Synopsis
Maurice Riley (Anthony Head) and Syd Woolsey (Warren Clarke) attempt to re-live their criminal glory days in BBC comedy-drama THE INVISIBLES. After 15 years in 'retirement', enjoying the spoils of their misdeeds on the Costa Del Sol, the boys find money starting to run short and the reality of honest-living rather dull. Against the wishes of Maurice's loyal wife Barbara (Jenny Agutter), they head back to Britain where they team up with the son of their former partner, Hedley (Dean Lennox Kelly). However, after such a long hiatus from the dangerous thrills of a life of crime, the pair realise how outdated they've become. But with the prospect of one last big job, the once-infamous 'Invisibles' decide to show the new generation of thieves how it's done.

5.0 out of 5 stars comedy crime series "New Tricks" style, 14 Jul 2008
By David - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
The Invisibles is a series about two friends Maurice Riley (Anthony Head - Buffy The Vampre Slayer, Doctor Who) and Syd Woolsey (Warren Clarke - Dalziel And Pascoe)who were members of "The Invisibles" the best robbers in town. They are joined by the son of the 3rd Invisible Hedley (Dean Lennox Kelly). Trying to stay on the straight and narrow they are forced to do one "final" job - but things don't go as smoothly as planned.

The cast are excellent and have a good on screen chemistry. Jenny Agutter (Spooks, An American Werewolf In London) is superb as Maurice's wife who is determined that he goes straight. The shows premise is basically "New Tricks" only with ex cons rather than ex coppers and the result is just as entertaining.

The six episodes are presented over two disks. If you enjoyed New Tricks and wan't to try something similar then give this dvd a go. Personally I can't wait for series two.

the story line was a hoot however translated into TV veiwing I found that overacting of a couple of the actors spoilt it for me. Average veiwing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvellous, 11 Feb 2009
By Mr. W. Ivory (IJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a cracking comedy. Really funny with brilliant central performances. I did write the show so obviously I'm biased. On the other hand there's a whole heap of reality rubbish out there so do yourself a favour and watch a show with real actors pretending to be other people. It's a blast!
