    My god..
    I don't usually like films like this but was gripped to the very end.
    If you enjoy gory London Essex gangland violence then it's for you !
    Problem for me is I didn't understand most of It, Essex dialect etc.

    I was fascinated with the Rettendon murders after it, there's a few films about it out there. Then there's Bernard o'Mahoney's website :eek: and youtube interviews with the guy on the run in Spain, who's name escapes me. I don't want to get back into it l lost hours of my life :D

    Let’s not forget these were vicious violent criminals. Pat Tate in particular, was a psycopathic coke fuelled bully. Horrible people.

    I worked with a guy a few years ago who knew them, he said they were bullying scum who deserved everything they got.
