The Graying Thieves Who Nearly Got Away With a Record Heist in London: The operation, meticulously plotted — with the help, the police would later find out, of the book “Forensics for Dummies” — was finally set in motion the Thursday before Easter this year, as Brian Reader, the ruddy-faced ringleader whom the others called “the Master,” boarded the No. 96 bus near his home in Dartford, Kent.

And the inevitable movie adaptation has tailor-made roles for Michael Caine, Ian McLellan, Terrence Stamp, and Donald Sutherland.

I'm *almost* sorry they got caught.

Deb, you forgot Sean Connery.
