John Massey's story is unique. Having spent a childhood in Borstals
and children's homes, he was arrested and charged with murder in
1975. At large during the 1960s and early 1970s, Massey was a
member of a notorious group of bank robbers, as well as being one
half of a criminal duo the Flying Squad dubbed Laurel and Hardy.
His career of crime saw him hijack a police car after stealing
GBP25,000 from a bank in Romford, steal a huge sum of money from
the Sunday Mirror's weekly payroll, undertake two daring prison
escapes, both of which made front page headlines, and live a life
undercover in the Costa del Sol working for drug smugglers. He has
served time, 43 years in total, in almost every prison in the
country and has known every notorious gangster and villain from the
1960s to the present day, including members of the IRA. In Locks,
Bolts and Bars, Massey, star of Channel 4's What Makes A Murderer
and Britain's longest-serving prisoner, reveals the day-to-day
realities of spending five decades inside, what it takes to escape,
and is a heart-breaking account of what life on the inside can
teach us about life on the outside.
