In 1961, Kempton Bunton (Jim Broadbent), a 60 year old taxi driver, stole Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London. It was the first (and remains the only) theft in the Gallery's history. Kempton sent ransom notes saying that he would return the painting on condition that the government invested more in care for the elderly - he had long campaigned for pensioners to receive free television.

The only truth was that he was a good man, determined to change the world and save his marriage - how and why he used the Duke to achieve that is a wonderfully uplifting tale.

One of the most famous blunders in military history, which sent the Light Brigade to its doom at the Crimea, provides the climax to a passionately felt and provocative British film. Tony Richardson creates a sweeping panorama of mid-Victorian England in all its complacency and callousness, and a biting screenplay by Charles Wood brings wit as well as anger to dramatising the gulf between the leaders and the led. The film affords memorable roles for Trevor Howard and John Gielgud as the incompetent Lords Cardigan and Raglan who drive the men to their death, and stars David Hemmings at the height of his career.
