After suspecting that irregular betting patterns had taken place at a greyhound stadium, bookmaker Ronald Charles refused to pay out on a winning betting slip worth over £200,000. A group of men have subsequently been accused of having conspired to cheat the on-track Tote betting system, and Mr Charles, out of thousands of pounds. Barry Deeley leads the prosecution in what is a confusing case for those not familiar with betting procedures.

Dog track cashier Doreen Tring explains how the accused, Bill Broad was blocking the window so nobody else could place a bet. Punter Mr. Smith tells confirms he was unable to place a bet anywhere because men had blocked the way.

Bill Broad tells the court that Oakmoor was a minor betting scam, to get even with the bookie but too many people came to help. He denies that he didn't stop people from betting nor know why twenty people turned up to help him out.
