Gang violence making front-page news is commonplace. It creates stories - and reputations.

40 years after the event, Denise Mina speaks to the people of Easterhouse about the legacy of Frankie Vaughan.

This high-profile pop star will forever be remembered for making rival gang leaders in the Glasgow suburb shake hands and give up their knives.

This programme looks at the reality on the ground and in the press, and the relationship between the two.

Producer: Victoria McArthur

First broadcast on 成人论坛 Radio Scotland in December 2008.
