almost mehl'd this.. but I'd say it was better than most of the rubbish Jason S. is in, 1st half really had my attention, but it kinda started to wander in the later half..
6/10

Watching it on Sky+ demand thingy at the moment, seems easy enough to watch wouldn't rank it as definite watch though. Eldest is home from school now so had to stop it.

Watched on Saturday night, good film. I think a fair bit was factual. The robbery did happen and the theives were caught after being overheard by a radio ham.

Also shortly after the robbery some scandals broke in the tabloid press based on some interesting pictures of public figures that were rumoured to be from the robbery but never proven to be so. I don't think a D notice was ever issued though and the royal thing was poetic licence....surely?

I have no idea looked on Wiki but it was all speculation and being wiki is less reliable than the film. They reckon it was Princess Margaret who was a bit of a goer by all accounts.
