Plot summary
Dylan and Jez are orphans who meet as adults and find they share a childhood ambition: to live in a stately home. They settle in a disused gas holder, keep their spending to a minimum, and cheat the upper classes out of their money toward the two million pounds such a house would cost. Their latest scam needs a typist, so they hire Georgie, a medical student who can type, as their secretary, and she does not know at first what the two men are. They persuade her that they are modern Robin Hoods who rob the wealthy on behalf of the poor.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Shooting Fish (1997)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- The 2001 DVD release of Shooting Fish runs only 99 minutes, down from the original 112, using what is apparently the US cinema version, which removed scenes and dialogue aimed at British audiences, including some references to Margaret Thatcher.
- The gas holder that Dylan and Jez live in in Shooting Fish no longer exists; it stood in Mill Hill East until the early 2000s.
