Post Movie Footnotes before closing credits.


A fine TV miniseries telling of the Great Train Robbery on the whole and in the post movie story footnotes they mention the sentence of Bruce Reynolds along with the eventual sad death of the engine driver, which is well and good. But surely to God the most significant related event to occur following the saga was the prison escape and life on the run of RONALD BIGGS. Why in Gods name wouldn't you put a couple of paragraphs on the screen outlining this, as well as his eventual return to England and re-jailing. Surely not everyone who watched the miniseries was old enough to know about all that. It just seems astonishing that they wouldn't mention it in the footnotes.
