It's actually free

Just free personal safety alarms

On behalf of Town 102

Local radio station in Ipswich

Just handing away free personal alarms

Because of what's...

In the wake of what's been happening

In Ipswich recently

Everyone is very, very nervous... erm

And very unsure of everything

Basically

So, yeah, yeah, definitely

Obviously a lot of people

Are going out for the weekend

We're gonna be a bit worried

So we're handing out

Personal alarms to... erm

Out to all the ladies out shopping today

So that's... so that's why we're here

Everyone's very brave

Everybody's very brave

Everyone is very, very nervous

...wonderful time

- Can I have one for my daughter, please?

- Yes, certainly. Of course you can.

Obviously a lot of people

Going out for the weekend

We're gonna be a bit worried

So, erm, they're handing out

Personal alarms to, erm...

Out to all the ladies out shopping today

So that's... so that's why they're here

Obviously a lot of people

Going out for the weekend

They're gonna be a bit worried

So, erm, they're handing out

Personal alarms to, erm...

Out to all the ladies out shopping today

So that... so that's why they're here

- Very, very

- Very, very

- Very, very

- Very, very

- Very, very

- Nervous

But they do say it's somebody.

Either a policeman or a lawyer.

We hoped it was an immigrant,

from nish-noff land.

- If it is, there'll be an uproar.

- And we'll send the f***ers all back.

No, I-I-I'm not like that. I'm sure

you're not really like that deep down.

I f***ing am.

I reckon it's one Polish bastard.

We'll f***ing have him.

- You automatically think it could be him.

- Yeah.

That's the scary thing.

That he could be amongst us.

Walking around us every day

and we don't know.

Yeah!

- It could be anyone in here.

- Yeah.

Which has now really scared me

now I'm thinking about it!

I'm just gonna, like, cry!

But they do say it's somebody.

Either a policeman or a lawyer.

Or a priest!

This was on the radio.

Always utter rubbish on Suffolk Radio.

Well, we've never had

anything like that before. No.

We're all a bit... frightened

to go out at night. Yeah.

But then we are anyway.

Some people say that

they're terrified of going anywhere.

Well, goodness me, there's a...

There's a mass murderer on the loose.

A psychopath. On the loose.

Dreadful. Dreadful.

It's as though somebody's

chucked acid over you

and you can feel it all over you.

It's... Standing here, you can feel it.

We're all guilty.

No, we're not.

No, we're not. No, we're not!

Just one person is or whatever ends up

being the final tally, but...
