Not the sharpest of tools in the box, Bex and his partner, Ollie, get into their fair share of scrapes as they trawl the night looking for open windows and easy money. A lippy raconteur, Bex often shares his thoughts on life, which are as dodgy as his mates, to offer a hilarious insight into the mind of the petty criminal.Adapted for TV by the BBC."King wisely stop short of turning Bex into a simple lovable rogue.
