    Frankie Fraser said about Kenneth Noye. ' If you found someone on your property lurking around at night, dressed in black with your wife and kids indoors what would you do? The detective was surprised he was found not guilty of murder.

    do you know WHY they had to sneak around ? cos they couldnt get a warrant why were they unable to get a warrant ? Cos some of Noyes mansion isnt owned by him its owned by the MOD its under the 100 year secrecy act of 1945 & you can be jailed ( eve as a copper ) without getting written approval from the home secretary who has no power to overrule law lords . 100 year secrecy act tells me that something sinister was under Noyes mansion . Its a bunker & Tunnel system . Wild guess it was the last resort if Germany invaded , Chemical & Bio weapons storage hence the 100 years ,2045 that becomes declassified

    Something wrong somewhere. 6,800 gold bars each weighing 1 or 2 kilos (average 1.5kg) is 10,200 kg, 10.2 tons! 3 tons spread over 6,800 bars is about 440g per bar. Either that or there were only 2,000 bars.

    I thought of the same thing, issue with that is if it becomes common practice and robbers are aware of it, it might turn a nervous situation into a deadly paranoia that the code has been punched instead of the right one. and if the code isnt used during a heist, will the victims of the robbery be accused of aiding the robbers?

    Well its essentially just like panic buttons that places such as banks etc have under desk's they are common place and known about by criminals. People who use them can also turn nervous situations into deadly paranoia and they are much more obvious. If the code wasn't used then it would be highly suspicious therefore you have 2 or more codes that need to be entered to gain access and one person would have one code. If any of the codes were the alarm code then it would alert authorities, essentially meaning you would have to have everyone with codes to be 'in on it' reducing the likelihood. Of course there are flaws with this system and it would need refined.

    Surprised no one else commented on the effect the Brink's gold had on the investment of ecstasy in Britain in the early 90s. 34:02 - If it is in fact true, that's something I've never heard before and seems quite monumental. It was a cultural shift. The massive influx of all those pills, all those raves, and all those wild times influenced by a gold robbery? It would make sense if it is indeed true...and pretty crazy.

    You're joking right? Only 2 of the 6 thieves' were ever caught (well 3 but 1 of those was acquitted in court) and in today's money (Feb 2020) the value of that gold alone is £130Mil ? 80% of the gold/cash from sales was never recovered. The two that caught caught only got busted because of that grass black. They also made billions more by investing that cash into fuelling and creating the UK ecstasy pandemic in the 80's/90's and billons more from their investment in the massive property growth around the London dockland. A few of the people involved could now afford to buy a small country....... Or do you mean that any amount of money, isn't worth a bit of a headache?

When your getting more time for the robbery, than for a murder, the sentences would run concurrently anyway...... They just told the whole UK criminally world, you might as well kill a witness as you won't receive a harsher punishment for doing so and you will be much less likely to get caught if you so!

I would've buried the gold in a spot so good no one would've ever found the gold. I would just let it sit there until I get out of prison. Then still let it sit there til the cops are done watching me, then when the time is ready then I'll go get some gold and cash it in a little at a time.

    Valuation of the gold is completely out. I don't know when the documentary was made but the highest price of gold ever registered is about USD 60,000 per kg. At 3,000kgs(narrator says "almost 3,000kgs") that's USD 180 million tops; so significantly less than GBP 150 million.
