Decided to upload this at the same time as doing the Hannibal Brooks theme video, as they kind of tie in with each other, both being rare not often seen Michael Winner films and starring Oliver Reed and again the screenplay being by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais.

Another Winner film worth tracking down a copy of, I think another kind sole has uploaded the whole film here on You Tube and if you can't track down a DVD copy I'd recommend giving it a watch ...

Oliver Reed and Michael Crawford play two brothers who are always trying to find some way to succeed with cleverness rather than simple drudgery. Crawford is constantly living in his brother's shadow as the one who gets caught. After Crawford is forced to resign from the army after an episode of unappreciated cleverness, the two decide their careers would go better if there was a large amount of publicity, so they decide to steal the crown jewels from the tower of London. Bombs, misdirection, disguises and acting allow them to enter the tower with all of the alarms turned off.
