Siege: Episode 1

By Katherine Jakeways, Eno Mfon and Darragh Mortell.

Everybody remembers the Siege, when for 24 hours the whole world was watching a small South London branch of a global supermarket chain. You’ve seen the news, the crazy conspiracy blogs and Naomi’s infamous Snap. Now for the first time the hostages tell the inside story of what really happened on those two dark days in December.

Episode 1. For 5 shoppers and a security guard, it’s just another day in the supermarket until a masked man walks in with a gun.
