing the root causes of gang involvement rather than just focusing on the surface-level criminal activities. He advocates for providing these youths with alternatives and support to break the cycle of violence, drawing from his own experiences and observations in his community work.
