Diamond Geezer - Season 1 (2007)

Whilst relaxing in the South of France, Des and his son are arrested on suspicion of murder. However Scotland Yard offers them a way out - if they can steal a valuable diamond from inside Buckingham Palace, the charges will be dropped.

Des plans to steal £8 million pounds of Russian gold for the families of Russian and British secret agents who have been killed. Despite Des’ good intentions, will his wrongdoings finally catch up with him?

Des attends the wake of an old friend, who died of a heart attack which his mother believes stems from stressing over money and a pension fund which was stolen from him by asset-stripping firm Leyfield-Clark. Des resolves to steal it back.
