Do remember when Aleks the jewellers got held up?

It was when they had a small shop before it was redeveloped into where Joules and DocMartens is.
Basically it was held up by some black guys and for the re-enactment Norfolk Police couldn’t get any black actors or staff to do it, so 2 or 3 white guys blacked-up for it! I remember seeing it on telly, think it was Crimestoppers.
