Great Drama!

Another great British drama which was based on a true story. A gripping plot and interesting story line makes this a great drama to watch, especially if you are going to rob the Bank Of England! :-) .I hope ITV will keep making such great dramas of this caliber!

Well done! 10/10 definitely well deserved!
