Newport - the gateway to Wales. Celebrated in the cult YouTube hit Newport State of Mind, the birthplace of Goldie Lookin' Chain and home to LRS Security, who look after many of the city centre's bars and clubs.

This funny, irreverent and often surprising film follows the boys of Newport's biggest security firm over a summer of booze, brawls and brotherhood.

Out of their HQ above a cafe on the High Street, ambitious MD Richie Davis and doughnut-loving operations director Len Harrhym run a team of loyal lads who manage the drunk and often difficult locals every week.

The boys give a rare insight into what it's like being a bouncer in one of the most distinctive cities in Britain.

Twenty-seven-year-old Joe Gower is a born-and-bred Valley boy; his dry, acerbic wit and tongue-in-cheek human observation are second to none. He was once a top earner in the insurance industry but lost it all in the credit crunch and is now trying to build himself back up again.

Moving to Newport and becoming a doorman saved 21-year-old Jamie Yarnold's life. The regular bouncer on a gay-friendly venue, he was severely bullied from the age of six and ballooned to 21 stone. Now through working on the doors he's finally found the friends and respect he always wanted and even met the love of his life.

University student Geraint Clarke is a natural born charmer and the bouncer philosopher with a love of Oscar Wilde. His Toni and Guy haircut is well known throughout the streets of Newport and he enjoys the camaraderie of his job and all the female attention it brings.
