He’s not married he owns a dog he’s a keen mountaineer.. bloody hell what else did he tell them about himself 😂 he enjoys a cupasoup and watching blockbusters
I went to school with these lads. I remember the German turning up on our manor.. called himself “Hans” the lads got themselves involved in organised crime.. they weren’t bad per se but very misguided. Since they got out at least one of them came back local and stayed out of trouble..
It was very unprofessional of them to give so many clues of their personal life, even many low level criminals wouldn't have discussed half the things they did in front of hostages.
he learned his very own "fluent German??", called "Germlish????" by binge watching box sets of Allo Allo, and to practice that, he used to drive on the wrong side of the road, getting pulled over by the UK Police, saying to them, "Vy have you pulled me over, as mine vindscreen vipers, vashers, unte vinkers are verking" thats about as fluent as his German got.
Considering how long ago this was and the fact that there was no Internet, social media or anything it seems these robbers were efficient at obtaining info/Intel on people. Also that bank manager "so is this your first robbery?" That was gold, the chill on that man 😂
@@jblack5323 funny you should say that you could get one for £500 as I owed my dad some money and I gave him my 205 to repay the debt and he kept the car for a year and sold it for £500 which pissed me off immensely as it was in excellent condition and worth alot more than £500.
Think this is the last one in your catalogue, been binge watching since Saturday cause am am stuck in hospital, your research is second to none, I now know why your uploads take a few weeks, easily the best on RUclips, I can’t understand why you’ve not blown up but in saying that it’s only a matter of time, good luck mate
Most of my time as you said goes into research and you are 100% right, but some people don't care about that they want glossy visuals and smooth cuts, like someone said once your channels nothing like ****** "its like I am looking at bunch of photos wheres the video?" Sadly you try to explain that the video they just hit me with is in fact stock footage sometimes not even about events or even showing anything from same country. Yes my channels not slick in visuals but I am not trying to be like those other channels, I have noticed though more of my scripts being stolen word for word and one of the channels I used to get slapped with I have just overtaken them.
I don't care how desperate anyone is for money, kidnapping whole families for a robbery is just wrong on so many levels, not to mention how easy it is for things to go wrong or escalate in ways that can end up with innocent people killed.
I suppose CW was never going to be the same again after the murder of Jill Dando, especially considering the stitch-up of an innocent, vulnerable man, Barry George.
Id be happy just watching crimewatch re runs but you've got a great theme tune and your voice overs all add to the entertainment, those subs are building, keep em coming.
This intrigued me while watching old re runs of crimewatch episodes… I like that you do the follow ups of these crimes because I googled some of the crimes… Such as the lost boys etc… which took me down a dark rabbit hole!
Yep I agree nick, although I can say I had some involvement in the Sidney Cooke saga, I was a young man in the 90s when he was holed up in a Somerset police station,my first proper work was an apprentice landscape gardener and me and the boss was caught up in the protest outside the police station, my boss was cursing as we had many new builds to turf and we were just sat there we drove up that morning from torbay in Devon
@@chucky2316 I just found it so weird that a few young boys had gone missing and lo and behold they were related… I went on some kind of weird pedo documentary spree after that as I was also intrigued how these people find each other… I mean, I’ve been around some sketchy people but nobody has ever approached me and asked if I fancy abusing kids… it just super intrigued me how these rings and people find each other… and how do they bring that convo up to another person 🤷♂️ especially in the days before internet… I did finally get an answer… each perp is arrested singularly at some point for noncing, and as we all know they end up on the nonce wing with other nonces… where then they were free to start networking and meeting other nonces, and nonces that those nonces had done time with etc etc and then they were meeting up on the outside to swap images etc, etc… it is then a ring by the very nature that it’s a group of them using each other as a source for new material or in the Cooke case actual young boys 😢 some of the injuries to those boys were devastating. it just interested me as it’s so far out of my realm.
Tiger kidnappings started in Ireland in the early 70's, as a para he likely served there or was told the stories from colleagues who did and that was his inspiration. Even back then before cctv etc, you had to disguise yourself if you wanted to get away with it. Bizarre none of them even attempted to, even his German alter ego was well known by many people.
Nice one! Not even watched it yet but I have no doubt it will be another interesting, well made video. Also, I'm looking forward to a longer than usual episode. You've made an excellent bro & hope You keep growing. 💪👍🏴🏴
Brilliant channel You! Love the compact, no non-sense style. Just came from your latest episode about the demon hairdresser. Great but grim. Watched other's before and there's more gems to watch. Keep up the great work please and takecare. Bless!
The replacement bank manager was brilliant. Makes me wonder if these had any connections to the cash depository robberies. Where they were strapping make believe bomb to the securicor van driver's. In the early eighties involving David Croke? There was a crimewatch file called 'double supergrass' about them. Bless if you could educate me if there was any connection to this case. Cheers!
Hi I know exactly the crimewatch file you are talking about when kids find parts and mask from robbery, from what I know they are separate incidents and have no connection but that’s just my opinion.
You know most of us Watching this are jealous of the Era and how easy it was to get money back then if all else failed. Now you have to evade all sorts of High tec etc it's almost inposible but not fool proof.
17:07 - I'm guessing this was before 2.4 Children? - Side note: How did I immediately recognise him here, but can't remember what I had for breakfast?! The mind is a funny thing...
It's all copied from the Irish, it's called Tiger Kidnapping and has been happening since early 70's. He was a para, likely served in Ireland or heard stories from those that did and knew how effective they were and tried it. He did absolutely nothing to disguise himself and it was pretty poor compared to the jobs in Ireland where millions are taken.

Makes a change from Tesco's robbing us.

They would have picked that up through conversations they (the robbers) were having with each other.
Cream of mushroom with cruton

I love these Crimewatch videos. I hope you have many more old episodes in the works. Thanks for putting in the effort.
Thanks for your support, they seem to be very popular,the robbery ones are the hardest to find results on, Deffo more on the way 👍
Sad of the crime being committed here but watching this takes me back to when Britain was Great Britain and not the shit hole it’s become today
The Tesco kidnapping was an odd one - a huge level of effort and risk for a relatively small reward. Not exactly master criminals...
Genuinely some of the best criminal content being put on RUclips. Thank you for your time & effort.
4.48. 1991. On news. Israel palistine. Things never change
These videos are great mate. Very enjoyable. It's great to see the reconstructions and then the updates as to what happened afterwards.
wonderful thanks
Absolutely love this channel. Easily a binge watch. Thank you for the effort you put in. 💯
thank you
Tiger kidnapping is what the Irish authorities call this crime..

Legend has it that he’s still speaking in a fake German accent to this day.
Vell aren't vee funny, jarr? Mister funny man.
he learned his very own "fluent German??", called "Germlish????"
by binge watching box sets of Allo Allo,
and to practice that,
he used to drive on the wrong side of the road,
getting pulled over by the UK Police,
saying to them, "Vy have you pulled me over,
as mine vindscreen vipers, vashers, unte vinkers are verking"
thats about as fluent as his German got.
That's What Del Boy Does

Had a 205gti myself and what a brilliant car they were, still regret selling it.
Great cars. 20 years ago you could pick them up for £500. Not the case now lol

Does anyone miss the days when you didn't have to brake in a house and get the car keys to get the car, just a screwdriver back then
People used start cars with a tea spoon handle's
In them days

Yeahh i agree i like his chanel it somehow adds a level of spookiness to some british crime videos somehow
The fella playing the German guy was well into it haha
"No regard for human life". The quintessential Paratrooper.
The worst crime is being called Andy Andrew's 😮 wtf....
Only Andy Pandy would be worse
I noticed the gruber similarities at the start of the video. Crazy thar he turned out to be from yorkshire

Love this channel great work 👍👏👍 always a fan of Crimewatch and remember alot of these ones 😂 respect from Ireland 💕
So is this your first robbery. What about you 😂😂
A young Nick Pickard, before he was in Hollyoaks.
Now they just say a guy threw himself off a Bridge and just forget about him
27:03 got any gangster movies 😭😭🤣🤣
Just binge watching these while crochet
Peugeot 205s and shotguns. Its a good video
Got to love both😂

Wow i vaguely remember this on crime watch, actress who plays mum was Ronnie Birtles mum in Grange Hill!
Does that make you feel old.

Cool, thank you
Great Channel Great content thanks for the effort you put into these videos!!!!!
I appreciate that thank you
@@CuriosSpiritual you deserve the praise sir!!!
who would trust the police to do any ting right these days ?
That's exactly what I was thinking,
Your voice is mental 😂🙌
🤣 Thank you
excellent just what i needed thank you
John Calton was no Valerio Viccei!
The policeman on crimewatch is very familiar. I think I've seen him interviewed about another case, maybe John Cannan.
No, anyone in this situation should just give up the money...never rely on the police to help you.
Some crimes are not "approved of " by other inmates . Watch your back !
Great 👍 video mate keep up the great 👍 work
Thanks 👍

Can't belive the atitude on that snooty women . When the family came in and told her they had been kidnapped.

I have a question for the channel has any unsolved crimes been solved after these videos. If so do a video 📹 super channel
No everything is up to date, no new updates for older videos, thanks for your great comment👍

Remaining silent in German, inscrutable Krauts.
The acting was very posh
Back in the day when police were police, not a complete woke waste of time.
Then: Police Force
Now: Police Service
an important distinction
Wow before 01 numbers 😂
baylham is a nice little place
Amongst them all. Don't know why, but your comment made me chuckle. And yes I agree. Blessings from Narch!)
Did Crimewatch go out on the last Thursday of the month? I was only a kid but I remember my Nana used to let me stay up to watch it. 😂
Not sure Deffo know it was a Thursday though
Don't have nightmares.
Was on at 9pm then there was a bulletin/update about 11.15pm with names and leads off people phoning in
I wonder if the police tortured him for a confession? Ve haf ways of making you talk.
Mainly bluff !?
Whetes that accent from
Instantly recognisable VERY poor acting by UK actors school (if that exists ?).

1991 but they had been doing similar crimes on bank managers since 89
