Freddie is a good man he only did what he had to do to provide for his family and if someone was dumb enough to get in his way that's their problem compared to most villians Freddie is a gentleman until you upset him
Could listen to Freddie all day, the last real Gangster standing. Gave no fux and took no 💩 off anyone. What a life and what a Geezer, there'll never be another like him. Nuff Respect
Freddie Foreman was the man ! Also anyone doubting Dave Courtney then if Freddie Foreman thought he was an asshole he wouldn’t be getting interviewed by him . Freddie Foreman was main man and well respected. Unlike Krays who were just taxmen and bullies and didn’t do any villainy themselves . Freddie Foreman was top man as was Charlie Richardson too . Both gentlemen but you don’t take liberties with them .
I'm one of the very few people who can positively say: none of my family (including my "nan") ever met the Krays. Therefore we as a family, and I as their spokesperson cannot claim with any certainty that they were "polite, proper lovely gentlemen". I'm sorry to be the one who tells you all, but it's true.
@@shaunteasdale6613 Sounds like you're seeking a straightener on the cobbles... which is something my other grandfather has never lost at (over 4000 fights).
You cannot help but Love Freddie. The Flying Bombs , " Doodle Bugs " as MY Grandparents called them. No one even in this present day likes the pain and suffering that any war brings . But it's still nice even at the Age I'm at "67" to hear the voice of The Great British Spirit. Quality!!!
This is a great bit of history here. I'd never have thought Dave Courtney would go before Freddie. RIP Dave. Never met you but weirdly, felt like i did👊🏿🙏🏿
What a lovely man (not in a gay way) I didn't want this program to end. The passion he speaks with, the cricket bags for instance telling us about the quality of it, I know it was stuffed with money is a bonus. I've heard of Mr Foreman but I don't know why I've never listened to his stories. I've had to pause it so it lasts longer. Quality, brilliant man.
My grandmother lived in London and met Freddie many times and even cut his hair and said how much of a nice man he was but didn’t know about the extent of criminality he was involved in.
Fred Foreman said my late grandfather Alexander Thomson was a man of honour . Fred's autobiography answered a family mystery in regards to my beloved grandfather. Thank you Fred , god bless
The Kray Brothers, armed with shotguns, demand "Drop Yer Underpants!" They Bank staff reply " Give us a chance Ronnie!" Ronnie Replies OK " Swing Em!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember years ago, i was at my friend Chrissies, on the TV news was on and it said about most wanted in Spain. Freddie was in Brixton having a cup of Tea with us. Lol xx
I used to see Frankie Fraser in Bermondsey and Walworth Road regularly. If you said hello, he'd always stop and take the time for a chat. Was a nice enough gentleman considering his gangster past. For the record, my neighbour above me is related to the Richardsons. Nice to know that lol.. Great show mate 👌🏻❤️ subscribed 🤝🏻
I used to see Frank round East Street market I'm surprised how small stature he is but he was very polite impeccable manners my wife's granddad's cousin twice removed,Aunty was related too his ex wife!
Shaun mate I love your channel it’s one of the best and the guests you have are perfectly chosen you are also a legend my friend keep it up high 5 to you both 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Foreman was a product of his back ground and times. I think I he only had it in for other rogues, not you’re average Joe. Given the cards he was dealt it’s a miracle he survived the era he was raised in. I think time softens the heart and I’m glad he seems to have mellowed and has perspective with age.x
Could someone please tell me the benefits of learning this, I understand the 5 ways of playing the same chord up and down the neck, but not sure how to use the scales over the top of the chords.
It’s cruel, stupid and naive of people to say that gangsters are a danger to people when they can be the nice people who had a history of a dysfunctional past behind them. I’ve done time and many of the gang members I’ve met in my life till now are very nice even humble and respectful towards those whom they meet. And I learnt from them that all of them have legitimate businesses alongside the shady ones which they do run, of course. One must never judge an individual by the cover but know the man within. What people don’t realize is that anyone can become a gangster or made man of a mob because of the circumstances of which they faced. Once you get to know them to a personal level, they’re just like us. Especially when I’d like to express my support their views of never hurting children or woman. For the record, they have thought me how to defend myself as well as the method I use for my art pieces using ballpoint pens to great success when they never encouraged violence. Great man these people. They even struck up a relationship with me because I was the only French guy in during that time and they always asked the guards if I could practice with them. As they had properties in France as they were both British. They even extended their an invitation to come seek them out if I do return to France.
For Dave to say Krays were nothing is funny RIP Dave but they were not nothing they did the business a few times. Theres video of dave knocking doors of OAPs trying to collect £10 debts.........
Its common knowledge that the Krays were intimidated by foreman they would never cross him, foreman is known for being a straight talking bloke and doesn't exaggerate infact he plays his life down if anything
Freddie is the real.deal but krays were bullies and extortion artists even in the nick reg took the piss getting phone cards and making you wait so long to get the money and in wayland he was always drunk
Couldn't wear turtles everyone be looking🤣proper old school gentleman you are freddie great to hear your story.people don't realise you weren't a liberty taker and you had morales who needs to be dealt with and innocent people don't get hurt.not like nowadays this generation needs to have respect and listen to how things should get done if they are going into a life of crime which never ends well anyway.prison is the end result eventually.respect and peace all the way 🙏💯❤
52:45 Dave Courtney saying the krays were fuck all, that’s a bit rich comeing from him, the krays funeral made him apart from that what’s he done FUCK ALL, Dave was a comedian not a gangster to even put gangster next to he’s name is a joke so he’s got no right even commenting on the krays

Freddie Foreman. A true living old school legend, I’m from that manner and look up and respect men like Freddie. Great watch interview. 👍🏻
Manor.
You should not look upto robbers and thieves mate

Freddie is and was a proper mobster who never went for regular folk.
freddie had morals not like some other mobsters proper geezer our freddie

Not heard much on Mr Foreman recently hope he's in good health & is doing alright ❤👍

You mean to say not even your uncle drove them about? Wtf
You mean... your nan's bruvver, whose whose mate had a mum and dad who had a shop in th Mile End Rd... your saying neither of us met th Krays😊😅😂....
Well that’s not correct, I know your grandad and he often used to recount stories of them back in the day
@@shaunteasdale6613 Sounds like you're seeking a straightener on the cobbles... which is something my other grandfather has never lost at (over 4000 fights).
Nobody cares son
rip dave!!!! what a slice of history
You cannot help but Love Freddie. The Flying Bombs , " Doodle Bugs " as MY Grandparents called them. No one even in this present day likes the pain and suffering that any war brings . But it's still nice even at the Age I'm at "67" to hear the voice of The Great British Spirit. Quality!!!
Freddie, what a living legend
absolute legend love him and his stories - I wish he would never go seriously
See his eyes sparkle when he started chatting about his big security job.
Foreman still alive at 91, shows who was the top dog.
This is a great bit of history here. I'd never have thought Dave Courtney would go before Freddie. RIP Dave. Never met you but weirdly, felt like i did👊🏿🙏🏿

Freddie was the real deal…he had it all back in the day👍🏻
could handle himself back in the day
Saw a bloke in Shoreditch with a t shirt on which said "NEVER MET THE KRAYS".
A Dwarf comes up to me and says, "Im not Happy!"
So Fred replies, "So which one are you then?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Respect to Freddie London's top man
My grandmother lived in London and met Freddie many times and even cut his hair and said how much of a nice man he was but didn’t know about the extent of criminality he was involved in.
Who cares?
@@davejones2823 well you cared enough to respond. 😂 🤦♂️
@@wjtgbio5218 that's merely your ego talking

42:33 Sneezy, Bashful, Sleepy, **Happy**, Grumpy, Dopey!! You're a proper Legend Freddie, always have been, always shall be. Love ya fella, always

Loving the recent content shaun keep pumping these bangers out
Thanks! please share where you can as it really helps the channel grow
I can see why Jamie is such a good actor, Nill by mouth ,top film
I remember years ago, i was at my friend Chrissies, on the TV news was on and it said about most wanted in Spain. Freddie was in Brixton having a cup of Tea with us. Lol xx
Bet you sucked him after you watched that.
Did he like a biscuit with his tea???
How many sugars did he have in his tea.
The Godfather and MD of British Crime .. Fred Foreman is the real McCoy
You can tell that Mr Foreman had no time for the Krays
@ 1:18:53 Courtney Farts in the Bog lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@ 1:19:38 Bog gets flushed 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have always liked Mr.foreman, godbless you Dave.....RIP
You can hear him getting annoyed with himself for forgetting things . Considering his age and lifestyle he is incredibly sharp
Class interview could listen all day 2 his stories
I used to see Frankie Fraser in Bermondsey and Walworth Road regularly. If you said hello, he'd always stop and take the time for a chat. Was a nice enough gentleman considering his gangster past.

That's a great photo-portrait of Freddy Foreman; credit must go to Foreman as it is his facial expression that makes this a great portrait.
🍿
ready and waiting..
looks brilliant.!
✌🏻🇦🇺🌏🤘🏻
Minds me of my dad.. respect.❤
This is Brilliant, I'll check out Mike F tonight 🇬🇧 Great work
I like the picture of Freddie in the thumbnail. In his prime, 60's hard man.
Shaun mate I love your channel it’s one of the best and the guests you have are perfectly chosen you are also a legend my friend keep it up high 5 to you both 🏴🏴🏴🏴
He's no legend get real bufoon
I think the Krays definitely had an intimidating presence 100 percent you only have to look at the photos or videos
Maybe in 1970, but London today there are mostly Albanian and Jamaican gangs tearing up the TURF.😂
I'd pay good money to have a chat with Forman, interesting guy.
Decent enough podcast, but Cheesy Adverts about VPN & Cheesy Adverts, or unconvincing stuttering sunglasses adverts, would put your head away.
Anyone that thinks the Krays ran things , should watch this ...
Foreman was a product of his back ground and times. I think I he only had it in for other rogues, not you’re average Joe. Given the cards he was dealt it’s a miracle he survived the era he was raised in. I think time softens the heart and I’m glad he seems to have mellowed and has perspective with age.x
Be under no illusion. They didn't call this guy drop-dead Fred for nothing!
So it’s been done with Brendan and Co FairPlay 👍
Is Dave counrty present in this interview shaun? loved Dave funny guy shame he's gone
love Fred....true legend of british history
Could someone please tell me the benefits of learning this, I understand the 5 ways of playing the same chord up and down the neck, but not sure how to use the scales over the top of the chords.
What??? Buffoon
Did Freddie ever worked at the Astor Club Mayfair 1?
If that's your bird, you are punching mate!
When was this recorded?
Does anyone know where Freddie is now? Hope he’s keeping well wherever he is
He’s in a nursing home.
Mind your own business😂
@@FreedomPlatform23prick
Apparently he's in a nursing home
@@pauldolman93 in mader vale ???
when was this recorded?
Great interview
Thanks for watching
Proper old school gangster who was staunch all his life and never heard eny body speak badly about him so fair play to him.
Great stories. Thanks.
Id love fred to be my grandad you can tell hes got a good heart
At 1:04:47 when he says f ing yeah right.. u see that Fred how he may have been years back
Enjoyed that 👍👍👍
Great video apart from the interruptions from Sean.
What a awesome guy, fantastic cast x
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome? What's Awesome about murdering gangster. Shouldn't be given air time.
Love little IGGY GETTIN STRONG. AND JAN LOOKEN GREAT
Separating all the bullshit and bollocks from that era. This man was the only proper geezer from that time.
Ollie whitlock was the guy who had the bullet lodged in his spine he was one of the guys on the abitoure robbery,,,
Eye opening
nothing about the mitchill murder and we all no he did it.
Doesn’t that make the krays quite sensible not going out doing the crimes but getting a cut one the crime had been done?
The krays were both gay yet the gay communities never use them for clout 🤷♂️
Fred myst be well into his 70s in this video- but still doesn't look like he'd take any disrespect
Fred nice one. ❤
The kray twins should left Fred alone

Non of em had the bollocks to come up north. Mancs and scousers wouldn’t wear it. We done work but ultimately sent em back.
It's easy to talk shit about people who aren't here anymore. I wish either Ron or Reg was still alive now. I'd love to hear there version of events.
Its common knowledge that the Krays were intimidated by foreman they would never cross him, foreman is known for being a straight talking bloke and doesn't exaggerate infact he plays his life down if anything
Freddie is the real.deal but krays were bullies and extortion artists even in the nick reg took the piss getting phone cards and making you wait so long to get the money and in wayland he was always drunk
Believe me on the quiet he was the main man

Freddie is still alive and kicking just in a pair of flip flops and bath robe and locked up in a old folks home
Freddie looks like a shirt lifter, like the Krays, another horses hoof 😂😂😂
