Ricky hears from people who have gone through a period of transformation in their lives, and have ended up taking a very different road to the one they started on. With the wisdom they've acquired along the way, Ricky finds out how they look back on their younger selves.
Hugh Collins was serving a life sentence for murder when he first came across art and sculpture in Barlinnie's 'special unit'. Discovering a talent for, and love of art, helped the Glasgow hard man turn his life around, and he now lives a quiet and content life in the Borders with his wife and dog. Ricky speaks to Hugh about this transformation and asks him what he'd say were he to meet that young angry man that he once was.
