About the program

The Gold is inspired by the true story of the 1983 Brink’s-Mat robbery that took place in London and stars Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses), Dominic Cooper (Mamma Mia!), Tom Cullen (Downton Abbey), Charlotte Spencer (Sanditon) and Emun Elliott (Guilt). In 1983, armed men broke into the Brink’s-Mat security depot near London’s Heathrow Airport and inadvertently stumbled across gold bullion worth £26m. What started as a typical armed robbery became the biggest theft in world history at the time.
