The Gold, a critically acclaimed crime drama inspired by the true story of one of the largest robberies in British history, will air on MASTERPIECE on PBS. A second season, which delves into the decades-long aftermath of the historic crime, will also air on MASTERPIECE. Produced by Tannadice Pictures and Objective Fiction, part of Objective Media, for BBC , The Gold is the latest All3Media International drama secured by MASTERPIECE, adding to titles such as All Creatures Great and Small, Van der Valk, Mrs. Wilson, Baptiste and Annika.

Hugh Bonneville as Brian Boyce

The first season of The Gold tells the story of the 1983 Brink’s-Mat robbery. On the 26th November 1983, six 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 Old Kent Road armed robbery’ according to detectives at the time, became a seminal event in British criminal history, remarkable not only for the scale of the theft, at the time the biggest in world history, but for its wider legacy. The disposal of the bullion led to a vast international money laundering operation, provided the dirty money that helped fuel the London Docklands property boom, united blue and white collar criminals, and left controversy and murder in its wake.  Inspired by extensive research and interviews with some of those involved in the events, The Gold is a pulsating dramatization that takes a journey into a 1980s world awash with cheap money and loosened morals to tell this extraordinary and epic story for the first time in its entirety.

Following the conviction of some of those involved in the theft and handling of the Brink’s-Mat gold, the police realized that those criminals only ever had half of it. Season Two explores what happened to the other half, and the criminal fortune it created. As the police investigation continues, it becomes a tense, high-stakes journey into international money laundering and organised crime, while the police embark on dramatic manhunts as they desperately try to solve the longest and most expensive investigation in the history of the Metropolitan Police.

The Gold features a star-studded cast including Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey, Paddington in Peru), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses), Dominic Cooper (The Devil’s Double), Charlotte Spencer (The Duke), Emun Elliott (Guilt), Tom Cullen (Becoming Elizabeth), Stefanie Martini (The Last Kingdom) and Amanda Drew (Ellis). Season One is directed by Academy Award®-winning Aneil Karia (The Long Goodbye) and Lawrence Gough (The Last Bus), and season two by Patrick Harkins (Tin Star, Guilt).

Susanne Simpson, MASTERPIECE’s Head of Scripted Content and Executive Producer commented “MASTERPIECE is thrilled to be bringing Neil Forsyth’s exceptional storytelling to our viewers with seasons one and two of The Gold .We cannot wait to showcase this thrilling tale of an epic real-life heist, featuring a stellar cast led by Hugh Bonneville, Jack Lowden, Dominic Cooper, Tom Cullen, Charlotte Spencer, and Emun Elliott.”

Sally Habbershaw, EVP Americas at All3Media International, added, “It’s fantastic to see North America embracing this genuinely fascinating drama inspired by true events. With its stylish narrative, outstanding on-screen performances, and acclaimed creative team, The Gold brings this audacious heist vividly to life, revealing how the proceeds of the crime filtered through all layers of society, with far-reaching and often tragic consequences. The Gold has already proved a hit with viewers and critics alike in the UK, and we’re confident the first season and the highly anticipated second season will be just as popular on the global stage.”

The Gold is written by Neil Forsyth (Guilt; Eric, Ernie & Me) and is produced by Tannadice Pictures, the joint venture between Neil Forsyth and Objective Fiction, part of Objective Media Group, an All3Media Company.
