There is not quite enough story – there’s a lot of Sam staring into mirrors as she cleans them, and it takes her and Jess for ever in TV terms to do very little preparation for their sort-of heist, when it could have borne a much greater weight of fun-and-not-wholly-plausible-IRL detail, in accordance with the long-proved truism that the viewing public loves “how-tos” – but, overall, this is the kind of solid, well-made nonsense that is such a rare and precious joy.

The script is the first by Mark Marlow. It’s not perfect, but Smith is never less than watchable. And after this first episode the temptation for another flutter may be hard to resist.

You can’t help rooting for them in the absurd scene where Sam balances on a desk to plants a microphone in the ceiling of the insider dealer’s office and cheering as their £50 investment blooms into £500.
