52. The Scream Thieves

Laura takes a look at the 1994 theft of Edvard Munch’s most famous painting – ‘The Scream’ – from Norway’s National Gallery. It took two thieves less than fifty seconds to break in through a window and grab the priceless artwork. In response, crime agencies from across the globe came together to organise an elaborate sting operation and return the painting before it was lost forever.
