Hells Angels take a mini break (1972)

If you’re looking for something to do this bank holiday weekend take inspiration from this brilliant BBC doc on a group of British Hells Angels

The film is full of wonderful moments. The lead character - Mad John - goes round to see his wife, but completely ignores her because he finds a letter to him from the fountainhead of Angeldom - the California Angels chapter.

His wife stomps off leaving Mad John with his suitcase of memorabilia. Inside the suitcase is a magazine called “Big Chopper” and a real chopper. He sits with his only real friend - his alsatian dog called Hitler.

Would love to know where they are now assuming they are still breathin of course…

I’ve seen this before, it’s a interesting programme.
