Infamous villains the likes of Machine gun Kelly , Pretty bow Floyd, and Baby face Nelson show how hard , mean and desperate you have to be to earn the title of Public enemy.

The Krays were the ultimate embodiment of how not to be in life. Every nightclub they owned failed.They were vain about their appearance and were enamoured about the image they portrayed. They loved the lime light which ultimately proved their downfall. The Krays spent most of their lives banged up. Its sad that a small minority of people want to hero worship them .
There is such a huge mythology that surrounds the krays in reality they were not that big of a gang and despite common belief they did not rule London
The were similar in this respect to John gotti in the US, you can’t be a gangster and be on the TV and in the public eye. Anyone that is or was was doomed to fail. They courted publicity then f***** it all up. The Richardsons were a lot more secretive and more successful , still committing crime and murder so not to be admired , but the best gangsters will be under the radar . If you have hardly heard of them they were more successful. It’s called the underworld for a reason
They'd have got on well with Sir Jimmy Saville.
I really enjoy the method used to tell these stories. The first person account and the small animated graphics really pull you in.
These are the best criminal series I've ever watched thank you for all the hard work youse have put into makeing these makes it a more better experience
WELL DONE NIPPER AND ALL THOSE WHO HELPED TO PUT THEM AWAY
Thanks for another great video.
Monty Python did a skit lampooning the Krays where the brothers were named Dimsdale. Was rather funny.
How about I lampoon u ya goon?
I noticed they only did it after the krays were put away . Smart move
They were called the perana brothers.
Ah yes, the Piranha brothers, Doug and Dinsdale (and Spiny Norman).
They were called the Piranha brothers duggie and disease they were gentlemen they once nailed my head to the coffee table but shook my hand afterwards
Brilliant! Love the editing and format.🙂♥️
The fella doing the Ronnie Kray voice over sounds more like Ronnie Corbett than Ronnie Kray.
They both had high pitched weird voices in real life.
Great video! Thanks for uploading 😀
These series of videos I've been watching are pretty awesome. I haven't been disappointed yet, and the accuracy historically is impressive. There are quite a few gangsters from the old day that I'd love to see a video like this done on.
The voice of Nipper really was so very distracting to me. Other than that? This was right on point and well done!!
So was the krays actor's the sounded Australian trying to sound like Londoners
This video was very good. Very interesting and keeps your attention. I highly recommend it 😊
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for add this for me and everyone else
They loved young boys too 🤣🤣🤣
Yes but that never seems to get mentioned
That's the way it was back then EN VOGUE SO TO SPEAK.
@@honorladone8682 but its well known and the franchise that is they krays seems too let it be overlooked.... Like take the film legend surely the researchers for that film had of know this about ronnie.... Former associates of the krays have openly stated this and their involvement with bothby is a great example
@John Boy . Would you have said that to Ronnie's face if he was still alive today and still in his prime? I seriously doubt it. I bet if he told you, you would definitely be one of his little boys..
@@jimmyavpi why would I want to be anywhere near him ? And if I was my back would be towards the wall with a knife 🔪 in hand , that turd burglar ain't tapping my back door , God bless you Jimmy boy and your LGBTQI COMMUNITY respect
I seriously doubt that Nipper Reid had a voice like a 13 year old boy.
I beg to differ…5 foot 7 boxer, reminds me of Tyson Mike who has a 6 yr olds voice 😂
Do you though?
🤣🤣🤣
@@josephfast5887 you brave enough to say that to Tysons Chevy chase? 🤣
45 minutes of the Krays and that's what you got out of it Nancy? 😂🤣
One of the best parts of this video is the australian accent of the guy playing ronnie. Think that's what he was doing because it defnitely wasn't cockney
Alright Guvnor!!
That catford incident wasnt about the krays it was one associate of theirs that got hurt. It was the Richardson's and another violent south London firm
Ty for your content very entertaining.
Every crew in London referred to themselves as "the firm"
Leaving your doors open was a myth. The Krays would send someone round to rob your gas meter
The Kray's were scared of their mother.She did not approve of boxing.
Very well done video. Kudos!
that you dad?
@@CARLIN4737 No, only your wife calls me daddy.
I don't think the real "Nipper" reade sounds this guy, this actor sounds like he's been hitting a helium balloon lol.
😂😂😂
Jesus, the attempt at the accent of the actor doing the Kray twins is absolutely horrendous
You could leave your doors and windows open, because nobody had anything to nick.
Looking for this comment.
Small electrical goods didnt exist.
Nobody had anything worth stealing ffs!! 😂🤣
Awesome like and shared out. 👏
Cornell beat the shit out of Ronny Kray in a nightclub, that was the biggest reason Ronny had a problem with him, Ronny couldn't fight him so chose the cowards way and shot him.
It was in a pub called the widows son.
That’s the biggest red herring going,you show me stonewall proof.not just he said she said,facts
@@rambo235 Like The Krays are anything but a list of stories. "Apparently" Cornell hit Ronny over the head with Reggie... No, but he did kick the shit out of him as he was bigger and harder. Contrary to popular myth, the Krays never did a Kardashian type fly on the wall show.
@@stephenmcdonagh2795 I like the way you put apparently show me the proof,the krays were untouchable everyone were frightened of them,they ruled the east end fact
@@rambo235 Cornell wasn't from the Kray's "Manor"- hence being shot for being in a pub that wasn't in his turf. Ronny, so hard that rather than just beat this imposter up, shoots him, and so the "One Shot one and one screwed up knifing" legend began... and ended.
Hardly The St. Valentine's Day Massacre.
It’s a stepping stone for the real events, but not exactly the most accurate, it seemed to me that Ron shot Cornell twice, which he didn’t, and some small inaccuracies, I personally haven’t heard the story of them flushing jack’s liver down the toilet, it’s just the little details being inaccurate that bug me
Brilliant.❤️🇺🇸🙏
Say thank you!
They got quite a few things wrong like they never served prison at the same time until they got arrested in 68
When you're feared cuz everybody knows you're...Kray~Kray...
😂😂😂. I didn’t wanna laugh, but I did.
Please consider doing a Lucky Luciano, He survived a almost fatal hit attempt and rised to rule them all.
I can smell a Whitey Bulger episode coming a mile away. I can see Lucy being on this, as well as John Gotti. Gotti is a given. He will have his episode, bet on it.
be a good role for some actor. To carry Lucky, thats a lot.
@@JayCity10 ¹¹i1¹¹¹q
Loopy Luciano was as other gangsters of the underworld. So any rise could only be with in the underworld. Therefore if the rise was compared to a pancake it rose to no higher than sub normal. So not even as high as the surface of a flat pancake of the above world. It is important for some to know or remameber than any supposed criminal rise is in fact desent. So the higher a supposed criminal climbs with in the Organised Crime Syndicates is in fact a lower position. You could say one step up for them is equivilent to one step down in the real world.
Absolutely shocking acting by those guys playing R & R. Were those London accents they were attempting ? 😂😂😮
Dirk & Doug Dinsdale... sought by Harry "Snapper" Organs 😁
He nailed a' endtable to me 'ead...but I 'ad it comin I did...🤣
Love the Python reference you did sir, well played!
LOVE THE KRAYS.
THE RICHARDSON BROTHERS. WAS THE TOP DOGS IN LONDON AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE
This is a comic book documentary. A much better insight into the Krays is the Freddie Foreman documentary on "Real Stories".
But isn't Freddy Foreman sweet on them whilst himself a serious criminal. Another of the 'Very Nice men type. But would tell you straight, he'd have had them murdered. To get rid of the twin pests who ruin every thing they touch for the other criminal gangsters.
lol cool intro 😎
This is where the term “cray-cray” originated
No it wasn’t 😂😂😂😂
@@damienpattel3081 Yes it was you piece of shit
@@phoenixmodellingphotography google it you shit stain, there’s many origins of the slang term. 😂😂 dip shit
...giggle
😀😀...giggle
Saw the Netflix flop, the 60s dialect, vocab and lingo was not used in the movie. I lived in South East London between 2007 - 2017 and the current gangster lingo is the same as the movie which was supposed to depict the 60s
Those actors accents are ridiculous. Sometimes Aussie, sometimes South African, sometimes American. Never Cockney though.
My least favorite "gangsters" They were poofs and ch@ld pr@dators . They would not have lasted out a week in America during that era. I like this Natural Born Outlaws series though. Keep them coming please
These documentaries are great, particularly the comic strip style reconstructions. But I’ve got to say, the actors accents are horrific. Is this a US or Australian company? Because it surely can’t have been hard to find someone who can do a cockney accent.
It's not the brightest thing to do, kill people in front of witnesses 🤦♂️
it's ironic how that guy doesn't understand that both the krays and saddam hussein were peacekeepers.
They were lunatics
Peace Keepers? Lol. That's new. When Satan Insane started his time as President he summoned all the BAATH Party senior executive at a boardroom meeting and one by one asked some to stand up and go out side where he had assassins waiting who murdered them. A wife of one asked him to spare her husband. So Sadam sent him home to her chopped- up in a gift box. Yes a very peaceful man or monster.
@@MikeGreenwood51 howd that work out?
I admit: I would love to have attended a Kray nightclub, circa 1963 or '64.
Ronnie would have bummed yo to death
@@michaelharrison3602 Is he the one that liked boys?
@@davidlincolnbrooks yep
Pair of sugar puffs
I love these documentaries. But I can't stand the cringy b-Grade acting!
George beat up Ronnie in a one to one.
The all sounds like squirrels on helium
SORT OUT THOSE ACCENTS!.....
Do we have to?
@@katalac seriously YES!!
Lol the actors sounded more Australian than Londoners
I thought it was wee Jimmy Cranky
The fight in Smith's wasn't between the Krays and the Richardsons
We no they did bad things however they were right about Jim fix it back in the late 70ss and 80s they said that it was not right how he had the keys to homes on hospital grounds and wailk around the hospital s like a doctor or a nurse how he got away with it for so long however friends and money in high places tailk in iaw and sad to say that still is going on
He did sound like that pretty much
Why are the guys acting as the krays doing half Australian accents there is nothing cockney about them 😂😂..... Also the myth that is the krays is proof how well commercially branded they are ... The krays were not even the biggest gang in east london let alone the UK and ronnie was a well known abuser of young men but for some reason that never seems to get talked about
One guy who mentioned something about it got a bullet to his head in the Blind Beggar Public House. The hush about what they did is really all part of the Kray story. IE a regiem of fear based on a slash across the cheek with a razor.
Those accents are hilarious.
Nipper came from his boxing skills, lol sorry lady but nipper was called nipper simply because he was a short ass nothing to do with boxing plus what you said don't even make sense
Boop- boop-di-dup!💞
Benders ……
They tried to come to Liverpool to take over but there was a nice crew of lads waiting for them they didn’t step off the train shit themselves and crawled back to London
Didn't know the krays were Australian or whatever those accents are lol
wonderful format and casting...
But WHERE are the credits???
Who played who?
This is preposterous.....
To James bowring. Yo James. It’s the same actor playing R&R. It’s the feminine side of Ronnie that makes his voice sound a bit Aussie :) cheers. Dave
This is a CARTOON!? Lmbo
God I hope 🙏 I'm not a distant relative to these thugs, although there's German blood on both sides of my family, but my mother's maiden name is kray. None of the krays here in Australia were criminals to my knowledge
Isn’t everyone who isn’t indigenous to Australia descended from convicts? 😂😂😂
@@holydiver73 Essentially yes, unless they were some of the crew members and law enforcers who came over. But, some of the crimes were beyond ridiculous, like my family was starving and needed food so I stole some stuff to keep them eating. And hey after WW2 a lot of people weren’t exactly doing honest work. So fair credit to the Kray’s for making the most of it.
With a recession on the cards, it makes you wonder if some of us would go the same, because the world has been so difficult. Crime pays, don’t matter for how long, you can make some serious cash, it is just the law will catch up to ya. So run rabbit, run rabbit, run, run, run.
Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate meet the criminal underworld
Lol they came to newcastle and get ran out of town not hard men just bullys
Old Bollocks
The Krays were interesting and I loved the Tom Hardy portrayal of them. But looking at their operation one must conclude that they were most decidedly small time, petty hoods involved in low dollar penny ante activities. Was London really that poor where they would extort club owners for 15 to 20 pounds a week as stated in this documentary? The nightclub business is small potatoes. Nightclubs, for hoods, are to have a place to hangout and not much more than that. The Kray's wouldn't even get noticed if they were operating in the states. I can think of hundreds of hoods that personally whacked more rivals in any given year than the Krays killed in their entire history. No racketeering or union activities, no cartage theft, no hijacking, no murder for hire, no gambling and loan sharking, no wonder they never made any real money. They , by USA standards, wouldn't merit a paragraph on page 17. No longevity or organization acumen. No investing in legitimate business, no money laundering operations, no drug importing and distribution networks. Had they followed and applied time tested methods they might have been able to continue in business to a ripe old age. Still, the fact that were were twins and publicity loving psychotics made them noteworthy and a icon of the times as it was in London during the late fifties and early to mid 60's.
20£ back then is roughly equivalent to 200 dollars now, that multiplied by however many businesses were paying protection money every week to them isn't peanuts.
Right they were getting eight hundred pounds a month out of Esmeralda's (according to this)that's a hundred quid a week each. Not a fortune even back then the Richardsons were getting more than that every day
Brilliant series, except for the Australians trying to master the British accent!
Mitchell should have stayed on the moor, it's clear to me that the krays were always gonna deliver this fella to Freddie forman, this was a revenge killing.
Clear with what evidence?
@@MikeGreenwood51 The double jeopardy law stopped forman from being convicted of Michelle's murder. But I believe Mitchell was taken out as a favour to Bruce Reynold's..
The comic drawings are great, I don’t know why you guys ruin these docs with the awful cringy acting bits
Sound like Australian to me not a EastEnder
Clowns
Blimey some bad actors in this OTT rubbish .!!!!!!!!!
Some of these actors lol are embarrassing
Lol two poofs with a bigger legend than deserved
Spot on mate , local bullies was all they were , big fish in a small pond , Richardsons South , Nash's North , and everybody in Bermondsey just laughed at the 2 old poofs
Still more of a legend then you’ll ever leave behind
They left quite a few sore arses behind as well.
@@nopenope990 I’m happy with that
@@nopenope990 yea some reputation ronnie left behind no better than jimmy saville the wrong un
Hate the cartoons. Use real pictures.
Seemingly there own people hated the krays and so did most of there gang members. They said they were just ponces, leeches, bullys! If they slashed pub owners and other men who worked dam hard to buy a pub or night club then to get that done to them is really low stuff, stabbing and tormenting good men till they signend there pub over to them. Becouse the twins seemingly didnt have the guts and brains to do bank jobs with shooters and that sort of stuff that was serously risky and if cought your looking at least 5 to 10 years in jail. So the twins didnt have it in them to do the real heavy duty stuff, eh? Like bruce reynolds and others who are idolised. A mean really hero worshipped even by kids as young as 12. Becouse the kids and other big time gangsters know it wasnt just the crime of the century, it was the way they did it. That even police secretly admire it and no wonder. Who would be able to think of even stopping a mail train at 70mph at 3am never mind doing it. Yes at least 7 men were falsly fitted up. By placing prints at the farm house hide out but not one bit of evidence was found at the train. Today that wouldnt be enough to convict them, becouse being at a farm house doesnt mean that they were any were near a train 30 miles away? But the goverment were demanding the police and prosecution that they GET THEM jailed no matter what it takes. The british system is one of the worse for sending the wrong man or men to jail for life on false evidence. The jails are full of men innocent of the crime but its all about making the system look great as in there good at there job, when most of the public know what they are and do, and hate these mps that are the biggest criminals that keep stealing YOUR money? The tory peer peado that ron kray set up was cleverly done and its shown here on this film.
So-are you saying the convicted Glasgo to London Train robbers who were sent to prison were actually inocent? Is that the gist of what you wrote? All fitted up. They just happened by complete accident to find a very large amount of stolen money.
These aussies really cant do english accents can they
What a truly hideously acted and irritating documentary 😂
what terrible acting!!
