From Headmaster's daughter to wife of a criminal, the story of Charmian Biggs' marriage to an infamous fugitive is a moving tale of dishonour, deception and love.
The Great Train Robbery of 1963 was the crime of the decade, making gang member Ronnie Biggs infamous. Forced to choose between her disapproving family and the man she loved, Charmian chose Ronnie. Despite the promises he made to her, he returned to a life of crime. Ronnie was arrested and imprisoned for his involvement in the heist but, unable to face the sentence, Ronnie escaped and the couple fled to Australia. There they began a new life, which for Charmian would ultimately lead to tragedy and betrayal. An inspiring true story of passion and sacrifice from the makers of the award-winning drama Appropriate Adult.

Seen this on TV before I bought Mrs Biggs. I loved the story as it gave a wife's perspective on her husbands crime "The great train robbery" . Top class actors and actresses. I recommend this anytime. Definitely worth a view.
Mrs Biggs is a very interesting true story made more interesting by the fact that the Biggs came to Australia. Although a sad story, it is well worth watching. The acting and making of the film are very good.
Excellent version from Mrs Biggs.
great film, you could watch it over and over. Just fantastic! It's about time we had some decent TV programmes. I would rate this 10 out of 10.
