Harry Brown Page #5

Synopsis: In England, retired Royal Marine Harry Brown spends his lonely life between the hospital, where his beloved wife Kath is terminally ill, and playing chess with his only friend Leonard Attwell in the Barge pub owned by Sid Rourke. After the death of Kath, Len tells his grieving friend that the local gang is harassing him and he is carrying an old bayonet for self-defense; the widower suggests him to go to the police. When Len is beaten, then stabbed to death in an underground passage, Inspector Alice Frampton and her partner Sergeant Terry Hicock are sent to investigate. They pay Harry a visit but don't have good news; the police have not found any other evidence, other than the bayonet, in order to arrest the hoodlums. This mean that should the case go to trial the gang would claim self-defense. Harry Brown sees that justice will not be granted and decides to take matters into his own hands.

has been singled out for

the Queen's Gallantry Medal for Bravery,

along with fellow officer

Detective Inspector Alice Frampton.

Can you confirm

or deny the rumours

that a number of deaths on the estate

are attributed to a vigilante?

Both the findings of the committee

and the police investigation

have found no evidence

to support such a theory.

And, can I just say

on a personal note, Martin,

that type of wild speculation

undermines the work of the police force

and ultimately does a disservice

to members of the public who support it.

Now, as I made clear many months ago

we operate and apply a zero-tolerance policy

with reference to criminal activity

involving firearms

and the distribution of drugs.

Most important,

the findings suggest that

crime on the estate

has declined by almost 30%.

With continued help from members

of the community,

we hope to eradicate the criminal element

who have long since

blighted the lives

of the silent majority.
