Charles Bronson's plan upon release from prison as he bids for freedom

Charles Bronson's first wife has shared his plans for life on the outside as he bids for freedom.

Bronson was first locked up in Walton Jail for armed robbery in 1974 and has since earned the nickname of Britain's most notorious prisoner. The 70-year-old, who previously lived in Ellesmere Port, has spent almost 50 years behind bars and is hoping a parole hearing on March 6 next week will lead to his release.

Bronson, who now goes by the name of Charles Salvador, is currently serving a life sentence for taking prison art teacher Phil Danielson hostage at HMP Hull after he criticised one of his drawings.
