Must See TV Program 2

Steve916 · 18th December 2013, 08:15

'The Great Train Robbery'
Tonight 8pm BBC1
The Robbers View tonight, with a coppers view part 2 tomorrow.
Quite ironic timing considering Mr Biggs died this morning.

Just watched them talking about it on the BBC Breakfast news, looks like a really good watch.
Remarkable timing as you say, just like the Mandela film being released just as he dies!

Just said exactly the same thing about Mandela too.

I listened to a review of this on the radio yesterday, sounds very good. Interestingly it was written by the same guy who wrote "Broadchurch"

That bodes well then, I thought Broadchurch was one of the best programmes on tv this year

My thoughts entirely. From the radio review it sounds like he's done his research. Quite an interesting way of doing it over two episodes showing both points of view.

As a youngster I used to see Buster Edwards on his flower stall outside Waterloo. Until recently (well 10 years ago) the stall was still there being run by a relative.
