Plot Outline: Martine offers Terry a lead on a foolproof bank hit on Londons Baker Street. She targets a roomful of safe deposit boxes worth millions in cash and jewelry. But Terry and his crew dont realize the boxes also contain a treasure trove of dirty secrets – secrets that will thrust them into a deadly web of corruption and illicit scandal.
Plot: Business is slow for Terry Leather, a London car dealer, married with children. Hes an artful dodger, so Martine, a former model with a thing for him, brings him her scheme: a banks alarm is off for a couple weeks, so lets tunnel into the vault. He assembles a team, not realizing her real goal is a safe-deposit box with compromising photos of a royal: she needs the photos to trade for avoiding a jail sentence – and M-5, or is it M-6, is pulling the strings two steps removed. A Trinidadian thug, a high-end bordello owner, and a pornographer also have things stored in the vault, so the break-in threatens many a powerful personage. Is there any way these amateurs can pull it off?

Crazy Credits: We know about 1 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
The ending credits are presented in the same typeface as Professor Umbridges numerous educational decrees.

Goofs: We know about 13 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Anachronisms: Although the film is set in 1971, signs on various shop doors seen in the film advertise that credit cards “Visa” and “Mastercard” are accepted. The name “Visa” was not used for the charge card before 1977 (replacing Barclaycard in the UK); “Mastercard” was “Master Charge” until 1979.

Trivia: There are 3 entries in the trivia list – like these:

• Aldwych station was chosen to film the underground scenes because the true Tottenham Court Road station had been modified extensively in the early 1980s. Only Edgware Road still has any resemblance to its original look.
• Roger Donaldson said one of the most difficult days of filming was when he filmed the brothel scene. The scene called for the women to be walking around wearing only garters. However, Donaldson said that when he went to film the scene he discovered that most of the women shaved their genitals, which would have been anachronistic for 1971. So the actresses had to wear pubic wigs called “merkins.” This caused a problem because the merkins were hard to secure in place and kept slipping, causing Donaldson much aggravation.
• SPOILER: In its edition of February 16, 2008 The Daily Mail newspaper reported “The four men caught, charged and convicted of the raid went to jail without ever having their names mentioned in the press, and to this day their identities and the circumstances of their capture remain secret. Even the lengths of their sentences are still shrouded in mystery.”
