Summary

This week, Iain looks at a Parisian prison escape with more flair than Celine Dion singing on the Eiffel Tower.

In 1986, Michel Vaujour made one of the most daring prison escapes in French history. One that he and his wife Nadine had been carefully planning for almost three years. But can this couple (and their two children!) stay hidden? Or will their penchant for outlandish criminal escapades come back to bite them?
