It’s been a few years, but The Gold Season 2 is back once more. And with it, Tom Cullen as John Palmer, the career criminal who struck the big time when he became involved with the plan to steal a whole lorry’s worth of gold bullion, diamonds and cash from the Brinks-Mat warehouse near Heathrow.
Season one delved into the true story behind how that happened, and how he got away with it. In season two, Palmer is living it large on the ill-gotten gains of his job. He’s got a villa in Tenerife, and appears to be selling timeshares to British expats – something that may or may not be a scam.
