Fred

Stark insight into one of the most notorious old school London gangsters.

But respect for someone who only hurt the bad guys ! Nothing wrong with revenge when you have no respect for the law dealing with killers and thugs

It is interesting insight into his life. He is holding back on a lot of information and it gives the impression that he is only doing the documentary for the money, as he mentions and one point that he is uncomfortable with some of the questions. People who know a lot about him, I imagine won't learn much more besides his present circumstances. It is a great example that shows that nothing stays the same and change is inevitable. It also makes you really think though. Is he a good man? Is he a bad man? Is he a good man who made bad decisions? Either way I enjoyed it and I hope you will too.

Interesting if rather sparse look at one of British gangland's celebrated geezers.

It's not the best made documentary ever made but the subject matter propels it along at a fair pace.

Whilst entertaining to a point it becomes rather sad when we learn about how far down the system this once 'crime king' has fallen. No more do casinos or gyms bring in the dough for this elderly ex-gangster who incidentally was one of the first people to import a Pac-Man video game into the UK. The fact that most of his family want nothing to do with him prompts the saying that crime does not pay, especially in respect from your loved ones.

Just watched on Netflix. A good insight in to the life of a famous and notorious gangster. Keeps you engaged all the way through but you get the distinct feeling Freddie is holding back, which makes it a little more interesting in a lot of ways. Recommended.
