    Cheers for uploading... I thought I'd seen everything on all this. Much appreciated. Also if anyone can find a copy of Chris Lambrianou's ' The day that changed my life' (which was filmed around 1995 I believe) it is well worth a watch. It was on RUclips a couple years ago but disappeared now.

    He was a hanger on in the last days of the 'Firm' as it was crumbling. He comes off as staunch but never mentioned he made a statement against the twins after being sent down for a reduced sentence. He didn't have the best reputation in prison amongst his peers. His book is very interesting on adapting to life after prison. But before that it's more of a kissing up to the Krays knowing how much they despised him. He'd turn up to all the cheesy Reg Kray 80's/90's 'charity' dos as a sort of 'Kray Firm personality' but once they'd both died he soon changed his tune to blaming them for getting 15 years. Christopher Lambrianou on the other hand is a total opposite. Strong character, intelligent. He was the one the police really wanted off the streets. Washed his hands of that life and turned his life and countless others around. A true inspiration to what anyone can accomplish if they want to turn their life around. However hard it can be.

    When I was put in solitary on the hospital wing of Parkhurst in 1977 under Dr Cooper (Coopers Troopers) I saw & talked to Ronnie Kray on the small hospital exercise yard. Before he was transferred to Broadmoor. He was immaculately dressed in a kind of dark blue tailored suit. (you could wear virtually anything in Parkhurst if you were a Lifer). He still exuded 'gangster' and talked quite softly & fluently. Believe me, in his day he must have been well respected (in his presence or to his face). When the medication trolley came around. Ronnie would step out a shoot down at least 5/6 medication shots.

As for Tony, he always was Loyal to Ron and he seemed a very nice and likeable man . Sad he spent the best years of his life inside various prisons for essentially being in the wrong place at the wrong time . All the sentences were very Harsh !!

Those types of crimes were really what the subsequent "whole life tariff" was for. Trouble is, short of solitary confinement/no phone access etc the Krays had the ability to order or persuade their "soldiers" outside to carry on with the bad stuff

    From what many have said including Eric Mason and Joey Pyle was that Tony Lambrianou was the one who planned Jack The Hats murder and wound Reggie up to do it and then Tony and others pulled tools out and jumped all over him.. It was well out of order.

    • @ponyboycurtis3795
      @ponyboycurtis3795 Год назад +2

      @Stanly Stud yes many have said he was just a flashy, big mouthed trouble causer.. Years ago my oldest brother had some friends and two of them were a pair of Irish brothers who were serious men, bare knuckle fighters, on the roids, working on the doors, fighting day in and day out and were real hard men.. But one of the brothers.. the younger one was quite a bit less capable than the other older brother and he knew it and was quite a bit jealous I think and would constantly wind the older one up and be in his ear until he snapped and would smash the intended targets face off.. As can imagine both brothers ended up doing plenty of bird for kidnappings, serious assaults, wounding etc etc and last I knew they don't speak and the younger one was in jail whilst the older has calmed down and moved back to Ireland.. But my point is that the younger brother in my story reminds me of Tony Lambrianou and how he wound Reggie up.
