Charles Bronson believes his time has come to be released from prison as he prepares for what will potentially be Britain's first public parole hearing.
The 69-year-old, who has spent most of the last 50 years in jail, is one of the UK's most notorious prisoners having served much of his sentence in solitary confinement.
In 2014 Bronson, who is the subject of a 2008 biopic starring Tom Hardy, changed his name to Charles Salvador in honour of artist Salvador Dali.
