A peek into the strange world of Hatton Gardens, the UK’s centre for diamonds, gold and jewelry.  Surprisingly warm and a bit kooky in its approach, we get an insight into the various strata of the gold and diamond world.

For this the main job was to avoid the totally obvious generic expectations of music for any programme with ‘geezers’ in the title, whilst still delivering an upbeat and fun score.  I wanted to give a sense of wonderment, in keeping with the film’s approach.  I didn’t want to be too prescriptive with the various characters as they are very well defined already.  There were a couple of fun moments on this, including enhancing an acoustic performance during a proposal on the Southbank into a full-blown romantic pop-rock ballad.
