The reliability of Dave Courtney's anecdotes can be ranked somewhere between those of Carl Beech and Jay from the Inbetweeners
Hahahaha!!!!
I give more credit to random graffiti scrawled on the inside of bar toilets.
@@KingFluffs I give more credit to pornhub telling me hot women in my area want to have sex with me.
Awesome loll
@TheGooners11 If you think about his situation it would have to be 50/50 or 60/40 or similar either way,that would ensure that any slip-ups that could convict or connect him to any future criminal case can be put down to 'artistic license' or vived imagination to promote his books etc.
“I gave the England team talk before the 1966 World Cup final and that’s why we won.” - Dave Courtney. 😂
Hahaha when he was 7
"Not only did I give the SAS tactical advice before we went into the Iranian Embassy in 1980 but I also loaned them blokes and weapons" 😅
You sure that wasn't Brian Cockerill? :P
The English version of Gianni Russo lol.

R.I.P Dave Courtney absolute legend 🙏
The guy is a cross between Dr Evil and Zippy from Rainbow.
nb7 9uk 😂
You mean George from rainbow and jimmy savile
Throw in a bit of Tehwway tibbs an we’re good to go.
😂
😂 😂 😂
When I first saw this video, the first thing I thought was "can't wait to read the comments section". 😅😅😂😂😂😂
Great shout about av slope.Felt exact same.
Yeap thought the exact same👌😂😂
same here, didn't know he was still around.
Spot on 😂😂😂
Too right. The last video re his prowess at Flatpack Furnite Assembly gets things going for me.
"choose the weapon you don't mind doing the bird for"
What excellent life advice...
😂😂😂
Agreed. I thought a deadly weapon was a deadly weapon tho no matter what, or maybe it depends where you are.
Its actually good advice. The only smart thing I've heard him say. He is apparantly a crime lord but says he doesn't understand why you "give" away cocaine.
@@lukethompson4260 even he'd piss himself laughing if he heard he was a crime lord
😂😂😂😂
*"I'm multi racial myself, my wife is Jamaican"* 😂 😂 😂 😂
dear god😂😂😂😂
Same as me I got a black and white tv 😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@discodaveschannel8226 me too, I've got a Chinese postman
So is his boyfriend
Oh how I cried laughing at that, like a little Britain sketch 😂
Never let the truth get in the way of a good story!
That's the truest statement on here lol
His comment about coke is probably the truest description I have ever heard
Nah, the only reason he never did coke was because people typically don't share their gear with dickheads
Nah cause if you do enough coke to get twacked then you are definitely high and definitely feel it. He acts like it just makes you feel normal. No if you do a couple tenths as a normal person you're gonna be high as hell if you have a tolerance and do half a gram to a gram you're gonna be high. He probably did half a tenth or less and didnt feel anything but a lil energy like an espresso would give and thought it was shit. You do enough and you experience a hell of a euphoria that many other drugs cant rival
Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim My thoughts exactly, feckin snitch can’t keep it shut
Zack Thayer the more you do the worse it feels. After a gram or two the only good feeling u get from it is when ur racking up.
So true tho
THE GANGSTER CODE:
1/ SHORT HAIR
2/ SHINY SHOES
3/ BE NICE TO YOUR MUM
Oh yeah, no swearing in front of women. Lol
And don't hit women ! Haha !
Howd you forget the most important one? Don't tell tales
Bo Zi it’s a joke lol
I talked about his in my main comment on here, to me being nice to my mum means not getting involved in crazy shit like this lol
“You’d break in to someone’s house and leave em a fiver!” 🤣🤣🤣

"I've been flying helicopters for like 87 years"😂
Legal is now Fatter I think!
Couldnt have put it better myself...yip dave is the bullsido of "gangsters"..the fake martial artist and who is a grand master of no touch, but dave claims he touched everything from guns,banks to your mrs.
John Pappan I feel like I’m the only one that knows where you got that from

Dave Courtney. A legend in his own mind !!!!!
He was such a legend McDonald’s named a burger after him
I know Courtney promotes himself and he was never a big time gangster but he genuinely did know most of faces in the 70s and 80s he knows how that world works he's been on the edge of crime all his life dabbling in everything
@@michaelharrison3602 yeah right. Car dealer and pound shop Terry Tibs. Being a jock I'm about as scared of a "London gangsta" than I am of the Burger King I'm about to munch. I slap Londoners about for a pastime.

Patrick Bet~David is the BEST interviewer out! The way he gets his guests to open up without forcing the tempo or vibe the conversation makes his interviews feel like two lost friends reconnecting and shooting the shit! I love the diversity of his guests SaLuTe & KEEP ⬆️ the PHENOMENAL work Patrick 👏 🙌 🤘💯
David Courtney is a cartoon character. Interviewer see this early on.
This is the most comically unique interview I've seen in a while. 😂😂😂🥃 With a touch of class
'no one had nothing, you'd break into someone's house and LEAVE them a fiver. You felt terrible'
I diedddd lol
@@kadzdaman8474 really, you died ?

🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Made me laugh far more than it should have done!!
Terry Tibbs was actually funny
I first met Dave when we were both 12yrs old at Forest Hill school. Some people say some shit about him. He's totally a genuine bloke. I'm one of he's oldest mates.
No you're not
Cool story. Tell it again.
This English Gangster is a Comedian & my first laugh of my morning! Lol!
He's changed quite a bit since I'm too sexy for my shirt!
Ahahabahahaa

Ahahahahahah
This was one where I just came for the comments.
Sosa, phoned Dave, for backup, before storming Tony Montana's mansion! 🤣🤣
wtching this in the UK. Patrick you handled the slang brilliantly lol. The pop up explanations, to me, are hilarious. Great interview.
“Maserati.......

schmatever I really don't care what washes so I know it dose wash.
DirtyyChimp
He is good in all the estates though everybody rates him.. He must still knock it out hahaha
@Chief Sunna jesus you're a miserable bastard haha
The irony of this automatically playing after a video on David Hunt ….
I always thought there was a vein of honesty in gangsters... How refreshing it is to hear the voice of Dave speak so much truth and be so candid. I have been spouting this stuff for years, only to have it all fall on deaf ears....God bless you Dave :) And God bless the host too :)
🤣🤣
Lol
Dave Courtney , self proclaimed gangster. That says it all really.
@K L
Damn you're thick. "...SELF proclaimed gangster. Says it all really..."
How do you not understand you are saying the same thing? Both of you are saying he is full shit but you want to argue KL.
He was old Kent Road bouncer and a debt collector and nothing more than that
@@johnlewis9158 Hes known in south though and respected by many he is good in brikky etc.
@J130 G810 The guys a joke I've no ides why anyone takes him seriously
@Armoured Rat I don't think he's serious do you?
In the UK we all know how “gangster” he actually is.
mike his biggest weapon was his phone 999 he was a protected police informer. He was aloud to do certain things for information on others true facts
@mike he would not of run the doors if he was a soft cunt. if you successful you get haters in uk
As about 'gangster' as Capt. Kangaroo, huh?
I’m sure valuetainment and David have done their research and wouldn’t interview him if there wasn’t some validity to his reputation.
Dylan stanford reputations aren’t always accurate
"I'm not glamourising crime... I'm glamourising DAVE!". I really found that very funny.
Just discovered who you are about two weeks ago, Love your work patrick, great content great attitude. Keep it up
I like Dave. His self delusion and megalomaniac personality is entertaining to me
Dan B that’s all he was A JOKE amongst the criminal world everyone likes a Vilage idiot to make them fill good about there selfs .
Handbags and glad rags. 😂😂😂
When this guys movie is made, I hope it's Mike Myers that plays him.
I need sharks with lazer beams on their fricking heads!!!
kernowarty come mini me!!!!!
Terry Tibs (Phonejacker) already has been playing him.
Jimmy Saville would probs play u in a film u maddy
Phillip Schofield would give a good portrayal of him
His impression of Frankie Frazer on the cover of his book was hilarious 😆
Best interview on this channel...this guy is great stuff!
Yeh😂😂😂😂😂😂get a life sad Twat
Dude looks like every englishman I've seen borderline passed out drunk at noon in Mallorca
its where they go on the run too lol
@Andrew Wells you have a few missing brain cells.
Or Benidorm
Aye.. On holiday after a hard weeks graft. Us
Yea hahaha I was the guy in mallorca falling about drunk telling old war stories lol
One of the best interviews I’ve watched. Scary to think this man literally had me in tears laughing but could still have me in tears for other reasons. Unbelievable interview Dave
You are easily amused.
@@chopper8357 Well you watched it, didn't you, you plonker
Tears? He's soft as shite🤣
An outstanding interview...DC sharp, funny and tells u as it is..
Never had much time for DC,but i now find him very entertaining with great intellect, truth, and honesty of what's what in that world.enjoyed the interview.
Hardest thing getting busted on coke, telling cops no comment - pissed myself laughing at that.
I know lol do you think that’s his way of saying he’s a snitch 😯
Lovely Jubbly how is saying “no comment” being a snitch? Lol
@@DoktrDub It's what he said in the next sentence is what he's referring to. ''No comment. Okay, I'll tell you a bit!
Its bullshit you dont get questioned while under the influence, been banged up many times wired n worse thing is been off ya box in a cell pacing unable to get your head dwn paranoid out ya head
@@theloser4886 😂😂 yeah I know. When I’m off my nut. I can’t even talk. When I get to wired. Wtf is he on about blblblblblblblb 😂. I suppose some people do waffle on it
If all gangsters were like him, the police would be laughing
Criminals and Gangsters love telling their stories.. you've never done something you wish you could talk about but never could? Once you get a certain age you can talk about everything without worrying about what will happen to you
have you seen the police in the UK?
How little you know.
Have we got a keyboard warrior?
Someone said the same to me last week but to be fare I sent my fingers out to war totally fearless of the consequences 👉🏻🦄
Absolutely brilliant! The London gangsters are no joke. Almost got myself in trouble once asking about it here in the states.
Family car, talk to me.
@white death if anyone asks you watched me peel them fuckan potatas for 2 ours
maserati, talk to me
I got a bwand new motor, 50 on the clock it’s going going gone if you don’t take it dave now I’ll need 10 up front and 2 down low that’s a 12 grand car Dave talk to me.
Callon Jesus I’ll tell you what wiggght. I’ll do the whole lat for 4 narrryn narrrrn
Horses 4 Corses haha haha.
these interviews are amazing! 😍
I don't think so! You are given a platform to that kind of behaviour and shaking his hand someone that beat and maybe killed and robbed money from member of the public. Arrest him we don't need mafia or gangster on our streets of London
@@DrBiBeatz this is just an interview, won't change what has already been done... Valuetainment is a business channel and the scope of these interviews is to somehow extrapolate some business lesson that can be learnt by these Mobs. The Mafia guy getting interviewed also said that would not advise anyone to become a Mob. Of course we can all agree that Mafia is sh*t, but we also need acknowledge that it exist (more so 20-30 years ago).
@@DrBiBeatz it's criminals and Gangsters who run our country, they are called MPs, their mob is the police. Don't you understsnd this?
@@DrBiBeatz He's not a Gangster, he's a story teller
@@LArtedellaCrescitaPersonale Dave Courtney is a fantasist.
Great stories and smart philosophies! So true! Cheers to Dave!
Dave sadly took his own life on 22.Oct-23. Its said he shot himself , friends of Dave's said he was his usual self the day before visiting his soccer team Charlton ,It's believed Dave had cancer and didn't want to be a burden to his elderly mother, It was a big shock many of his friends made comments like " Why didn't you call me and we could have talked about it" Dave will be a big loss to London and the UK. RIP Dave "OBE Camelot" 🙏🙏
Daves always been adept at storytelling.This however, is the most insightful entertaining, sensible and interesting interview of his Ive seen.Nice job Dave.
way ye go and stop talking shite.
Patrick is consistent with his content
Love Dave Courtney such a legend and was an honour to party with him and Jen back in the day. Such a genuine man ❤RIP 🫶🏽🙏🏾
The King of Bullshit
I absolutely love this interview!
Terry Tibs
Quality 😂😂😂
Talk to me
Yeah what you want ?
needs to tickeled
Italian fireplace... talk to me... 😂
He was just a loan shark who used to bully the poor
@Matt
It's really not you know! You have you make sure you spell correctly and that the grammar and punctuation is spot on! It's a lota ard fakin work! Spewing shit is far easier in person.
@Matt Easy to talk shit to a camera. Check out Dave.
I find it hard to believe he was ever even a loan shark anyone who could stand up for theirself would just knock him how did he ever make any money
He wasn't even a loan shark he was a collector for loan sharks.
He did it Dressed like kenny Everett. If they weren't old they'd have laughed at him and told him to fuch off as he looked like a raving Iron.
That alarm at the end was so well placed that I thought they put that in as effects 😂
Another great interview👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
ive been fed up all week and its xmas day and this video shows up on my feed and i havent laughed so much in weeks. thankyou dave courtney
Thanks again for the great content, I could listen to his story’s all day, would love a PART 2!
Loool Patrick made his thoughts on the guy clear by adding the graphic 'self proclaimed former gangster'
The alarm. That is just priceless. Wow. Haha. Thanks for this interview. ☑️✌🏼
Mate I absolutely loved this sit down! One of the best by far. You need to have another sit down with him and ask some questions, amazingly I watched the whole thing before I realised that you barely questioned him. Keep up the great work by the way, although we are a small nation I would love to see you interview an Aussie underworld figure like "John Ibrahim" or the like. God bless.
American fan here, get some of those crazy aussies in here. They almost as crazy as us
For what that dude delusional he is a junkie he is high in this interview
Hes dead now he committed suicide
You are a very good listener , assertive and you show respect and get respect and it makes these interviews very good.
Yeah he is good. Doesn't make the show all about him like some.
16:23. When he looks at Dave Courtney and went hmm I pissed myself 😂😂😂 he was probably thinking what’s this guy on about lool
RIP Dave Courtney.
Dave is the Fredo Corleone of the underworld...……...
They only way to be a good criminal is to go work for the government.
Definitely.
yeah, the government see a good racket and they move right in. in the us and canada they've taken all the mobs lucrative scams and turned them into tax revenue streams through casinos, lotteries, legal pot , liqour. anything that can make a buck, they want a fucking piece of
@@randyrysdale852 exactly
Yeah join the old bill
Or be a banker
Love this guy. He could do comedy and knock it out the park. Awesome Podcast.
He has done some stand up comedy, he's a funny guy.
Love this badass interview you guys are awesome thank you Patrick to you and your guest
"Biggest employer in America is the Legal system..."
Wow, Great point
It is said that 50% of the world's attorneys are American. I don't know what the actual percentage are Americans, but I'd venture to say that number is close to being accurate.
@inside outside upside downside that was kind of his point, it's not in their interest to stop crime because otherwise there wouldn't be enough job, not saying I agree, but you can see the logic
this is probably the only interview I’ve seen him do where he’s being genuine & not bigging himself up.
Lol. That's all he's doing.
Opportunity costs. Your show is the safe bet. Great content, super interesting.
Dave is an intelligent and articulate man and in this interview he clearly demonstrates it. He is engaging, funny and entertaining and should have his own chat show. He could equally write a serious sociology book.
Definitely
defo funny and intelligent , he is 100% joker ,
he always says he is always the joker whatever situation but sometimes he mixes the comedy with being a hardman which dont work
🤣🤣🤣😂
Tripping 😂
Get a grip
Hands down the best Valuetainment Interview. Dave is such a good storyteller, that Patrick would for the most part let Dave do all the talking.
@Bret Harts testicle I lived not to far from Dave the bullshitter where he's just a laughing stock
@@thelion43 Like everyone knew the Cray's who are from London in H.M.P?
Dave's a fucking Charlatan
love how He says he went to batter Frankie Frazier who was 78!! Frazier in his day woulda made this mug into a human pizza
Probably right Frazier was never a fighter but he would have cut you up given half the chance by all accounts from the people in his era
Dave was really well on his way of been Britain hardest gangster. who only used knuckle duster .in his early 30,s he got 3 years knocked of his 78 months jail sentence for stealing 10_13 years old lunch money .he tells story in book about 45 minute fist fight that he just wone against a 12 year old.he learned his lesson after that to be more careful after near fight till the death . so he vowed that he only robs people 65 and over with disabilities and knicking salvation army money tins out charity shops .books worth a read .it's scary and funny
Everyones a tough guy when ur opponent is tied to a chair 🙄
If he was strapped to a chair first yeah, Dave is a wanker but he knuckle dust Frazer in to the ground and I’d pay to see it 🤣
Paul Harvey 🤣🤣🤣
I never used to like dave Courtney but after this interview he speaks sense and seems pretty genuine
R.I.P dave courtney
He was 7 when the krays got sentenced, talks like he was knocking about with them🤔
Nah but he ran security with them and for their funeral and he was speaking to him whatever is inside prison so if you know you know if you don't

@velveteyes79 m8 Dave was a melt but was connected like he's said before he's most dangerous thing was his phone book it makes me laugh coz every one talks shit about him in the comments I think he some fake flamboyant plastic idiot but he's know he's worth a couple million so he's done allrite
@Trash picking Pete bro London had a higher murder rate than new youk u American don't no real ones do but obviously u ain't got a clue if your beefing over areas going to the chicken shop could be game over hit trying to do people on the school run England is predominantly known for stabbings has a lot of shootings but these young boys are stabbing each other daily in the big cities serious s*** but you wouldn't know because you think we drink tea and biscuit
@Trash picking Pete New Jersey has the mafia no doubt. Free teh boys of Bensonhoist.. But cockney crims like Dave might not be the most powerful but there are some serious people in there. You'd have to be on the wrong side of it. But then again who needs to hurt people and so on. Dave and his mates will not go to the lethal option anywhere near as fast as some gangs. But why should, you. Unless you are cruel and have no honor you get gangster respect!? He is liked cos he ain't heartless. Most of the accounts here saying he is this he is that are Hollywood types and coppers.
Really enjoyable one this. His outline about exactly what went wrong with English kids is undeniable.
good interview!
I grew up in South London and used to see Dave Courtney all the time in Caesers Night Club in Streatham Hill. At that time the boys with him were the biggest blokes I had ever seen this side of the tele!
Note: Always looked like he was having a giggle and a good time LOL
I love that line. 34:40 So skint you break into someone's house and leave 'em a fiver.
Great content as usual.
Aways good to listen to this guy says it as it is ❤️
Awesome interview! 👌🏼
27:12 "They're taking pictures of you from the moon" haha
Amazing that Pat is in the UK, not many Americans to look into the UK and what it has to offer. Pat is a genius for tapping into the market.
@ubervation sorry about that mate, I'll try to avoid giving Patrick any props in future mate, cheers.
Go watch the interview with pablo Escobar and stop bitchin
@ubervation the uk is not really a place an American would think to go to to interview gangsters.more so when you think that 99.9% of Americans couldn't understand a word this guy is saying,I'm surprised Patrick can understand him.
@@marksmith8732 99.9% of English can not understand that Cockney gangster
@ubervation It's okay, they're unfamiliar with leaving the country as the government is already building the wall round them at the moment! (to keep everyone OUT*)

26:30 'they heard me having a ...' couldn't stop laughing at that comment

You mean working class?
a legend in his own mind
No mark, mad Frankie was 100% right about him
Great interview
Unbelievable documentary!! 🙏🙏
If you want a laugh.. Watch Daves Gangster Movie "Full English Breakfast" .. It's so badly made and acted..but due to that fact its a actually great film..If you get what I mean...
I love that film, especially the badly dubbed gun shots 😂
I watched 'Hell To Pay', that was more than enough for me.
He's actually not a bad actor though, there's a film called 'Babyjuice Express' that he was in, (just acting, amongst a cast of professional actors) and it was pretty good.
Those movies where he thought he could write, direct, star in, edit, and produce them with his mates,
WOW, they're something else entirely!
I watched triads yardies and onion bargies and it’s awful
Hell to pay,watched that one.The film was shit but enjoyable.I had it on dvd out of a bargain bucket.If you do watch it,put the commentary on.Dave is hilarious!!
Is it the room level bad? So bad its a masterpiece?
