Episode 196

He was no mastermind, no cold-eyed kingpin orchestrating a perfect crime. Ronnie Biggs was something else entirely — an unlikely outlaw, a charming misfit who stumbled into one of the most audacious heists in British history and then did something few manage: he vanished. This is not a story of sharp suits and silent safes, but of grit and greed, of panic and passports, of back-alley surgeries and samba drums.

It’s the tale of a man who coshed no one, fired no gun, but found his name chained forever to a crime that shook the country. From a grey English prison to the sun-blasted streets of Rio de Janeiro, this is the story of a man who ran far, ran fast, and ran out of time.

Ronnie Biggs: train robber, fugitive, folk antihero.
This is how he slipped the net — and what happened after.
