A Perfect Robbery not carried out by crooks, £1.8 million in today's money in used notes

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- It was a robbery that must have taken months of planning and police had nothing.... what turned out to be a cash van raid would turn out to be a total nightmare of no leads for the CID and robbery squad,the usual suspects were rounded up because it is always the usual suspects and police from different forces including flying squad kept an eye if any criminals with any form would vanish or start making big purchases,With nothing a month later a Crimewatch appeal was released after hundreds of calls and some promising leads led to nothing that the police could run with.
A year after the Brinks Mat raid police had their hands full..................................#
When police found out who they were it was shocking to everyone,but can the police get them#

2nd description drawing looks like Beavis and butthead 😂
did you get the 45k reward?
These old jobs were a thing of beauty
work of art, in control everyone knew their job
Take me back there please 80’s
It was insured, relax.
And we gave 30% to a local charity
p ..vbbbb
😂😂😂👌🏻
The worst crime here was the comb over
Mexican style moustache, but I guess they didn’t know about Hulk Hogan then😂
I remember Group4 in the 89s and 90s going through a bad time including robberies like this and prisoners getting away from their vans.
They didn’t half have a bad time amount of armed robberies on the drivers was alarming
Were some of the drivers who worked for Group4
In on the robberys giving inside information to the robbers?
@@user-kl4bh4lq6rI’m not sure you know
One of em even stole a van while the driver & guards chased after the runaways
I really enjoy these old crime story's keep up great work 👍
Thank you for that

Loved this program back on the day
Never mind the robbery......marvel at the policeman's comb-over 😃 ❤
And the robbers moustache
He's fooling no one 🤨
Proper Bobby Charlton job that.
This story begins in Ireland this kinda job was common from the 70s Irish used to travel over to England to rob banks. One crew had a run of two years.
It doesn't begin in Ireland
There a bit about Irish Bank robbers in Jimmy The Weeds Bio Book
Surely the guards would have said or been asked about Irish accents 🤷🏻..
@@bertbaxter72 If u giving instructions in one word orders it easy to sound like u Yorkshire or any place you choose not rocket science’s.
@@spudhead1161 Ok but it was done by an Irish crew decades ago.
Loving the archival footage & background music. You definitely have a gift for narration!
Wow, thank you!
It could've been British military but this has the hallmark of Irish paramilitaries. The Official and Provisional wings of the IRA , even loyalists on occasions , carried out jobs similar to this on a regular basis in the 70's and 80's. That the cops never picked up any loose talk would suggest a highly efficient and security conscious group carried this out , not your bang average criminal gang.
Plenty of British firms was doing this in the 70s 80s
They are English, did you not hear the Accents? One was west Midlands
@@spudhead1161 Quite few few out of South East London!
You will be suprised how many people will do a blag
Black slicked back hair and the “West Midlands accent” definitely sounds like an Irish guy covering his accent, or having his accent misinterpreted.
Didn't know they employed primary school kids to draw descriptions 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know it, the one looks like Beavis
The guy with the moustache looked like 70’s Vegas Elvis when they took it off.
@@JMc.D 🤣
@@CuriosSpirituallol I was thinking the same
Such a good format for a YT video. This is the second one of yours I've watched now.
Glad you enjoyed it!, Thanks
Amazing channel. Love the narration, archival footage, and the music in the background. Surprised you don’t have 100’s of thousands of subscribers!
Keep it up.
Wow, thank you!
Another cracking vid fella, thank you
thank you
Nice little earner lovely
Copper looks like Frank Sidebottom
Great footage put together expertly old heists like this not seen or heard of nowadays
Background music tops it off
well done 👏
Thank you 🙏
I realy enjoyed that and i use to love crimewatch ......oh and good luck to those squaddies.
glad you enjoyed it,been sitting on it for a bit,thought might not be of interest because no one was convicted
@@CuriosSpiritual well thats what makes it even better as that doesn't seem to happen very often.
No one was hurt I suppose.
@@R8V10 no bit shaken i suppose
@R8V10 this, is what makes me think the narrator had it down.
The guy knew he was dying, he set up his kid, for life. Nobody got hurt. A bit different to the IRA, who RELISHED causing our military pain & suffering.
This was a military-style planned op, of that im 110% sure. Bit shaken, but crucially still alive.
They certainly found a good use for the double bumper on the Bedford KM!! The photo fit of the man with the moustache could've been any robber from the 70's in the Sweeney!! Also never forget that crime watch phone number as they used the old swop shop number, after it closed in 82, program which my sisters loved I hated.
@6:19 The Detective has the best BBC comb over I've ever seen until @6:30 when the cameraman totally blows his cover .........
He blew his own comb over 😂😂
He blew his own comb over 😂😂
£454.000 in used notes 😮 not bad for a days work between 3 people.
You've got to give them credit,they put the hours and graft in and i don't mean the police
I robbed a lorry delivering a load of glue once.. I came to a sticky end thou
😃
My taxi driver friends dad was a 1980’s bank robber and his son has been set up for life with a property rental business, pub and taxi. He is also a well liked councillor, if only people knew. He doesn’t know I know about his father.
Ex SAS lads could have a hand in this.
Looks military.
Im addicted to this channel , love the vintage crime watch clips
Thank you,the Crimewatch ones are the hardest to research
Police Forces still didn't have computers or cell-phones back in '84. All the intelligence was hand written on small cards in filing cabinets. Its no wonder this went unsolved.
No cctv no one with mobile phones too easy
I remember when I was a kid around 81 ,jewellers windows where paper thin and they didn't put the gear in a safe, problem was not a lot of people in the 70,s early 80,s had dough so if you where spotted in nice clothes or flashing cash you where suspected straight away, not spending the money was harder than robbing it
Certainly had two way radios taxis did
nearly got that psychopath in Brighton. So close.
Brilliant as always. Thankyou.
Thank you
Strange the trusted buying a lorry from an auction and yet stole another, The auction lorry could have failed on the day too
Less heat in a non stolen lorry, they certainly knew what they were doing.
One of the robbers was a mechanic
They bought both lorries at auction, purple one was just stored at a truck park for a week
A excellent story....well done
Thank you! 🙂
I saw your video about Danny Dyke, a big name in Swansea scene back in the day.
I instantly subbed, and am now binging your content.
Well done, mate. Great job.
That is one fine looking comb-over, Barrie.
(Stoned thought 😂) This may sound stupid and is probably able to be disproven, but during the reenactment bit i was thinking that sketch of the guy with the mustache looked kinda like John McAleese (SAS hero). Then as the video goes on to say about it being possible ex military suspects, i kinda laughed n thought 'well if youd bet on anyone to plan n pull this off it would probably be some SF dudes'.
That is a proper tash, organised and with no violence or threats or insults.
Brilliant....
What a combover!!
Good on them 😊😊😊
Good luck to them payed off nicely
My Hometown Telford ❤️
Good luck to em
Have you covered the Vauxhall Astra bank robberies in the nineties?flying squad caught them raiding a Lloyd’s band in North Harrow!
Great stuff.👍
I wished I was up and running in these times I would be rich
I know, I would have loved it, no cameras or helicopter's and slow police cars, I'd have been a multi millionaire
Or jail
Lads I have a plan…….😉
@@BleachDemon99I hope it involves a Time Machine !
For a crime like that back then, looking at 4yr do that now 19+
Best channel ever can we have a playlist for older crime story's plzzz :)
Thank you, the crime stories I got going from 1900s what timeline was you thinking and whats the cut off year
@@CuriosSpiritual difficult to say i think you probably better at making i do like the older one's tbh
@@CharlieEdward25 give me a few days to set up a playlist whats your start and cut off year
Brilliant video, recently subscribed, really enjoying your content.
Old school robbery. No chance getting in the van that easy nowadays suspect looks ill 😅😅maybe a smack head rattling 😅
Remember this on crime watch

Different level.
Zapata moustache? Definitely ex S.A.S.
A lot of money at the time, bet it was an inside job
Another great story, I used to love how paranoid crimewatch made me feel, they need to bring it back, the day time one is a bit Mickey Mouse I think
I agree , it lost the brutal edge
And Remember! ............................Don't have nightmares
Memory unlocked.
Good 👍 video good 👍 luck with your channel mate
thank you mate
Nice one 👍 👍
Love this style of old vid
Great video mate, and the story would make a good film even
Definitely! it needs a movie
@@CuriosSpiritual Ive got a good story for you that no one has ever done, in the mid 90s their was about 6 murders in a couple years in Leeds a gang war where no one got caught, one shoit on a roundabout two dumped in a car one in a hospital car park etc, one shot himself by accident and died. type in google craig mirfield and clifton bryan most of the old news bits are still up and you'll piece it together from their mate.
Got it , I will check it out thank you
Classic sweep-through comb over hair on the crimewatch gadgy.
I was lost after that part.
Great video pal , Story told really well
Good video upload enjoyed watching it 👍
Back in the Day.... before cellphone tracking, Dashcams, CCTV, ANPR.
Could not do it now.
And by 2030.... it's all digital.
So, Drug-trafficking and all cash-based Crimes will become redundant.
I agree with everything but the last point. Crypto's already made it's mark there with the dark-web.
@@BuckyOhYeahTo refine that point....Crypto is an excellent way to move proceeds and hide nefarious financials, BUT.....only for top-level INSIDERS.
Remember, all electronic transfers are monitored. There is no place to hide for the little guys. Bitcoin has always been Intel, from the start.
@user-eh3zv1ex5o I kinda agree... in that; being a distributed ledger, its far, far, FAR, more opaque in the fact the transaction logs are on every other person's 'crypto circle' ledger. And I agree, that top-level actors make best use of it. However, I know the majority of low denomination transactions are generally done by those needing to do so remotely, and without going through regulated financial institutions. I.e. for crime in most cases. I'd suspect if the world (or even a single country) were to go cashless, this would be more prevelant in said situations.
Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of cashless causing criminal funding problems, I just can't see that being the case. The amount of work that goes into laundering cash would simply be offset to another way.
I fully get your point though :)
@@BuckyOhYeah I believe that the Criminal world, in the digital age will be monopolised by 2030(greed, the ultimate incentive)....all smaller players will be like deer in the headlights.
==
eg: Encrochat, the go-to App of the independent crims in the UK, has been exposed as a leading Police tool in the UK....the Criminals did not have a clue.
touts out !!
Great this wish it was still this easy 🆘$$
Did they just give complete bullsh!t details at the auctions?
Never even needed drivers license or insurance or tax
7:44 - Who knew Andre the Giant was into this kind of criminality?
I’m going more Captain Pugwash
Its usually a case of follow the money, its a mystery, you would certainly have thought those involved would be showing greatly increased wealth sooner or later.
No point doing it otherwise
That is definitely a mexican. I think it's EL Chapo tbh
Lets go champ
6.16 classic comb over
I live in Leeds there’s a guy with blue Bedford van up my street
U from seacroft
I’m selling my ep3 type r btw
It wasn't carried out by crooks? give your head a wobble. Good job lads.
typical british 1980s bravado- put more than 3 sequence of events together and its called "expert military precision " 😂😂😂♥️♥️♥️♥️
you mean going to an auction, buying a lorry then parking a lorry?
@@CuriosSpiritual Absolutely ! people blame the gung ho atmosphere after the falklands victory, but i believe Torville &Dean have a lot to answer for.
It's common knowledge it was men from Leeds involved and Middlesbrough the same man who organized the crime did the same again for another robbery which was committed years later by another team in Lancashire which was also on crime watch
What a score.
Can't they study this guy's squad members ?
I'd have thought this, with all the resources available to P.Is, this would have been solved long ago.
But regardless, this, I also spotted, was planned with military precision. Absolutley incredible, that nothing came of this - still to this day.
Great channel and great uploads liked and subscribed 👍
Thank you, stick with me
They had these haircuts so they could shave it and not be recognised again maybe
really good watch
thank you
This battering ram few jobs in 80s down south in Ireland.
We need information said d/s Perry combover.
Thanks for the update on the quip.
Cheers Bob 🙂.
Speculate to accumulate
Great watch 🙏
Thank you
Uncle Bill always was a bit of a wild card
I wish I lived in the 80s/90s 😄 I would be a rich man
Fkn brilliant the 1st wan😂
All too tidy all convenient
"Tax free ?" 😅😊😅
still no one claimed it
😊😊😊😊❤❤
Why weren't the shotguns sawn?
maybe they were their own,or like lock Stock they say they look scary with the barrel
@@CuriosSpiritual Gary: Sh0tguns? What, like guns that fire shot?
Barry the Baptist: '''Oh, you must be the brains of the operation. Yes, guns that fire shot”
7:45 It’s Elvis!
👌
Even crimewatch gave up on crime 😅
and I gave up on Crimewatch in 1993 never the same,
