Scottish star Dougie Henshall says his ITV1 Christmas drama Doors Open is a heist movie of a kind that has gone out of fashion in Britain. Doors Open is the story of three mismatched art thieves, played by Dougie, Stephen Fry and Ken Collard, who decide to stage an audacious art robbery in Edinburgh. The story is based on the novel by bestselling crime writer Ian Rankin. Primeval star Dougie told whatsontv.co.uk: "[It's] a heist movie in the very best tradition of those things, in which we've got three very unlikely thiefs set against the establishment of bankers who've got too many good paintings hidden away in a vault that nobody's going to see and we decide to liberate them for very different reasons..." He added: "For the most part it's a fun, light-hearted kind of caper film, which I've never had the chance to do because we don't do it in this country very much any more, but I had a blast doing it." Doors Open screens at 9pm on ITV1 on Boxing Day. Watch co-stars Dougie and Lenora Crichlow talk about Doors Open:
