Series following a mining company as it attempts to establish Scotland's first gold mine.
There is no Next Episode of Gold Town planned.
S1E1 - Episode 1
It's August 2019, and John's son Davy is one of the mine supervisors leading a team of local lads new to mining. Training here means the miners could get jobs abroad that pay almost three times the average for the area. However, working 12-hour shifts underground can be challenging; it is noisy, dusty and damp, with a potential for unexpected rock fall and hazardous fumes.
