- Опубліковано 4 лют 2024
- 'Mad' Frank Fraser tells Liam Galvin how he attacked Executioner Albert Pierrepoint on the day he hung Derek Bentley. Derek was hanged for the murder of a policeman during a burglary attempt & later pardoned. The film 'Let Him Have It! told the story of what happened.
I'm glad to read the comments and see that most people don't believe this BS.
I knew a few old school East Enders and they told me that Frazer would be in his neighbours houses robbing what little they had when they were in the air raid shelter during the blitz.
London1604@ Thats how he got into criminality, burgling houses during an air raid. All the local bobbies were not patrolling at the time for obvious reasons so he had a clear run.
low life
What a C word.
@@gerwulfthered154 He said himself that he had "a lovely war".
Dont let the truth get in the way of a good story Frankie . The stories my late beautiful grandad told me about Fraser and how he would never stop talking when cornered
Utter Bollox. Ive read several books on Pierrepoint and his family, including his own autobiography. Every one of those books goes into great detail on the Bentley execution. Dont you think at least one of them would have mentioned this account?
They dont.
Yeah, this story Is absolute nonsense. There Is no way that he could have got anywhere near Pierrpoint or the condemned cell.
My great gran was good friends with Albert's wife, and so knew him as well. As a result I've done some research on Pierrpoint and the whole process, and I've never come across this account - which should be Infamous If true.
@@darkestfox-metal Why couldn't he get near Pierrepoint and the condemned cell when it was in the centre of the prison? He said he was not locked in a cell because he was sick.
@tophatanimation8748 A sick prisoner cannot be confined to a cell unless a doctor says so. It's possible the doctor had two simultaneous commitments and asked to see the sick men near to the condemned cell before sending them to their cells. The prison would have wanted to clear the hospital, because sick prisoners are able to move about and the body would have been taken to the hospital mortuary. You are guessing that, Pierrepoint would have mentioned being slapped in the course of his duty.
True....and I don't think it did happen but Albert was a notorious fanny merchant who told lots of porkies in his biography
@tophatanimation8748 because the Authorities would cover it up
A bullshiter the prison always went into lock down until the execution was over.
I would’ve thought so.
Spent most of his life in prison. Worked out well that didn't it.
All criminals are liars, and Fraser was clearly no exception
My father was a journalist reporting crime in South London at the time of Craig and Bentley. He became friends with Derek Bentley's mum and dad during the court case and was at their home when the telegram was delivered telling them that the then Home Secretary, David Maxwell Fyfe, had rejected their plea for mercy. That was Derek's last chance of a reprieve.
My dad remained in contact with Derek's sister Iris Bentley for many years as she fought for his conviction to be quashed. Sadly she died the year before it was finally overturned in 1998.
Thanks for that Mike! Your dad no doubt had many experiences that should be told and remembered.
I don't think Bentley's conviction was o returned but he was Pardoned - I think there is a difference.
No, the conviction was overturned in 1998. Easy to verify.
What a first class 🔔 end.
Well this is absolute bollocks, isn't it? There is no way this really happened.
Why, it happened if you open your eyes a little.
@JohnJohn-zn8ib I think it probably didn't happen as onthe morning of an execution the prison is on lockdown for this reason and to stop a full scale riot.
@@ant259 in ur tiny mind that’s never stepped outside of ur tiny world. It might be bolloks to you that’s most likely because you have led a very sheltered life. You don’t understand the type of man you are listening too. You might make up a story. But this guy has no need to! He’s the real deal for a reason.
@@Bendog300 he’s a full of it and talks utter crap! 🤣👍
5 foot nothing and what he lacked in height he made up for in bullshit
Brilliant !
Nice video film update.
My Dad knew Uncle Franky.
Respect to that story.
Power To The People .
And if you believe that.... A prison always went on lockdown ahead of an execution. No way would a prisoner, much less a known violent one, be lounging around in reach of the condemned cell.
Load of old guff I’ve never read that anywhere. where was the assistant as he would of been present likely and the perpetrations very stringent and quiet not a footstep should be heard near the cell by which a priest would be present this is cock n bull
Yes Fraser is talking Bollocks
Still living in his fantasy world
@@petermacleod5710 I don't think he is in a good place now ,.might be a bit hot .
@@petermacleod5710 he's been dead for years.
My dad was on that execution in 1953. I don't ever recall him telling me about this. Furthermore, The Chief Officer would have been there and the governor, not just the hangmen.
What I do know though is that all the prison was on lockdown when an execution was in progress. No exceptions...ever!
In those days they had metal/enamelled cups, My dad said that no matter what was tried the trapdoor could always be heard all over the prison when it fell, upon which, all of the prisoners would hammer on their cell door with their cup.
My dad was quite affected by Bentley and told us about it when I was just young. The assistant executioner was Harry Allen and his wife told me that when he got home, he said, "We should never have hanged that lad."
Any corroboration for this unlikely old lag's tale? Pierrepoint makes no mention of it in his autobiography.
He would never have met Albert
I can't see them bringing him through any corridors where inmates were, hence doing it at 9ams. ??
They had the executioners assigned to their own cell block until the execution, the prison population never saw them. It’s a total load of lies.
@@Dessan01 Very true! Absolutely 100% correct. This is just lies from Fraser, he's making shit up!
@@SenorSol Agreed. If this dick had one of his cowardly murders pinned to him, during the time capital punishment was still in effect and he had met Pierrepoint as a customer, there would have been a puddle on the trap door prior to the lever being pulled. This idiot was a mouthy little dwarf nothing more, hate how they always tried to paint themselves as Robin Hood, working class hero's, sticking up for the people they came from. They committed crime because they wanted an easy, work free life, nothing more.
Met him briefly in Liverpool when he was being interviewed by Liverpool Echo. A gent with a sense of humour, Bentley was not a murderer.
Bentley didn't pull the trigger but he was involved in a common purpose crime and, therefore, was equally guilty as Craig. That was the Law.
Read Pierrepoint's autobiography, strange he left that bit out.
Exactly! Coz it’s a load of crap/ lies
Like a lot of Fraser's stories: a lot of bullshit. He wouldn't have been anywhere near Pierrepoint, much less close enough to attack him. Absolute bullshit.
Completely agree with you
It has just reminded me of a tale journalist Brian Reade tells of interviewing Frankie in a pub back in the day and him telling him such a gruesome tale about torturing someone that he had to make an excuse and go outside to compose himself. When he came back in Frankie asked him where he had got to and he made the excuse that he had been phoning his daughter who was having her first holy Communion that day, Frankie replied ah a Catholic I was brought up Catholic it never leaves you, you know.😅
Wait till you are in bed before you start dreaming .
Very interesting. Not crazy about prison violence, or anything but it had a certain humanity and decency to the whole thing. And I’m sure Derek’s last hours were improved by that. Hopefully it was a comfort assuming he heard it.
Frankie had such a good memory for names, dates and details of past time's events.
God rest his soul. 🙏🏻
Are you in touch with Marilyn Wisbey, Liam? It would be so nice for you to interview her. She has always been a beautiful woman, with a beautiful voice too. Her singing is very pleasant to listen to.
Not in touch with her but have interviewed her in the past - all the best
A fake hard man for sure
He's talked some bollocks over the years but this takes the biscuit.
Always well turned out was Mr Fraser. Proper old school character
I worked with a chap who claimed that he attacked the krays with a studded belt. Yea right. 😂🤣🤣🐱🐱.
Frazer never fancied his chances with. Big frank Mitchell the mad axe man. Did he
He did like to tell a story🙄🙄🙄
Spent over 40 years in prison and some people call him a legend ,
Bell end
he taught dave courtney how to tell a good story
This guy was all mouth
I am happy we can look back at Videos of this great man. He can still teach us a lot of good through his words but also how to turn negatives into positives with respect & humility. A true Gentleman as well as a Hardman when required. RIP Frank 🙏
If you listen to freddie foreman he says that Fraser was a horrible little man who was only brave when the numbers were heavily in his favour. .
Freddie is the real deal.
Why do so many claim bullshido ? Sounds truthful to me
Sounds like bollocks to me.
@@davidhoward4715 lololol 🤣🤣🤣🤣😃❤️
@@CharlesStevenage couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it.
Jackanory story
What’s that smell? Oh yeah Bullshit!!! 😂
A very revealing account there
Komplete krappo

Was he tied to a chair?
Old School British Gangster no Civilians no Kids no Women RIP Frank from Glasgow 😎🇬🇧
He broke into houses whilst men were away fighting in the war lol
Liked to have met him, bought him a pint and had a nice chat.
Pierrepont didn't drink
A man that would never give in
Double F is full of more chit than a Christmas turkey.
Sad what happened to Derek poor guy had brain of a child.
I know who id have wanted to watch my back top bloke frank 👍👍👍 staunch man more bottle than most of them
I think Frank jumped the shark there 😅

It’s bollox.
The world is a worse place without the Old school Gangsters in it and Frankie Frazer is one of them , RIP Frankie 😢
It might be for Londoners. 🙄
He was a house breaker during the war😂
@@acorncsyup, the lowest of the low
i was on a visit in highdown he walked in all four foot of him his boy was doing a 5 for coke
😂😂😂😂😂that story is so made up 😅i wonder if he wanted cheese with that whoper meal
Utter bullshit
He wasn’t brave enough to go fight the Germans in WWII.
He was an old school gangster my dad knew him when he lived in London. He said he was a good guy but he told a lot of stories,a bit like fishermen's tales don't believe all he said in other words
Lots people talk badly of Mad Frank I had a day in pub with him once with his son David who i worked with it was one of the funniest happy days i ever had he was so funny and storys he told us were hilarious R.I.P Frank.
If that was the happiest day of your life you really have reached rock bottom mate.
@@Utopian_Turtletop-vn1iu mate get a life you sad man 👍
If that was one of the highlights of your life, then your life must have been dreadful. I bet you wouldn't have thought Mad Frankie had you in a headlock while he pulled out your teeth with pliers.
@Utopian_Turtletop-vn1iu he had the Time of his life and he shared it all with you and he's never felt this way before
@@Utopian_Turtletop-vn1iuand I swear it's the truth and he owes it all to you hu hu huuuu
I have pierpoints autobiography and he makes no reference to this incident .I personally do not believe it
How many mugs have believed a word this old Tom Pepper says?
Ruth Ellis had a son not a daughter !
@@jezburford she had 2 children 1 son Andy who was 10 even she died, he later committed suicide, & her daughter georgina died from cancer
Not much up to French, is he, mad Frank.
Fraser was a lowlife, not the "gentleman criminal" some journalists like to make him.
😂😂😂😂
Good old frank❤
This is pure fantasy island it’s never been noted anywhere it more likely be published in the paper , hangman assaulted by nutter ‘
R.I.P. Mr Frazer.
#thingsthatdidnthappen…..
👍🇺🇸🗽🇬🇧👍
Frankie frazer , beast back in day , u nee him he was ok
What are you taking about? He’s a tossed and a liar.
ah such a lovely kind thoughtfull man,like when he writes in one of his books about being a coward and not wanting to fight in ww2,and tells about how in the blackout while his neighbours where in the bomb shelters he would be burglarising their houses,even when he found a dead women in one,nice man,so clever to,spent all his life in prison,only time he made any money was by telling boring stories about how unclever he was,died penniless in a run down old peoples home,brain dead.
A lot of people slag Frankie off but he was a nice fella along with Charlie and Eddie Richardson they were who they were I grew up around them and they was all nice guys who always helped out there own. Other Villains were not so lucky.
His son "young mad Frankie Fraser" went up to Liverpool. Went into a pub and announced himself as "young mad Frankie Fraser" at which point someone at the bar said "shut the door on your way out Mad Frank". He just turned and left. Shithouse
Yawn
Fraser was a great bullshitter
Frank , was hard case , he was a gangster and kray was at war .but a certain someone , brought togther brought peace . But frank was ok to me
Sad Frankie Fraser, bullshit maker.
I liked frankie as he wss now comical guy makes my day
total nonsense
He’s good at reading a script 😂😂
Lovely story but the only witnesses to Franks version of events would have been a long time dead whilst he was spinning his yarn. He was known as a prolific liar throughout his life so I don’t believe him at all. RIP Derek Bentley, it was truly despicable what they done to you.
Typical gangster, a born liar
There a Real HArd case ! 🫡💪
Utter load of bollocks!
