Series telling the stories of some of the UK's oddest offences, including how two drunk Dubliners stole a trawler to get back to Ireland after missing the last ferry from Holyhead.
This debut episode includes the tale of two drunk Dubliners who stole a trawler to get back to Ireland after missing the last ferry home from Holyhead; the case of a man whose day trip from Wales to Skegness involved a drink and drug-fuelled raid on a sex shop, which culminated in him stealing a mannequin after he took a liking to the French maid's outfit it was wearing; and how the theft of a giant tortoise from a Cornish pet sanctuary sparked a nationwide media campaign.
