The seven-hour siege only came to an end when the 'tornado team', an elite riot squad charged with keeping Britain's unruly prisoners at bay, stormed the chapel. Eighteen stun grenades were pushed through the shattered windows, before the rioting teenagers were finally brought under control.
When the dust settled the chapel was in ruins and £40,000 damage had been caused, but the six young rioters were under arrest. All had one thing in common - they were from Manchester.
They included Desmond Noonan Jnr, the then 19-year-old son of Manchester crime boss Damien Noonan, who had died in a motorbike crash in the Caribbean two years earlier, and nephew of murdered gangster Desmond Noonan. Others were or would go on to become members of the notorious Gooch gang offshoots Fallowfield Mandem and the Rusholme Crips, including convicted gang boss Zico Reid.

Trouble flared on February 13, 2005 during the Sunday morning church service at the Deerbolt Young Offender's Institution, a former army camp near Barnard Castle, County Durham. Conducted by the Rev Daniel Hartley, the congregation included 29 inmates and three Deerbolt staff.
But just after 9am the teenage gang 'went mental', a court would later hear. They began hurling abuse and, before prison staff could react, pelted the shocked vicar with chairs.
As the wardens ran to get help, Noonan and company barricaded themselves into the chapel. Inmates unwilling to take part managed to escape by breaking a window and climbing out.
Then chaos ensued. The gang drank the communion wine, dressed up in the vicar's vestments and daubed graffiti on the walls writing Satan had sent them.

Margot Robbie, the Spice Girls were no feminist wannabes.In fact, the two-time Oscar nominee attributes some of her own ideas about feminism — which she and director Greta Gerwig explore in the much-anticipated “Barbie” movie, out July 21 — to the 1990s British girl group.“The Spice Girls changed everything and dictated my version of second-wave feminism,” Robbie, 33, told Rolling Stone.“It’s like, ‘Oh my God, they wear little sparkly dresses and push-up bras and then have a girl gang? That’s what I want to be!’”Growing up in the ’90s, the Aussie-born Robbie also had a pink passion for the Aqua bop “Barbie Girl.” At the urging of the “Babylon” actress, the 1997 hit was included on the “Barbie” soundtrack — reworked as a “Barbie World” duet featuring rappers Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice.“I was like, ‘Greta, how are we going to incorporate this song? We can’t do a Barbie movie and not have a nod to Aqua’s ‘Barbie Girl.’ It has to be in there,’” Robbie told a reporter.
