  • compo in his real voice?

  • ah yes, if this film was done today, it would little shit kid in a hoodie high on drink & drugs, saying 'I did it to get my taxes back...innit'.

  • They were very well-dressed car thieves in those days...a tie, for goodness' sake!

    You can tell that was a long time ago, how did he get parking so close to the ground?

    And I remember bak then people left their cars unlocked, but with the keys in as well??

  • The younger voice sounds like Peter Denyer ( best known from Please Sir & playing "Ralph" in Dear John ).

  • This can be seen in the very 1st episode of Life On Mars on an old black n white portable in the station ;D

  • So unrealistic. No one opens a capri door on their first try.

  • What kind of idiot would go to a football match and leave their car unlocked? He deserved to have it stolen.

  • Never mind that shit... "Watch out Beadles about"..

  • The thief is the six million dollar man judging from the sound effects.

  • sounds like Reg Varney! Was it his cortina lol?

  • one of them sounded a little like George Cole aka Artur Daley

  • ok couple of things here , i never knew frank bough was a car thief ,and did anyone ever rent those arches in london who wasnt nicking motors ? crafty villians :)

  • he was well dodgy bit of a pedo id say

  • Sounds priceless that one! I must have a look for it.

  • He would not have cared, thieves are a bunch of pirates, they'll steal anything.

  • What about the one telling you to lock up bike and the very camp gentleman telling the old bill "I'd rather not say what's in the saddlebag,it's personal"Absolute classic!

  • I liked the one with the two old biddies pushing a trolley in the supermarket when she realises someone's half-inched her purse and she exclaims"ooh,me purse"

  • I can remember this from when it was first shown, as I was around eight years old at the time. Out of interest, does anybody have any other "Watch Out!" PIF's?
