An audacious group of retired thieves and robbers unite to pull off a huge heist during The Easter weekend of 2015.
It's a very well made, very well acted series. I imagine bits of it were dramatised, but having read up extensively about it, they seemed to stick to the core.
If I'm honest, I think parts one and two drag a little, they could really have condensed them into one, parts three and four however are excellent. It gets better and better as it progresses.
Part four reveals the tensions and rivalries that exist, the term about thieves falling out had never been more true, you'll wonder if they'd have been a little wiser, and less greedy, it they'd have gotten away with it.
Timothy Spall and Kenneth Cranham stand out for me, but the whole cast are excellent.
8/10.
