Episode 5 Episodio 5

Could Tricky Dicky, aka master thief Richard Taylor, be losing his edge? To test out its defences, Richard targets a London music shop that stocks enough mega-bucks guitars to keep ZZ Top on the road for another 50 years. The store has been hit by some magicians of the criminal world, including one thief who made a guitar disappear underneath a magic mac. Richard and his accomplice do not make such an easy getaway – in fact they are lucky to get out without getting nicked! Also this week, a garden centre in Biggleswade, is hit by the team. The centre is losing an estimated 2,419.26€ a year as shoplifters steal shed loads of gear. Two men managed to throw some strimmers and pitchforks over the fence and some girls raided the gift shop – all of them walking out scot free. The staff do not see Richard or his accomplices coming and he performs a supermarket sweep, filling a basket before swanning out of the entrance and handing the contents over to his friend before heading back in for more. It seems that the manager would rather tend to the plants than take on the crooks, and he might be sorry that he asked for help when Richard challenges him to get inside the thieves' mindset and go on a shoplifting spree of his own.To keep everything rosy, PC Will Davies turns up with some clever new gizmos to help the staff on the shop floor gear up to take on the shoplifters.

Episode 6 Episodio 6

Reformed thief Richard Taylor and serving copper Will Davies have seen their fair share of devious thieves over the course of the series, but they hope that they have taught shopkeepers what to watch out for and how best to tackle the people who are stealing their profits. This week they are in Liverpool, where a family-run chain of chemists is being hit by shoplifters who take everything from hair dye to condoms. Staff are too busy mixing prescriptions to notice – as one woman fills her shopping bag, it takes a beady eyed customer to expose her. The owner is a friendly pharmacist who puts customer care first, and shameless Scousers are taking full advantage along with heaps of stock. Tricky Dicky’s dastardly scam is to go into the chemist in a wheelchair and fill a tailor-made blanket with over 60.48€ worth of gear. He then sends in a reformed thief to pull the latest scams on the other shops in the chain, including variations on the old-school price-tag swap and the crafty receipt scam. Copper Will Davies thinks that the chemists’ regulars could be co-opted to be the pharmacist’s eyes and ears, but grassing on people is a big ask for the locals. Next the crime-fighting duo visit a vast pet shop in the outskirts of Leeds which is falling foul of the thieves’ latest craze – stealing live pets to sell on the black market. Everything from fluffy kittens to pythons are considered fair game. Richard demonstrates how it is done when he leaves the shop with a terrapin in a takeaway cup, while Will tackles preventative measures, going beyond the usual security toolkit to come up with a way of stopping the super furry animals going walkies. As Richard and Will come to the end of their journey, have the UK’s shopkeepers learned anything from them? Or will the battle between the thieves and the retail industry continue?
