BBC1 - programme on illegal dog fighting

BBC are doing a repeat of the Spotlight programme on illegal dogfighting which caused outrage.

It's on BBC1 (or perhaps its 2) at 10.35pm tonight, 11 March

I didn't see it when it was first broadcast, but I heard it was disturbing so consider yourself warned.

Why isn't more being done to stamp out this appalling practise?

Watched a bit of it last night - had to turn away. The punishments weren't half harsh enough for those psycho b******s! What went wrong with them that they find such cruelty to be fun?

I presume its still going on around the place. Has there been any new legislation introduced, as mentioned was going to happen at the end of the programme?

That was the Finnish man, he also got a 6mth discharged sentence, nice to see that the Finnish authorities take dog-fighting seriously *sarcasm*
