This realist British crime drama stars Mike Sarne as Ricky Flint, a man wholly unsatisfied with his lot. Stifled by his East End upbringing, Ricky thinks the only way to escape is to join in with the robbery of a cigarette factory.

Review
All in all a really good slab of realism directed by the excellent Basil Dearden. Recommended --Radio Times
