- SynopsisA sequel to 'LAST BUS', this semi-dramatised documentary looks at what the subsequent history might have been of the boys in the gang that attacked the conductor in Last Bus, what might have caused the boys to behave in the way they did, and what the nature of their punishment will be. (Synopsis) Follows on from "Last Bus" in the Scene series, showing the possible consequences of their crime for the youngest and eldest boys. An actual Inner London Probation Officer discusses the case of Arthur, the youngest boy, assessing his family background and his prospects of receiving a probationary sentence; and teenagers from various schools give their answers to the question: "If you were the judge, what would you do with the boys?" The probation officer then discusses the eldest boy Robbo, and predicts a custodial sentence; the remainder of the film focuses on Borstal, interviewing a Governor and showing conditions inside.
