Four people steal expensive fur coats and provide the proceeds from their subsequent underground sale to the needy. Terry-Thomas, Seyler, Jacques, and Duxbury are delightful as the bumbling Robin Hoods, making for an enjoyable farce. Also fine is Whitelaw, who resembles Janet Leigh, as a reformed convict. The script is uneven, however, as moments of amusement come only sporadically. A highlight is the scene where Terry-Thomas, who was a master of these types of roles, tries to find a buyer for the stolen goods and ends up at a hilariously wrong destination. On a trivia note, Seyler was by far the oldest of the four actors who play the crooks but outlived them all, living to age 101 while Jacques and Duxbury died before 60.
