Quotes:
"In reality, only a select few individuals hold the power of influence. Not a pout over a luxury item never to be owned, but real influence over police, governments, and even clandestine fraternities."
(00:00:02 - 00:00:14)
“Like most young tradesmen, we're all living hand to mouth, existing as weekend millionaires…”
(00:03:08 - 00:03:17)
"When I got there, to the side of the pub, it was murder scene. There was police tape everywhere, the helicopter overhead, and it was so low, I could see the pilots inside as clear as they were in a car in front of me."
(00:09:27 - 00:09:38)
"And even when you think you're giving the max, then you won't believe how much more is in you. And it's sometimes when looking back, the enlightenment of the situation, the experience, however terrible it was, because I now understand that in some strange way that in being tested I'm able to achieve things that I would never have thought possible."
(00:20:13 - 00:20:32)
"Darren is a quick learner and he has a pleasant manner. He gets the job done with ease, which he often does with 70% of his effort. Who knows what Darren might achieve if he were able to give 100%."
(00:21:40 - 00:21:50)
"I looked opposite and there was this guy sitting there, he didn't look old at all, 20s, he had a baby face, bald head, immaculate suit, tailored suit, Rolex, fine shoes, clean cut, tanned. He looked like he had a few quid, but he also looked like he was fucking battered."
(00:23:13 - 00:23:29)
