The Great Train Robbery

AudienceAudience: 7.1

In August 1963, Britain is shaken when a mail train is stopped and robbed of millions. This two-part miniseries follows the criminals as they plan and carry out the audacious raid, then shifts to the determined police investigation that tracks the gang and brings the case toward justice.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy true-crime dramas, carefully planned heists, and British police investigations; Not for you if you need fast pacing, flawless historical detail, or consistently gripping storytelling.
