It comes before the Parole Board will be asked to decide what level of risk Bronson is to the public next month, with some believing his ability to work and earn money as an artist and support himself could help his parole bid.

He was jailed for armed robbery in 1974 and, but for two brief spells of freedom, has been locked up ever since because of his repeated violence inside jail, mostly towards prison staff.

He said:"His life is his life and if someone wants to pay money for some version of that, then it's up to them. But it scares me to say it, but how long before we see someone like this as the new guest on Big Brother? It's wrong, because people simply shouldn't gain from their crimes, directly or indirectly."

Hundreds of Charles Bronson's cartoonish drawings are going on show and sale, with prices ranging from £700 to £30,000
