Synopsis
This hard-hitting series gets up close and personal with some of the world’s most dangerous people, taking us deep into the world of gang culture.
Using violence and organised crime to achieve their goals, some of these gangs will kill anyone that gets in their way, while others adopt violent initiation rites that mean once a person joins a gang, they are members for life.
And they all think they are above the law.
Here, doors are opened to harsh realities where Kemp’s usual image of an EastEnders hard man is softened by the brutal nature of the gangs.
