Description: |
Anthony Valentine stars as the debonair A.J. Raffles who is constantly in demand as a house guest on English country estates at the turn of the century. What his hosts don't realise is that Raffles is also an accomplished jewel thief and safe-cracker. 'The First Step' sees Raffles meeting up with old schoolmate Bunny Manders, with one of the great partnerships of all time being forged. In 'A Costume Piece', Reuben Rosenthall is an unattractive self-made millionaire, making him a natural target for Raffles. In 'The Spoils of Sacrilege', poor Bunny is still a comparative innocent when it comes to expecting the unexpected. 'The Gold Cup' sees Raffles setting out to prove that he is not the thief the police, society and the Criminologists Club are trying to track down. 'Chest of Silver' sees Bunny wishing that Raffles would warn him when he was going to break all the laws in the land - and explain why. |
