Rough Diamond

If you know Sir David Jason best as cantankerous copper Jack Frost in A Touch of Frost, you’re in for a surprise when you meet him as an aging, expert thief named Des. Cheer and chuckle as the senior scoundrel dons outrageous disguises to outsmart the authorities in four hilarious capers. Armed with irresistible charm and deliciously sly wit, he’ll do whatever it takes to acquire a priceless jewel in Buckingham Palace, £8 million hidden by the KGB after the Cold War, and pension funds stolen by a corporate consultant. All in the criminal course of a day’s work, Des transforms himself into a harmless simpleton, an umbrella executive and a security expert—and makes you laugh! Broadcast in the UK under the title Diamond Geezer.
