Dick Turpin plot
It is 1739 and Dick Turpin, a notorious highwayman, returns to England after three years serving in the British army abroad. Dick's parents were taken from their home by Sir John Glutton, a wealthy landowner, and died of starvation. Turpin and Swiftnick decide to avenge his parents by robbing the rich, especially Glutton. Both men now throw themselves like brigands on the rich and give much of their booty to the poor. They become very popular with the people with this. Unfortunately, they can't rest on their laurels, as Captain Spiker and his men launch a merciless pursuit.
