They found out about each other by chance and as they delved into their past, they realised thousands of babies in Georgia were stolen from hospitals and sold for adoption, some as recently as 2005. Now they want answers.

some former contemporaries have described the larger then life bloke as being guilty of overstating his role in the east end underworld and his connections but others discount that criticism…. Either way…. He’s gone ..read more

I've been watching this....
Very evocative of the period, but I wonder how true to life it is.
