Reggie would spend years behind bars in some of Britain’s toughest prisons, while Ronnie was confined to Broadmoor, his mental illness controlled only by heavy medication. Chosen by the twins themselves to tell their official story, TV legend Fred Dinenage became one of the very few people ever granted access to their inner circle - gaining extraordinary insight into the real lives behind the headlines.
