Involuntarily-retired Colonel Hyde recruits seven other dissatisfied ex-servicemen for a special project. Each of the men has a skeleton in the cupboard, is short of money, and is a service-trained expert in his field. The job is a bank robbery, and military discipline and planning are imposed by Hyde and second-in-command Race on the team, although civilian irritations do start getting in the way.

A solid British crime caper/light comedy that the English used to be so damn good at making. Part of the Criterion Eclipse series, this set celebrating the works of Director Basil Dearden. I intend to visit more discs from the set via Netflix over the year.
Some BS stuff that should get stripped out (after this comment).
