Great news as it looks there will be new episodes of Banged up abroad in the near future.  

You'll have to wait a few years as Banged Up episodes always include the part where the protagonist, full of regret at his/ her stupid past actions, has got back to Blighty post release.

Offers can be tempting, with promises of visiting idyllic locations and monetary bonuses of up to £2,000, provided tourists agree to smuggle packages back to the UK or onward to other destinations.

Can't do the time, don't do the crime.

I've noticed a fair few British tiktokers have vanished from Thailand. It was clear what was going on come to think of it.
