Michael Caine's Gang Past

Veteran actor Michael Caine has revealed the truth about his gang past – he only joined a group of teenage thugs for protection.

The Get Carter star is set to wow cinema-goers with his role as a vigilante in violent revenge movie Harry Brown, which is released this month.

He recently confessed he joined a gang in his youth, before finding fame in a string of acclaimed movies in the 1960s.

But he insists there was a good reason for it – he needed protection while growing up in a tough area of south London.

Caine says, "I was in a gang. But you don't join a gang to go out and smash the daylights out of someone, you join a gang so that no one smashes the daylights out of you. Because if you're walking around on your own, you are a target. That's why you join a gang.

"Admittedly there are criminal psychopaths out there who you can't deal with and you should lock up, but I'm on about the innocent ones."
