Isn't that the bunch-of-wankers sign he's making? Happy birthday, Ronnie. regards, Hein Either that or air guitar; rock on (into 2014 so I can nail you on every team) Ronnie. On another matter: Those new names in the frames, still too early for the likes of Wikipedia to tell us all we need to know, but there could be points in this lot. "Mr One" or "Mr Two" = Henry Smith (deceased 2008) but not named until this week because an underworld friend Micky Regan (died within the last fortnight) helped him to turn train robbery cash into a property empire. Another robber - either Mr One or Mr Two is still alive and still un-named in coverage of the case. "Mr Three" is probably one of: Billy Ambrose, Jack Cramer, Frederick Robinson, Kenneth Shakeshaft or Harry Pitts. If any of these are still alive they're more likely now than before to get press coverage on death. "The Ulsterman" was Thomas O' Reilly and his brother James Patrick was also involved. The Sun doesn't say if either is still alive. Two criminals turned grass helped with gaining convictions: Jimmy "The Dip" Kensit (Patsy's dad - died when she was 17) and Michael Keyhoe (again, nowt on his current state of survival). Doubtless a few press stories and the rest will confirm the life/death status of a few of the above before 1 Jan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted December 14, 2013 Also, I really doubt these productions will succeed in "glamourising" the robbery, all BBC dramas are good for these days is putting people to sleep. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted December 14, 2013 http://www.bbc.co.uk...t-arts-25111035 Glamourisation of crime here we go again... To be fair, they're showing the copper's side of events too. So it's the glamourisation of a collection of amoral, irresponsible and at times incompetent reprobates. Oh, and the train robbers as well... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted December 18, 2013 Couple of questions. This is got to be the best December DL has ever had, right? Also..... did he die because he was overexcited about his story being on the TV and his fucking worn out old body couldn't take it? Or did he see the trailer for it, and thought it looked like tosh so he decided not to bother sticking around....? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
