a documentary about "The Essex Boys", a notorious gangster organisation in the UK that evolved from the downfall of Ronnie & Reggie Kray's crime organisation in London in the 1960s...
(i have an interest in anything Kray related due to the fact that a Great Uncle of mine was a 'debt collector'/'enforcer'/'hard-man' for the organisation back in the day.i never met him but i have stories from my Dad)
