- British journalist, formerly a criminal.
- John McVicar studied for a degree during his incarceration and now acts as a 'pundit' on crime and punishment'.
- [quoted in closing credits for McVicar (1980)] Being a thief is a terrific life. But the trouble is they put you in jail for it.
- As a criminal I have been a lamentable failure. Whatever money I gained by crime I could have earned as a labourer in half the time I spent in prison.
