On the night of Saturday, 11 September 1971, a gang of thieves tunnelled for 40ft into the vault of Lloyds Bank on Baker Street, central London, cutting through the reinforced concrete floor with a thermic lance. They began digging the tunnel over a period of evenings and weekends from beneath a nearby handbag store they had previously purchased.
