Calling Time on the Krays: The Barmaid's Tale

Calling Time on the Krays: The Barmaid's Tale

James Morton
0/5 ( ratings)
On 9 March 1966, Ronnie Kray and Ian Barrie walked into the Blind Beggar public house in East London and murdered George Cornell. Of the people in the pub on the night of the killing, one witness's evidence was crucial - the barmaid's.

Calling Time On The Krays is the extraordinary true story of the woman who braved the might of London's most notorious criminal organisation when she agreed to give the evidence that secured the conviction of Ronnie Kray. After thirty years as a gangland target, Mrs X now vividly relives the hopes and fears of her life in hiding, when she was forced to protect her true identity and move from safe house to safe house in a desperate attempt to preserve herself and her three children from being silenced for good. A compelling insight into a life shaped by one terrifying experience, Calling Time On The Krays not only documents a dramatic criminal legacy but also poses the question: why are Ronnie and Reggie regarded as heroes in our society?
