Terry Leather (Statham), who owns a small used car lot in London's East End, wishes to leave his shady past behind and start a family. When a beautiful former neighbor, Martine (Burrows), approaches Terry with a foolproof plot to rob Lloyds Bank, Terry recognizes the potential danger of the Job but believes this may be the chance of a lifetime. Along with a ragtag gang, the East Ender burrows into a vault in London's most popular bank. The contents of the safe-deposit boxes reveal a great deal of dirty secrets by London's movers and shakers. Now 35 years after the crime, with the government gag order expired, we learn what really happened in one of Britain's biggest and least-known robberies in which no money was ever recovered nor was any perpetrator ever arrested. (Stacey Pendry)
