Must Watch

Wednesday 17th June - How I Became Known As The UK’s Number 1 Hitman

In this gripping episode of OMG Stories: Up Close, Kevin Lane explains how a reputation created by headlines, rumours, and a single case came to define him as “the UK’s Number 1 Hitman” — a name that stuck long before he ever had the chance to tell his side of the story. Kevin takes us back to his early years, how he became known to police, how media narratives took hold, and how a label can grow far bigger than the person behind it. He reflects on the psychology of young men chasing status and respect, the moment everything changed, and what it’s like to spend decades living with a name the public thinks they already understand. He also speaks openly about the reality of serving a long sentence, the isolation, the constant self-reflection, and the quiet transformation that happens over years behind closed doors. After release, Kevin shares how difficult it was to rebuild a life when your name alone opens search results — and closes doors. Watch below:
