Further details
News of the robbery has spread fast and wide. It's all over the news, all over the world. The gang are oblivious at first, as they stash the gold in a hiding place and Clive offers what he calls an 'even split' - Albert and his pals take the few grand in cash that they stole and leave dealing with the gold to Clive and Joey. But Mick suspects that's not actually very even at all...
Meanwhile the police are sniffing around. Detective Saunders, as old school as they come, suggests a synchronised raid on every known armed robber in London but his new colleague Thread has an altogether more modern idea. Puzzled by how the gang got into the warehouse with no sign of forced entry, she suspects an inside job and wants to gather the security guards for a reconstruction.
Sidney quickly caves and gives the police the names they're looking for. Or so they think ...
