Description

From BAFTA-winning screenwriter Jeff Pope, this gripping thriller tells the inside story of one of the most spectacular crimes of the last decade – the Hatton Garden heist. Over one Easter weekend, millions of pounds worth of jewels and cash were stolen from a high-security vault in the heart of Londons world famous diamond district. Over four tension-fuelled episodes, Hatton Garden plunges viewers into the action as this daring, meticulously planned heist unfolds. Following the destinies of the perpetrators, and the rivalries that emerged as they squabbled over the spoils, it shows how getting into the vault was only half the job – getting away with it was even more complex. The series depicts the devastating impact on the victims of the heist – many were small family businesses that lost everything. But by simultaneously tracking the complex police operation that closed in on the gang, we see exactly how this audacious, headline-grabbing crime ultimately unravelled.
