Brinks-Mat robbery show features fictional dodgy Manx lawyer

Joshua McGuire plays Manx lawyer Douglas Baxter

A second series of a BBC drama will follow the money from one of the UK's biggest ever robberies as it's laundered through the Isle of Man.

The Gold tells the story of 1983's Brinks-Mat gold robbery at Heathrow Airport.

The second season of the show began last night and features key figures in the crime, including a fictional Manx-based lawyer called Douglas Baxter - who show creators say is a composite of real people.

The second episode will be released tomorrow, although the full season is already available on iPlayer.
