THE BBC is to dramatise The Great Train Robbery to mark the 50th anniversary in August of the heist of a Glasgow-London service that netted the gang £2.6million.
It will show two 90-minute films, with Hollywood star Luke Evans portraying the mastermind of the mail robbery, Bruce Reynolds.
Reynolds died last week, aged 81.
