The Gold is the creation of highly acclaimed writer Neil Forsyth the creative force behind ‘Bob Servant Independent’ and ‘Guilt’. The first series saw Cullen’s Palmer work with Kenneth Noye, played by Jack Lowden, to melt down the stolen gold and launder it in the open market. According to Cullen, viewers can expect a big change in Palmer in the much anticipated second series. In an interview with the BBC ahead of the new series Cullen said: “There’s quite a large leap in terms of John Palmer from series one to series two. “This series follows the second half of the Brink’s-Mat gold and it’s also a story of the consequences faced by several of our key characters across the entire show.
