This is a 3 part documentary and if you love your docs, you’ll know so do Netflix. This true crime caper it is summer 2000 and follow a group of South-East London criminals. They are orchestrating what just might be the most audacious heist of all time. Their plan: use a bulldozer to ram-raid the brand new Millennium Dome in broad daylight, steal the world’s second biggest flawless diamond in a haul worth £350 million, and escape by speedboat down the Thames. There’s just one tiny problem: the Flying Squad are watching.

This sounds like the type of crime story Ritchie loved to make into a feature in his early days. Off course throw in a few extra curveballs, dark humour and a stranger-than-fiction caper!
