DVD. Bangkok Bound. 24 Minutes. Tonight's programme meets the 'full mooners', the British consul who is on the receiving end of Brits' troublesome trips and the mother whose son is currently serving a 50-year sentence for drug smuggling. Three groups of people head off to one of the island of Ko Pha Ngan's infamous full moon parties. Maria is a grandmother who is waiting for a hip replacement operation. She is also a drum and bass DJ and is attending the party along with her friend Harriet. Chris is a seasoned full moon DJ and Steve is moving to the island to open a restaurant (and, of course attend the March full moon party). Brian Kelly is the British consul in Bangkok. He and his team deal with a variety of problems affecting both British travellers in Thailand and British subjects who live in the country permanently. Among the many things he has had to deal with are lost passports, people arrested for drug offences and lads being drugged and robbed by prostitutes. Sheila's son Johnny, 38, is in Bangkok's Bang Kwang prison and is five years into a 50 year sentence for attempting to smuggle 2.5 kilos of heroin out of the country. Johnny took the drugs in a bid topay off a debt to a Thai gambling ring and believes that one of the gang tipped the authorities off. He now lives in a 12 ft by 15 ft cell with up to 30 other prisoners. His mother is allowed one contact visit with her son each year. "Johnny is a wicked boy, he saw a way out of his financial problem. Ha made the biggest mistake of his life, and he's paying for it with his life." Each week 10,000 people travel from Britain to Bangkok and this series takes a closer look at the personal stories behind these journeys.
