"Spivs" is a (2004) British comedy-crime drama film directed by Colin Teague, who also cowrote the screenplay along with screenwriters Gary Young, and Mike Loveday. It is the second of three undertakings by Teague and Young, the others being "Shooters" and "The Last Drop," respectively. Incidentally, director Glenn Durfort, who worked with Teague on "Shooters," appears briefly in all three of these films.

Plot summary

Jack, Steve and Goat are East End London "spivs" (British slang for a black marketeer) who spend their days wheeling and dealing whenever and wherever they can. But not until they're landed with the juicy payoff they have been waiting for, involving a shady character who calls himself Villa, do they realize the trouble they've gotten themselves into.
