Respect (1996 film)

Respect is a single British television drama film, written by Richard LaPlante and directed by Terry Marcel, that first broadcast on 17 December 1996 on ITV.[1] The film stars Nick Berry as Bobby Carr and is based on the early years in the life of notorious East London villain Ray Barton,a professional boxer who is forced to retire from the sport after receiving a serious eye injury during a fight. He attempts to make money through a nightclub scam, but his illegal activities are soon discovered and he is sentenced to community service,where he is forced to teach boxing to teenagers at a local youth club. Scripts for a follow up to the film were blocked after lengthy court proceedings during which Barton’s lawyers also ordered the original film be withdrawn from public sale.
