The Gold is a true crime story getting the dramatisation treatment by the BBC which will air Sunday nights this winter in the place of Happy Valley, which ended earlier in February. Happy Valley ran for six, painfully short, weeks, but how long does The Gold run for?
Inspired by extensive research and interviews with some of those involved in the events, The Gold is a pulsating dramatisation which 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.
It stars Downton Abbey's Hugh Bonneville, Dominic Cooper from Marvel's Captain America and Mamma Mia, Jack Lowden of Slow Horses and Sanditon's Charlotte Spencer. You can see more on the brilliant cast, here.
