      I truly believe in Dublin or Belfast they could never have got to such a hight. The media made them and the twins believed all the B.S that was wrote about them , they started to believe they were the untouchable. In Ireland especially in them days people had to respect you not fear you. The twins sent flowers to a dead IRAs man’s father who was serving life in Durham, they were told to fxxk off flowers not welcome. They sent the flowers to buy muscle not to console a convicts grief. They thought they could buy respect from political Irish Reggie even claimed he had Irish blood. This is true I was 22 and remember how creepy Reggie was, I knew nothing of gay things I was an innocent Irish country boy who knew nothing of city life. I was ordered never to talk or take anything from R.K and he was told if he made contact with our people he would be got.

    Great Docu,interesting and wild.i often think that if Ron Kray wasnt so very very sick,the boys may have taken a healthier better direction,I think Ron pulled Regg into the life of crime manipulation,and murder,as only a psychopath with " power and infamy can do,Regg was a more normal,calmer person

      Nah. He was just as much in that life as Ron. By Regg having the cooler head meant he called the shots.

    As usual with these types of videos, the subtitles are completely incorrect most of the time and are absolutely hilarious! The best one on here is at 8 minutes 15 seconds. The actual text is “Ronnie loved the glittery showbiz life” but the subtitle shows “Ronnie dubbed the clitoris”! Rather ironic really!

    As " infamous" as they were,and all the bad things they did..they also had some good in them..lots of poverty stricken kids,grow up to be villains a lot of times,so it was a warmer view of them I had,knowing they were also taking care of the East End poor people,..lots of stuff happens in childhood,some things you " revolt" against when you're older,poverty for instance

    If they made shit loads of money then they could have arranged a discreet escape and pissed off to Brazil. It would have been slightly easier back in the seventies too. They couldn't have been doing that well. It's no good having a life of luxury if it's behind bars.

    The Richardsons were far more successful and didn't seek the limelight like the Krays did. The Krays loved the idea of being gangsters and that was their downfall, coupled with Ronnie's severe mental illness. Richardsons would have kicked their arses also.
