Synopsis

'An incredible tale.' – Prolific armed robber. Close ally of Joey Pyle. Friend and fellow inmate of the Kray twins. Last man to stand trial with a Kray brother. First prisoner in the notorious Belmarsh Unit … Welcome to Ronnie Field's world. There was a code. It's not there now. The public weren't in general danger from us. Most of our lot never burgled anybody's gaff. None of our lot every mugged people. We didn't hit women. Most of us didn't take drugs. We dressed well.

A raw, honest and sometimes humorous portrayal of a life in the fast lane of organised crime, is a reflection on a bygone era from which there are few regrets. Though some things are best laid to rest…
