"Jim Broadbent is to lead the cast of BBC One&amp;#039;s second Great Train Robbery film.

Oscar winner Broadbent will star in the second instalment, &amp;#039;A Copper&amp;#039;s Tale&amp;#039;, as Tommy Butler - the detective charged with bringing the thieves to justice. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m thrilled to be part the Great Train Robbery film,&amp;quot; said the 63-year-old. &amp;quot;I have such strong memories of the massive impact of the actual robbery and it is wonderful to find out from the script so much of the real story. &amp;quot;Tommy Butler is a fascinating copper of the old school and I anticipate great fun playing him.&amp;quot; Chibnall added: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve enviously watched Jim&amp;#039;s work on other writers&amp;#039; scripts for years and I have to keep pinching myself that he&amp;#039;ll be bringing Tommy Butler to life in &amp;#039;A Copper&amp;#039;s Tale&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a dream piece of casting, leading an ensemble of thoroughbred great British actors.&amp;quot; Robert Glenister (Hustle), Tom Chambers (Waterloo Road), Tim Pigott-Smith (The Hour), Tom Beard (Hunted), James Wilby (Titanic) and James Fox (Charlie And The Chocolate Factory) will all join Broadbent in the 90-minute film. James Strong will helm the drama, reuniting with writer Chibnall following their work together on ITV&amp;#039;s Broadchurch. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
