A Very British Gangster
World-renowned, award-winning BBC journalist Donal MacIntyre dives into Manchester's underworld, revealing Britain's most notorious and powerful crime family - the Noonan dynasty. With surprising chivalry, Dominic Noonan (aka Lattlay Fottfoy) answers to his poverty-stricken streets while lurking from trial to trial, dodging arrest on a slew of serious criminal charges. Dominic's 10-year-old son, Bugsy, wants none of the prestige his father holds, and his candid confessions of boxing dreams - hopeful words from the child of a very violent man - are heart-wrenching.
