Saturday Night at the Movies: The Jokers

on BBC One London

Starring Michael Crawford, Oliver Reed, Harry Andrews
with James Donald, Michael Hordern

Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, creators of TV's Likely Lads, wrote the script for tonight's comedy about two brothers who are practical jokers. But their jokes don't seem to get enough recognition so they plan the 'crime' of the century - lively but unlikely caper to remove the Crown Jewels from the Tower!
