Advantages: Highly original impartial reporting

Disadvantages: None, of course it is violent and some pretty extreme views but you know this

I am completely fascinated by this series and I have to say there is not a single weakness with the show and anyone who believes there is, well I have one question. Would you put yourself out there in front of some of the worlds hardest gangsters, some of the most volatile and unpredictanle men and women on the planet? No, didn't think so. I have a new found respect for Ross Kemp as he puts himself (And the film crew) in front of gangs from El Salvador, Cape Town, St Louis and Moscow. He tries to infiltrate as high up as he can get to try and understand what makes these people tick, and this is what makes this series so good. At no stage does he try to write a one sided story, he meets with people as you and i would on the street and tries to get to know them. the only difference is that these people may just well be murders or drug dealers. But he is neutral throughout unless he meets with someone who he just cannot comprehend in the slightest. Hats of to Mr Kemp and the team to put this together. You are a bigger man than me!

Summary: Respect for Ross Kemp and his crew

Good review, but what's his language like in the book? Does he use complex and fascinating words or does he use informal words like you would expect him to?
