# The Robbers - Parental Guide This family comedy features mild physical humor around a burglary but contains no violence, profanity, or scary content. The plot involves an adult character dishonestly inflating an insurance claim, which may warrant a brief discussion about honesty. Generally appropriate for children, though best suited for those old enough to appreciate British family comedy humor.

It's Boxing Day and already Karen is making New Year resolutions - chiefly for others - and the family have been burgled,though selectively,causing Sue to cheat on the insurance claim. Sue and Jake go to collect Grandad from the retirement home where he now lives,only to find he has sloped off to the pub again with Scots mate Mac. Sue ends up asking Mac back for dinner though his thick accent creates a language barrier for Karen. Sue's divorced friend Jane is also invited and though the children fail to appreciate her present for them,a goat donated to Oxfam,Pete feels sorry for her and is glad that the Brockmans have given a Christmas to lonely strangers - until a W.P.C. turns up with another old boy who has gone walkabout.
