The Last Drop
Synopsis
In a daring attempt to end the war by Christmas, the British High Command hatch an extraordinary plan - Operation Market Garden. 35,000 troops are dropped behind enemy lines in German-occupied Holland. In the midst of the largest airborne invasion in history, one small unit of men, codenamed 'Matchbox', has its own hidden agenda. When Matchbox are shot down short of their landing zone, the odds of their success seem hopeless. Seven very different British soldiers find themselves separated from the Allied invasion, on a collision course with three renegade German soldiers who want to lay claim to the hoard.

Spivs
Director: Colin Teague
Year: 2004
In this cool, but surprisingly emotional, gangster flick, Jack (Ken Stott - Fever Pitch, Shallow Grave) is a true gentleman and a class act of the short con game. With his young protégé, the charmingly streetwise Steve (Nick Moran - Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, The Musketeer) alongside the sharp and sexy Jenny (Kate Ashfield - The War Zone, Late Night Shopping), and the 'bloody hopeless' Goat (Dominic Monaghan - The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), he runs a formidable team of quick-witted and successful con artists. Keeping the team on track and making sure Steve is focussed on the play (not on Jenny's foxy good looks) is the only trouble for Jack - until a simple heist goes wrong and they are lumbered with a truck full of illegal immigrants destined for the sex trade. While most of them scarper, two of them, a scruffy 10-year-old girl and her frightened young brother, are left in Jack's reluctant charge. But then the furious smuggler sets out on a bloody vendetta, determined to wreak revenge for the loss of his precious cargo.
