Charlotte Spencer shares personal link to Brink's-Mat scandal from BBC's The Gold


The Gold star Charlotte Spencer has opened up about her own connection to the real-life Brink's-Mat gold robbery, which inspired the second series of the BBC crime drama

Hugh Bonneville and Charlotte Spencer are back on the case as London detectives in the gripping second series of the drama, which draws inspiration from the 1983 heist where a staggering £26 million in gold bullion was nicked from a Heathrow warehouse. Even though it's been over two years since filming the first series, Charlotte, 33, effortlessly slipped back into her role as the collected and unwavering Nicki Jennings who remains on the straight and narrow despite her family's dodgy dealings. The new series ushers in fresh faces like Malpractice's Tom Hughes, Criminal Record's Stephen Campbell Moore, Cheaters' Joshua McGuire and The Witcher's Lorna Brown to spice up the drama.
