The Gold Episode 2’s release date is here. The post will include everything from the streaming guide of this show, along with the air date of The Gold Episode 2 and spoilers.
The Gold’s official summary states: “On November 26, 1983, six armed guys broke into the Brink’s-Mat security facility close to London’s Heathrow Airport and unintentionally discovered physical Gold worth £26 million.
“What began as a standard Old Kent Street armed robbery,’ in the words of the detectives at the time, evolved into a pivotal moment in the British criminal past, notable not only for the size of the crime, which was at the time the largest in history but also for its broader ramifications.
The removal of the bullion “combined blue collar and white-collar criminals, gave birth to massive international money laundering, funded the London Docklands real estate boom with illicit money, and left debate and death in its wake.”

What will be the premise of The Gold?
The Gold is set to chronicle the tale of the famed Brink’s-Mat robbery and is based on an in-depth survey and discussion with several of those involved. Six armed criminals set out on November 26, 1983, to do “a conventional Old Kent Highway armed robbery.”
However, they discovered physical Gold worth £26 million when they smashed into the Brink’s-Mat security facility close to Heathrow Airport. Thanks to a security officer who was complicit in the theft, the robbers could enter the warehouse.
Once there, they doused the employees in gasoline and threatened them with a box of matches if they did not divulge the password to the vault. The theft went down in the British criminal past as a key moment, and its effects were felt far and wide.
Large-scale international laundering was born due to the sale of gold bullion, and the illicit profits fueled the real estate boom in London Dockland. It brought together both blue-collar and white-collar crooks and set off a series of incidents that resulted in murder.
