Great interview. James is a top interviewer, allows people to talk, sets great paths of conversations and it always ends up a worthwhile programme. People like Vic have so much good to pass on.
Bloody ell @James English Ive watched loads of your content , and for me this guy Vic Dark is the realest guest you have had on. Excellent work brother
Very honest and straightforward talking from a guy that’s clearly been there done it! He will get far more kids to drop the knife than any MP or police officer! Well done to him for changing his mind set and life. Great interview thanks
Mate what a banging podcast , this is well and truly up there in my top 5 all time best. This bloke can tell a story and had me buzzing like I was there at the time lol . I'm not sure if there is one , and if not , we need a part 2 of this dudes life mate please . Big thanks to you both for this podcast.
Thought provoking and interesting, I think they should show James podcast in schools and prisons it might change people's mind before they grow old and decide it's time to change
" give each other a way out " is a lovely way of putting it for turning away from confrontation. I obviously remember Vic from Danny dyer he is also on a documentary called "the end"About EastEnder villains.. Another great Podcast James Spot on 👌👍
Brilliant interview. Vic never met you but been in company of all your London lads always hear them speak highly of you. A great story you have and bloody he'll you looking great for 63. Jail does one good thing hey. So proud of you as a man , proud of what you said and on knives etc. I was a teen thrown in dispearsel and all ya lads looked out for me , just a tiny kid of a council estate going a big sentence. Cockneys made me a man . Top set of men ,
A brilliant interview James,real top notch stuff from Vic a true pro at what he did and now helping others not make the same mistakes as he made is a measure of the man
A proper OG, he's done everything he talks about, make a refreshing change from listening to the Wankstas, by the way Vic is 66 and is still in good order, top man 👍
Great interview James your interview skills are spot on, Good questions and giving him time to reply, some hosts sometimes speak over etc. As for Vic what a proper old school fella.
I GREW UP ROUND THE CORNER TO VIC DARK , HIS MUM AND DAD WAS GREAT PEOPLE ,WENT TO WORK WITH HIS DAD AND WORKED WITH HIM FOR TEN YEARS . REST HIS SOUL !
Stellar interview and conversation I’ve Seen Vick tell his story few times over the years this was the best . His insight to prison is great certain criminals treated inappropriately and pedos get protection . I hope he’s doing well now Z Great stuff James
Brilliant James..you invited a another good guy with an interesting story. Didnt show off didnt big himself up.. just a typical nice guy. You Enlighten all your pod casts with that infectious signature dynamite laugh of yours James. Top man! We all love your interviews As always another boss (Anything Goes) ❤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤👊
I agree you have to let someone leave with their pride if you don't want repercussions. I've done it even after knocking someone out by saying I was lucky and shit like that a buying them a pint. They know it's bullshit, you know it's bullshit but if it saves agro it's worth it.
Aww James I have nearly watched all of your interviews.. Even the ones I think na I won't watch this for long.. I end up glued.. Somevi have watched 2-3 times.. But I'm guna run out soon.. I just want to say I thank you have a excellent talent for this.. You must go away and have your own opinion on people but you seem to give everyone the same chance to tell there stories. Thank really really thankyou 💙
Few years ago, one of my manager, told me that he had spent 6 months in a Miami jail for a drug related offence. He also told me that many of the "Gangsters" in jail with him were the nicest people you can possible meet. Watching this video, has made me realised that he was absolutely right.
Yes VIC you a legend and a hero...in my youth I went to woodhill hmp on firearms charges and I done a short bird in hmp brixton ....I got two sons n four grankids I changed in my life I did my first fitness job I was gym orderly in Woodhilll I'm the 90s I got my bawla fitness award certificate what gave me my foot into the outside fitness world I became a personal trainer n a for fitness manager guns were a passion but also fitness and martial Arts ie mixed martial arts I've done seminars and I use my passion of mma boxing kickboxing as my niche in personal training I was going down wrong path I can't incriminate my self but I was getting a bit deep when I was young but I decided I didn't want a life sentence etc so I agree with wat you said the advice to younguns bout knifes and I'd say to youngster's stay away from guns as the new laws are designed to f up a young persons life even guns not real if the feds get a whiff they try n shoot u n say ohhh he was reaching for something n u loose ur life ova bolllocks n them cs will lie jjs like the kiddy from Tottenham rip and prayers to the family....stay blessed VIC you may not think of yourself as role model but to me ur a role model stay blessed bruva PEACE
Vic is a proper old school head.gotta give him respect.and the message is clear kids today carry knives out of fear.kids need to fight with your hands,boxing,some sort of mma ect.NEVER CARRY A BLADE.i think kids today just lack confidence and don't know how to fight.and parents need to pull there fingers out and put some time in for there sons and learn them to fight and defend there selves without the need to carry
3.07 in and im feeling this is a genuinely good character and James is on it straight away with the right questions and convo to get the interview going on a happy note.. isnt James just 🎶simply the best🎶 I'm liking Shaun's pod casts but i gotta be honest i rate J number 1..anyway gonna go chill and enjoy this then I'm sure i will leave another comment again later...😎
Really interesting interview and an excellent interviewer. Vic is obviously a colorful bloke, but I did have a chuckle at his comment, words of the effect, 'Nowadays the system is completely against ya... the prisons, the police, the courts' .... that is the general idea when you commit crime. Its like implying in the good ol' days they went a bit more lenient or softer because 'he's a decent sort of villain who helps old ladies cross the road'!! Its kinda where you chose to pitch your standards and ethic's I suppose. Good content James.

Another amazing interview by yourself James. Vic's story about the robbery that went wrong and ended up with him burying himself in a potato field is one of the best capers I've ever heard, completely enthralling and it happened in real life. You could totally see a movie being made wbout his life of crime. It would as he himself said be the British equivalent of The Town.
@@JamesEnglish You're a top bloke James, keep up the great work and never get distracted by negativity from your own personal mission. You've always been the consummate professional and as inspirational as any guest on your shows.
"We dont need the police, we're working class.." The working class have had their streets taken off them by the atomisation of society, all these areas have been flooded by massive numbers of migrants who have taken over the areas that he grew up in. How can the white working class tell anyone what to do, how can they police their own neighbourhoods anymore..? in the way they used to do? They've been marginalised. "Until we get back control" Whens that gonna happen? The globalists have won.
Alright James as I said to you last night on Twitter I was really looking forward to this..one of the best podcasts you've done imo mate...cheers bro Fuck me vic ain't half got covered in tattoos now,,the last doc I seen with him he had nowhere near that amount...lol
James's English podcast is turning to be one of the best on RUclips.
Full of people you don’t want to be like. Worlds dumbest criminals and then some
Nah
Better than Attwood! He’s definitely suspect
jason antigua 😂😂😂ah mate.. give Atwood a pass pal.. I think the narcs just left its mark that’s all..
One of the most old school polite guests you've had on here I'd say, would never have thought it till u hear him speak
Great interview. James is a top interviewer, allows people to talk, sets great paths of conversations and it always ends up a worthwhile programme. People like Vic have so much good to pass on.

Been looking forward to this James this man Vic Dark is a underworld legend with tons of stories...
Happy Christmas buddy
Proper east London legend and one tough man.
1:10:53 "Always give someone a way out"
Bit of Sun Tzu, The Art of War, in there.
Push an enemy to hard and they will act in desperation, reacting in ways you cannot predict
Another great interview. Well done James and great to see Vic saying it like it is. Great advice. Keep it up.
Pete Earles thanks pete

Quote:
My dad was a Maltese immigrant & my mum was ginger, basically i didn't stand off on a good foot really!
Made me laugh!
Richard Gorman - yep... hardships hey!

As always another boss (Anything Goes)
❤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤👊
I love when he says give someone a way out. That's true, corner a person and it's on
I agree you have to let someone leave with their pride if you don't want repercussions. I've done it even after knocking someone out by saying I was lucky and shit like that a buying them a pint. They know it's bullshit, you know it's bullshit but if it saves agro it's worth it.
@@andrewparry8439 well said. Exactly the right thing to do. 👍👍
Some TRUTH from Vic, the interesting stories he tells have came at a serious cost to him, family and friends
A legend, is a guy who gets up in shitty weather goes working a 9 to 5 job to put food on the table, without hurting anyone.
Very true. Criminals like this guy- London ones in particular- seem to be glamourised these days.
To fucking true mate hats of to you
so a legend is a guy who works in Britain
@@maxhyett7317 yep.
