Funny British comedy about an inept Parole Officer who ends up robbing a bank to get evidence against a corrupt policeman. The main character is Simon, played by Steve Coogan, who has done a lot of work in television as Pauline Calf, but not so far as I know a feature film as her.
Coogan enlists the help of some of his former "clients" to carry out the bank job. They are rounding up some old acquaintances to rob a bank; there is a fleeting overtone of Hunting Venus in this, especially as Ben Miller is one of the "gang".
They have one last person to find, Victor. Simon is going on to the others about how Victor is a master of disguises -- "Sometimes even I don't recognise him.". They knock on the door. A woman answers it. Long pause.
Simon: "..... er .... Victor?"
