The Richardson Gang the Richardson gang, Jimmy Andrews, was injured in the affray and went for treatment at the Whitechapel Hospital the day after. This was where George Cornell, one of the few members of the Richardson gang who were not in jail or hospital, and an old friend of Andrews, went to visit him. That evening at about 8:30 Cornell was inside the Blind Beggar public house. Ronnie Kray arrived with two associates and shot Cornell through the head at close range, killing him. One of several local businessmen, in the saloon bar at the time, said he heard Cornell's last words:
Kray twins the twins, James Fox met Ronnie whilst the twins were held at HM Prison Brixton as part of his research for his role in the 1970 film "Performance," and Richard Burton visited Ronnie at Broadmoor as part of his preparation for his role as a violent gangster in the 1971 film "Villain". In the British soap opera Eastenders, Grant Mitchell describes local crime boss Johnny Allen as being "on Ronnie and Reggie mode". 'Warped' by Martin Malcolm directed by Russell Lucas opens at VAULT Festival in 2019. The play tells the story of two young men who idolise the Krays.
