- [Robbers] Get down.
- [Narrator] Six robbers have carried out an armed raid, stealing almost three tons of gold bullion.
(driver laughing) - The largest robbery in world history.
- That's very pretty.
- We're looking for six robbers and three tons of gold.
- That is how England works, love.
That lot have it, and that's what I'm nicking.
- I should take 25%.
(dramatic music) - The only way the gold turns into money is if they manage to sell it back into the market.
- Ready?
- Yeah.
- Yes.
- Yeah.
- Well, then we better get started?
(dramatic music continues) - Money like that will end up a long way from South London in surprising places with surprising people.
- Run.
- Let's go, go.
- From now on we're chasing the interesting ones.
- [Police] Police, step back.
- Every ring, every watch.
If you are looking for the gold, it's all around you.
This will only get faster and faster till one day it's all gone.
(door clanging) (dramatic music continues)
