Residents of Woking, a commuter town 23 miles from London, are bemused by claims made in Ross Kemp's new TV show, 'Ross Kemp: Mafia And Britain', that the town has become a hotspot for the Mafia. Many locals, including a food truck owner, have dismissed the assertion as ridiculous, noting the presence of Italian residents does not equate to organized crime. Chris Bird, a 73-year-old resident, acknowledged some criminal activity in Woking, particularly drug-related issues, but expressed skepticism about Mafia involvement. Others, like Jo Chambers, admitted they hadn't heard of any Mafia presence but suggested it wasn't entirely implausible. Kemp argues that the Mafia's choice of less scrutinized locations like Woking allows them to operate under the radar. The show's premise suggests that such towns fill a gap in illegal markets, raising questions about the unseen aspects of seemingly peaceful communities.
