Together, they must navigate the seedy criminal underworld and outwit both the police and the real villains who set Simon up.
As the story unfolds, Simon and his motley crew hatch a hilariously outrageous plan to retrieve incriminating evidence from a high-security bank vault.

Audiences will be on the edge of their seats as they root for Simon and his unconventional team to overcome the odds and clear his name. This British comedy is sure to leave viewers in stitches with its quirky characters, clever humor, and fast-paced action.
