Peter Capaldi follows in the footsteps of Alec Guinness, leading the cast as Professor Marcus, leading a ragtag group of law-breakers planning to rob a security van, who use the aged Mrs Wilberforce as their cover.
James Fleet, Ben Miller, Clive Rowe and Stephen Wight make up the oddball gang, played in the 1955 film by Cecil Parker, Herbert Lom, Peter Sellers and Danny Green, whilst they are joined by multi-Olivier Award-winner Marcia Warren as Mrs Wilberforce.
Posing as amateur musicians, Professor Marcus and his gang rent rooms in the lopsided house of sweet but strict Mrs Wilberforce. The villains plot to involve her unwittingly in Marcus’ brilliantly conceived heist job.
The police are left stumped but Mrs Wilberforce becomes wise to their ruse and Marcus concludes that there is only one way to keep the old lady quiet. With only her parrot, General Gordon, to help her, Mrs W. is alone with five desperate men. But who will be forced to face the music?
