Extremely rough around the edges. Almost charmingly so, but not quite. <em>'Gold'</em> hits many a trope/cliché for what it aims to do, which is obvious to see but it's not produced with the softest of touches. I do like the cast, from Maisie Williams to James Nesbitt to Kerry Condon to David Wilmot, but they don't have much to work with unfortunately. At least it doesn't run for too long. I wouldn't class it as anything bad per se, though I can't see myself remembering this in t-minus 1 day.
