Summary
Chris Benson looks up to his older brother. In fact, everyone looks up to Chris’ older brother. Most have no choice when they're lying on their stomachs in the middle of Barclays bank. But when Gavin Benson gets sent down for 15 years, the somewhat unprofessional trio of Chris, Sid and Vince are left without a ringleader. As if Chris hasn't got enough problems, his adulterous partner Debbie is spending money faster than he can steal it, his sexually frustrated sister-in-law needs a man about the house and the Neighbourhood Watch Scheme want to sign him up for a tour of duty.
With more cock-ups than hold-ups, The Bank Robber Diaries is every bit as hilarious and wickedly un-PC as Danny King's best-selling debut, The Burglar Diaries, and guaranteed to leave you laughing all the way to the bank.

The fantastic Danny King
If you are new to Danny King you are in for a fantastic story. Once you have heard this book you will be searching for more of his books the Diary of range the hitman diaries the more people he has to kill the more you start to feel sorry for him. After you have listened to this one go to the Diary of a Burglar next as you won’t be able to the stop listening it is one of the funniest books I have ever
Listened to

Great fun and surprisingly insightful
If you liked the humour in Lock, Stock or In Bruges, this is definitely worth a listen. It takes a lot of skill to make you empathise with a semi-psychopath, but this book manages it nicely. The diary format keeps it interesting and makes for easy listening. The performance really brought the characters to life and made you love/hate them, as appropriate.

Totally Wrong Actor For The Book
Love the book, hate the reading, actor very unconvincing as a hardened bank robber. Disappointing.
