A documentary has lifted the lid on a culture of boozing, violence and racism at Strangeways prison in the years before the infamous riot of 1990.
Inmates said they were routinely called 'n***er', 'c**n' and 'P**i' by staff, some of whom openly wore National Front badges.
A senior prison officer at the time told the latest episode of ITV 1's Britain's Most Notorious Prisons there were 'good people and not so good people' but he had never witnessed any brutality.
