Synopsis: David Gold is a remarkable person with an even more improbable story. This is the original rags to riches tale of a man journeying from abject poverty and ill health in the back streets of the East End to a multi-million pound business empire and a magnificent mansion in the heart of the Surrey countryside. Along the way this fascinating story introduces us to crushing poverty, dysentery, East End villainy, anti-semitism and a father in prison...then a crucial 'break' in the world of business, followed by ownership of national newspapers and the hugely successful Ann Summers retail business, plus chairmanship of Premiership team Birmingham City FC. "Pure Gold" is a tale that will inspire people from all walks of life, by a man who has kept his feet on the ground at all times on his unbelievable life journey.
