Tim’s cunning plan was to rob the museum of a small, priceless Rodin sculpture. A ‘living statue’ artist; he would become a Roman senator. Using the museum toilet to make up, he emerged just before closing time, shuffling surreptitiously into the room with the Rodin. No-one was there to notice.

It all went wrong as Tim edged over to the Rodin. The toga he would secrete the stolen piece in was long and voluminous. He edged, caught his foot in the toga, and fell, knocking the plinth. It was all over when he got a bust in the mouth.
