BUNGLING thieves escaped with £100,000 worth of useless DVDs after stealing 20,000 discs from a lorry.

The theft occurred in Dartford close to the M25 at around 10pm while the driver was asleep in his lorry at the side of the road.

The lorry's side was slashed open and the DVDs of film Blade 2 were taken the driver did not realise what had happened until morning.

But what the thieves may not have realised is the discs do not contain the feature film, but instead a number of extras such as deleted scenes and theatrical trailers.
