EXCLUSIVE: The BBC and Paramount+ have set cast for new drama, The Gold, which quietly began filming this month in London, we can reveal.Starring will be Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey), Jack Lowden (Small Axe: Mangrove), Dominic Cooper (The Preacher), Charlotte Spencer (Cinderella), Tom Cullen (Black Mirror), Emun Elliot (Old), Sean Harris (Mission: Impossible), Ellora Torchia (Midsommar) and Stefanie Martini (The Last Kingdom).Inspired by the true story of the UK’s iconic Brink’s-Mat robbery and the decades-long chain of events that followed, The Gold dramatizes the country’s ‘crime of the Century’ across six episodes for BBC One and Paramount+ internationally.Written by Neil Forsyth (Guilt), we can also reveal that the project will be directed by recent Oscar winner Aneil Karia (The Long Goodbye) along with Lawrence Gough (Misfits).Set on the 26th  November 1983, the series will chart how six armed men broke into the Brink’s-Mat security depot near London’s Heathrow Airport, and inadvertently stumbled across gold bullion worth £26M.
