synopsis
The title of the 60-minute British programmer Ambush in Leopard Street tells the whole story. Retired thief James Kenney comes out of mothballs for one last big heist. The plan is to bushwack a diamond shipment as the truck tools its way down Leopard Street. Since the truck is heavily guarded, it is necessary for Kenney to recruit a larger gang of henchmen than usual. The "old pros" perform efficiently, but the hotheaded newcomers gum up the works.
