The Krays

Audio problem: When Reggie threatens the man outside his club, Reggie's boyfriend runs at him shouting "You stupid bastard..." and he is restrained by the gang. His lips never actually say these words.

Factual error: The recruits' hair is far too long when they parade after being conscripted. In those days Army recruits practically had their heads shaved - sideburns were shaved off to one inch above the ear (Army regulations). Curiously, this applies to the Staff Sergeant too - his hair would barely be visible under his hat.

Trivia: The Kray twins were played by the Kemp brothers Gary and Martin, who are not twins. The Kemps are the founders of the well-known British band Spandau Ballet, who were very well-known in the 1980s.
