Street art legend Blek Le Rat tells the story of street art and talks about how New York graffiti inspired him. One of the first artists to have an impact on the European scene, he pioneered the stencil style which has influenced many, notably Banksy. Plus street artist Rough gives an insight into the underground world of graffiti in the UK.
