The Heist.

[Nobby Diesel]

Don't know if anyone saw The Heist on tv earlier in the week.
Basically, they take 6 real life ex cons (all reformed apparently) and ask them to test the security of a target by trying to steal something from the target. This week it was a painting from an art exhibition. The security manager at the target knows it's going to happen, so it's a test for his procedures.
By looking at the trail for next weeks show, it looks like they are going to try to steal a prototype TVR; I guess from the factory.
Probably the funniest thing on tv since Donal McIntyre stitching up herberts in Portsmouth.

Why would you possible agree to put yourself up for this show. If they fail, you've "only done your job properly". If they succeed and get the thing away from you, who will employ you in a security role again ?

They have already booked an AA man to wait outside the factory for them!

They'll prob use a recovery truck  

There was a TVR club camped opposite us this year at LM, cant have been official as no recovery vehicles there

Don't be so nasty... Don't you remember, both cars crossed the line this year (no, not on a recovery truck).

My sisters car hasnt ever been recovered. Even when it drove home a few years back with 7 cylinders. She hadnt realised the HT leads werent attached properly.

I saw the trailer on TV last night, it looked like the new prototype Sagaris.

Here's to hoping the programme ends in a "Worlds Most Dangerous Car Chases" style!!
