Sneakers

on BBC One London

Comedy thriller starring Robert Redford, Dan Aykroyd, Ben Kingsley

Martin Bishop once thought he could be a computer age Robin Hood. Now older and wiser, he simply wants to scrape a living with his unorthodox team of high-tech operatives. Then a pair of government agents "persuade" the sneaky associates to steal a mathematical genius's mysterious creation. On after the job is done does Bishop realise he has delivered a potentially devastating device into dangerous hands. Getting it back will take all the quirky ingenuity his crew can muster.
(1992, 15)
