Freddie was a real one, of all the old timers who tell a story, he's one of the few who was more than he says he was, no glamour, no embellishing just the truth as he saw it.
He weren't that smart. He stayed in Spain and got nicked. Spain and UK had plugged the extradition loop-hole in 1985 because of the amount of criminals hiding out there and the Costa del Sol being a well known criminal safe-haven and community for UK criminals. Freddie was nicked in 1989 and still to this day thinks it was illegal and that the Spanish government had no legal basis to extradite him because he never did anything wrong in Spain. He clearly doesn't understand what extradition means or how the political situation had changed between Spain and UK by the mid-80's. Extradition means the country you did a crime in can make a request for you to be extradited to face justice. Although the Spanish-UK extradition treaty wasn't formerly signed until 2001 due to the amount of rising drugs and violent crime caused by British criminals hiding out in Spain, there was a new understanding reached in 1985 between Spain and UK, that criminals could be extradited under the existing Interpol international arrest warrant system in place. So that's how the UK police were able to arrest and extradite Freddie and why Spain's police were happy to do the arresting and fly him back to UK.

The disarming thing about him is he is very polite and reasonably quitely spoken.but he didn't need to shout ,his nickname was brown bread Fred in rhyming slang.
In my eyes Freddie Foreman was king of the old school gangsters. Love hearing the old stories I've ever heard. Good stuff. Life was different back then, no cameras everywhere and proper gentlemen too.
Yes. A gentle man is always the sort of villienous thug who'd resort to shooting a man in the head rather than use straight talk and tell him to his face 'To beat it, that he is no longer wanted'.
I've always known who Fed was lived close to him throughout the sixties I never heard a bad word about him. He was respected by everyone straight or crooked
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT AND HAVE YOU NOTICED, THE OLDER GANGSTERS FROM SAY THE 50'S,60'S AND EVEN 70'S WERE SORT OF GENTLEMEN CROOKS IT SEEMS AS IF LATER ON IT JUST BECAME MORE TACKY
Ahhh, the Punch Bowl at the end. Used to drink with Fred & Tony in there. Tony's 60th birthday was there and I met Lennox Lewis, Barbara Windsor and a few other celebs as well. Proper night that was.
Bernard was nothing more than a doorman employed by Tony Tucker just as important as the other 20-30 doorman that Tony employed but somehow he's made out that he lucky he wasn't in the range rover that night? Bernard was as important to the Essex boys as the man that cleaned the toilet.
@@labrador-fx3fb yep he's made his own little story out of this for the simple reason to make money and nobody wants to listen to a foot soldier they want to hear it from one of the general's so that's what he done and it's working for him so it is what it is but the people who was around that time know the truth about him and his part he played and his part was just a doorman nothing more. So you was 1 of his cats and what was your role? I never met Tony and only met pat in prison but know people that new the them all.

Spot on word sound .Its disgusting so many on here are lauding this guy .He tortured and murdered countless people and to condone that is totally sick.
@@marksmith7425 Freddie Foreman never tortured anybody for a start. And the "countless" people he killed were Ginger Marks and Frank Mitchell. That's 2 people. Marks was killed for shooting Foreman's brother with a shotgun, and Mitchell was killed for threatening to kill the Krays, who were Fred's partners. I don't think anybody other than teenage boys look up to these guys, but the rest of us are interested in the stories and history of it. World War 2 was a terrible thing, yet people are fascinated by it, from the weapons used to the battles won. But I don't think many people are lauding Hitler. This is no different.
A Principalled Man, NEVER off Your Own, Only Insurance companies. If you have a University Education and you use the system your hailed a fuckin Hero , A Proper Man with a Heart and Morals Bless Him X Mark
Doesnt have much of a heart. Put five bullets into Mitchell’s nut in the back of a van , for money from the twins. Hardly the kindest man on the planet.
@dogs aren't dangerous Lets see where your morals are. An innocent child abuse victim is locked in solitary confinement with a media ban being tortured by child rapist politicians who you vote for. Tereasa May had Melanie Shaw locked in solitary confinement with a media ban 4 years ago. Melanie has had 2 fingers cut off by slamming her hand in a cell door and was force fed psychotic drugs to make her unfit for trial. Treasa Mays dad was in charge of the diocese of the south coast of England. He was also in charge of the biggest child rapist ring in the history of the English church and his priests were charged with thousands of crimes against children. Hubert Brasier was May's dads name, he committed suicide by crossing a dual carriageway in his Marina and smashing head on into a range rover coming the other way. The politicians that English people are voting for have been raping and murdering children in government run care homes since the 1960's. Melanie Shaw is being tortured in prison right now and just because May put a media ban you cannot convince me that's why people are too scared to talk about this. This country and English people are the biggest disgrace ever right now and have no morals or empathy or compassion or courage. Even if you say this is the first time you have heard of these facts my bet is you won't even respond let alone speak up for Melanie Shaw and the children of England. Everyone was crying for Steve Bray when he had his megaphone taken off him and he had over 40k likes on twitter, i posted about Melanie Shaw being locked up in solitary confinement for taking to the streets with a megaphone exposing the child rapists and child murderers running England right now on the same post, you can guess not one single like for Melanie. That's the truth about England right now.

You can't dispose of a body in an aluminium smelter, unless you want an explosion. Water turns to steam almost instantaneously, and the resulting explosion throws molten aluminium everywhere. It should be easy to find videos of this happening - it's horrendous...and fast.

That's my point - it would have to be a rumour, because throwing a body (parts) into an aluminium smelter would have disastrous consequences.

Met him in fuengirola years ago with a friend of mine called Jonny stokes (rip) they taught me how to play kalooky never played it before but enjoyed learning
He sure is the Godfather of crime and the ppl he knew was unbelievable a to Z of names . He did things that noone else would do and more seen this 1 before still good look him up and other gangsters as they say
Funny how in the intro to this video/interview Bernard who has since said he wasn't part of the 'Essex Boys' and was a "once friend of the Krays"... Loved it when Fred said if they didnt get nicked, they were going to be ironed out because they were bringing too much heat to the others and causing problems 😂
As a northerner, I have to say that there is still a great distinction between the northern and southern English. That is despite huge amounts of immigration nationwide.
I remember all the coffee stalls Fred mentions especially DAannys a tthe elephant. Clapham Common ,Chelsea Bridge and the one under the railway bridge on Waterloo Road
You bet .They where lot better times I’ve noticed comments on here saying .I dnt understand why people look up to these people I’ll tell you .we knew where we stood with them ,The streets where safe if you wherent in the game .unlike today where it’s just pure rogue hooligans thinking they are gangsters .And then you have the biggest crims in the biggest position that these people vote for .Totally clueless to the way the world works or human behavour .
I was introduced to him once,he shook my hand, But he was very cautious so even though I know his mate Alphie Gerard, thought I didn't mention that,I thought it was irrelevant.
Charlie Kray had a serious male patterned Mr Whippy hairstyle when he got older, the worst part of his wrap around hairstyle was the mullet part that trailed off to the back down his neck. A syrup would of attracted less laughter behind his back.
Not forgetting in 2 separate tv interviews 1st one not long after the murders giving it all “my friends this and good bloke Tucker was” blah blah and then the 2nd I think was the Danny Dyer show where he’s like “they were nothing but bullies couldn’t stand them , got what they deserved”. More faces than Big Ben 🕰️

All that time in prison away from your children and wife just to get them a good education. A job making a living would have been more productive and he would have had the respect he craved . Instead spending about 14,15, in prison in total. That time he could have had with his family. Don't forget his conscience for his crime. He made life hard for himself.😎☘️
