Fred Dinenage's TV programme on the Krays was disturbing. As a followup to his book on the aforementioned gangsters, he interviewed a selection of other thugs who had been their henchmen back in the 60s. Fine, as far as it went BUT - he gave them a platform to demonstrate their wretched thoughts and opinions - and only one seemed to be showing anything resembling remorse. The programme should NOT have been shown in that form as it went some way towards glamourising social low lifes. I must also say that Mr Dinenage seemed to have enjoyed his meetings with Reggie and Ronnie a little too much for my liking.
