Holdwell's is a manufacturer of safes, their recent model, the 801 is believed to be their best yet, totally impregnable, so confident are they in their product, they set a challenge. Sam 'The Touch' Morrissey is the Country's finest safe cracker, a reformed character, who's served his time for his extensive safe breaking. A television show is put on to showcase 'The Holdwell Challenge,' where the public can witness Sam's many skills. If he breaks in there's £25,000 in cash waiting for him.
Tales of the Unexpected seemed to attract the very best of acting talent, John Mills is without a doubt one of my all time favourite actors, a true great, he's just wonderful in the lead as Sam.
The soft hearted will love the ending!
It's a really clever story, the back story with the money needed to save the house is a nice touch too. Very memorable, I wouldn't say it's a classic, but it's still a cracker. 8/10
