Charles Bronson. A name that sparks fear, fascination, and endless debate. In Being Bronson: Part 1, Sky News Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt takes us inside the life—and mind—of Britain’s most infamous inmate.

For nearly 50 years, Bronson has lived behind bars, most of it in solitary confinement. His explosive reputation was immortalized in the 2008 Tom Hardy film Bronson, but the real story goes far deeper than Hollywood ever showed.

Martin shares never-before-heard insights from his personal correspondence with Bronson, including exclusive letters and candid conversations. We trace Bronson’s criminal path—from petty crimes to headline-grabbing violence behind bars—and explore his ongoing battle for parole. Has he changed? Or is he still the most dangerous man in the British prison system?

Don’t miss this gripping first installment of a two-part deep dive into the man behind the myth.

Coming in Part 2: Renowned criminal psychiatrist Dr. Bob Johnson, who met Bronson face-to-face, breaks down the psychological profile of a man many call unbreakable.
