What lies beyond Happy Valley? Nothing but an aching gap on Sunday nights looms – in February! Well, don’t despair because there’s a treat coming up on its tail. The Gold is a real audience-pleaser, a classic, classy British crime drama with a big and brilliant cast.
It’s based on the largest heist in world history, the Brink’s-Mat robbery at Heathrow airport in 1983, in which a team of six armed robbers attempted to steal £1 million in foreign currency and ended up coming away with £26 million in gold bullion. Oops!
