A computer expert is used by gangsters for a heist on a newly built bank

This crime drama is based on the 1975 novel of the same name by Desmond Lowden. At the start of the film there are some good shots at London Paddington station with at least four HST sets visible, including set No.253051. There is then a scene filmed in the entrance foyer and on the emergency stairs of Aldwych Underground station, still open of course at the time of filming.
