London’s Old Bailey becomes the scene of the criminal celebrity trial of the century. Flash bulbs pop and crowds gasp as the gory details of the Krays’ murderous empire are revealed to an enthralled public.
Loyalties are tested to the limit and old oaths are broken. Detective Nipper Reads' career is on the line; but for those who dare to give evidence - the stakes are far higher.
Will this landmark trial finally bring an end to the Krays’ reign of terror - or will it simply add to their growing legend?
A Noiser production, written by Robert Parker. With thanks to Kate Beal Blyth, writer, documentary film-maker, and the author of ‘The Krays: Prison Years’.
This is Part 3 of 3.
