The Gold

Six armed men steal £26m worth of gold from the Brink’s-Mat security depot and set about trying to dispose of the bullion. DCI Brian Boyce sets up a task force to investigate.

The criminals create a system to smelt the Brink’s-Mat gold and sell it back into the market with the profits being laundered. Jennings and Brightwell make a breakthrough in the case.

The task force set up surveillance on Noye and are led to Palmer and more of the suspects. A police raid ends in tragedy in Noye’s garden.

In Tenerife, Palmer learns he is wanted by the police. Cooper and Parry’s plan to move cash across Europe is a success. Noye’s murder trial comes to a dramatic conclusion.

Palmer is finally caught after attempting to escape to Brazil. The police learn that Cooper and Parry have been laundering the Brink’s-Mat millions. Cooper is arrested but Parry escapes.

Some of the criminals are found innocent and others are convicted, but the police realize the gold was split after the robbery. Their work must continue.
