This is one of the lesser known Children's Film Foundation titles.

Night Ferry stars Bernard Cribbins as a leader of a gang of thieves who is also a master of disguise.

He has robbed a priceless Egyptian sarcophagus and has an ingenious plan to take it out of Britain to France on the night ferry.

Jeff is the boy who stumbles on to the plan. He and his friends try to stop the Egyptian sarcophagus to be taken out of the country.

There is a lot of location filming in various parts of London. The film is passable but it is a little too basic.

Like a other kids own adventures, the various children band together to stop the robbers and enlist the help of adults who will believes them.

Cribbins enjoys himself as the cunning and ruthless robber.
