I had an idea for turning the the creature in story "The Nemean Lion" into a modern gang for this reason i have researched into modern gang culture in the U.K.
From my reaseach i have found out that gang tagging
(graffiti) areas to show their territory is popular with modern gangs so the walls of the city the screenplay is based in should be covered in gang tags
Gang members in the U.K. can be as young as fourteen which has given me the idea of putting more youth gangs and youths in gangs in the screenplay

As gangs are common in modern day society i have decided to make Heracles's Twelve labours into Twelve gangs that between them control one city This means ill have to research the other 11 labours to find out more detail so i can develope the gangs.
Gang related deaths, murders and crimes.
The murder of Gary Newlove.
On the 14th of August 2007 Garry Newlove aged 47 was kicked to death by three youths after going outside to confront a gang of youths who were vandalising his car. This may not have been gang related but it involves a group of youths so i believe it is relevant
