Ray Winstone Quotes

“I had only been in Medomsley Detention Centre a few days when I confronted the ‘Daddy.’ It was well know that he, the Daddy, was the hardest in the place but now he had a challenger and everyone could sense it in the air that a
confrontation or take over bid was on the cards.
Any of you that have seen the film Scum, starring the young Ray Winstone, will be aware of what I’m on about.
After a works detail in the gardens, I was one of the last back. There was big queue stood behind the Daddy while he was washing all the mud from his wellington boots with a hosepipe, and he looked to be taking his time about it as well; talk about taking the piss.
The screws, as usual, were in sight and watching us out of the corner of their eyes. As I got closer, I thought I’m not standing in no fucking queue and walked straight
to the front.
When I got there, I snatched the hosepipe out of his hand and
told him to fuck off and started to clean all the shit off my wellies.
He felt humiliated and tried to grab the hose back off me, but I grabbed him by
the throat and told him I was going to rip his fucking head off. As this was
going down, the screws were straight on the scene and parted us. We never
got done for it, which was very surprising.
He did say to people that he wanted to fight me, but in reality, when I confronted him, he cocked off and there was a new kid on the block. I was the Daddy.”
