They also compare their assessment against four groups judging alongside them.
These groups are comprised of retired judges, retiredpolice officers, relatives of crime victims and former inmates.
Giving her take on the series and sentences, Anne told hosts , 58, and , 54, she had learned: “Shorter sentences and more rehabilitation is what works.”;
Former Labour Shadow Chancellor Ed said: “Though actually that is the opposite of what ...”; before Anne starkly interjected: “I knew you were going to be awkward.”;
Ed, appearing lost for words, then said: “I’m not being awkward.
“I’m just saying, erm.
“Having enjoyed your programme most of the participants take the opposite view, they want longer sentences.”;

One fan was quick to write on X: “‘I knew you were going to be awkward'”;followed by laughing Emoji icons.
Another quizzed: “Why did she have a pop at Ed???”;
