group women who plot to steal money from the mint?

[stevenscott]

Can anyone remember this drama or film about a group of women who work in a Mint,they think of a plan to steal money,i think they sneak it out under there clothing,my memory is vague but i think it was shown on ITV,it can't be more than 8 year old,can anyone remember the name of this drama or film,many thanks.     Did they not smuggle it out at the end of there shift?

I remember this, didn't it end up on an allotment, my hubby thinks that Penelope Wilton was in, but I am not convinced

Found it, it was called Hot Money it was 2001. check out IMdb for more details - sorry the link doesn't seem to work

It was supposed to be based on a true story and Paul Merton's ex-wife (is her name Caroline Quentin or something?) was in it.

It was a drama on ITV and I am sure it was only about a year or so ago.

It wasn't as long ago as 8 years but it starred Caroline Quentin - they smuggled it out but I think they got caught if I remember right

Looked it up - it was made 3 years ago so would probably have been on tv later as it was more film-like

I wasn't that keen on it I remember - though I think Caroline Quentin is brill - I love her in Blue murder and Johnathon Creek

That's the link - it was called red hot
