Written and directed by Sacha Bennett, Tuesday is a fast-moving, London-set heist story in which nothing is what it seems.

By sheer coincidence four experienced criminals, two beautiful bank clerks and one desperate, penniless man nearing retirement decide to rob the same bank on the same day. Two detectives (Kevin McNally and Dylan Brown) must use their interrogative expertise to piece together seemingly unrelated people and clues to determine who really stole the Meidan-i-Noor - an emerald the size of a fist.

Ingeniously plotted and featuring an all-star cast of British talent that includes fast-rising star Ashley Waters (Bullet Boy, Speedracer), the film pulls off a major coup in reuniting Life On Mars co-stars John Simm and Philip Glenister. The duo ditch their TV police personas to feature as the head of a ring of audacious career criminals.
