Great British Bake Off co-host Noel Fielding portrays the dandy highwayman in an irreverent comedy adventure created by Claire Downes, Ian Jarvis and Stuart Lane, who gleefully rewrite 18th-century history. Corrupt lawman Jonathan Wilde (Hugh Bonneville) appoints himself chief thief-taker in an era of highway robberies and daring heists. Dick Turpin (Fielding) is the most famous of these outlaws, famed across Britain for his glorious hair and unabashed charm. Wilde vows to put Turpin behind bars but his prey is a showman of considerable cunning and guile, who is supported by a band of lovable misfits
