The Greenhalgh family from Lancashire conned the art world with a series of fakes sold to museums, galleries and collectors all over the globe, made in the
garden shed of their shared council house in suburban Bolton. This highly
acclaimed film uncovers the secret world of the most unlikely art forgers in
history, interviewing the police who uncovered them, the experts they deceived
and their friends and neighbours.
For over 17 years, led by 87-year-old pensioner George, the family
systematically deceived the art world, including dealers, auction houses,
museums and private collectors. Despite having made hundreds of thousands of
pounds from selling dozens of fakes, the family continued to lead a modest
existence, totally cut off from the outside world with only themselves and
their forgeries for company.
While Shaun was busy carving, casting and painting the forgeries, his elderly
father George was the salesman behind the operation. He played the part of the
doddery old man to perfection, fooling the various experts that he came across
into thinking that he had no idea of the value of what he possessed. But the
family had, in fact, carefully researched lost masterpieces in art reference
books from their local libraries, and skilfully assembled stories about the
fakes' provenances that some experts and auction houses believed.
Finally, in November 2005, their cottage industry in art and antiquities began
to unravel when a minor error in an 'ancient' Assyrian tablet his son Shaun had
knocked up in their garden shed was spotted by the British Museum. The police
raided the Greenhalgh family home and discovered a house littered with fakes,
among which were three of Shaun's previous attempts at creating the Amarna
Princess, a statue of Tutankhamun's sister purported to be over 3,000 years
