In case you missed it, the show’s first season followed the Wallace family and their loss of patriarch Finn.

His assassination came as a real shock to everyone, resulting in his son Sean taking over as head of London’s most powerful crime group.

However, Sean didn’t realise that one of his biggest enemies was rather close to home, with undercover cop Elliott infiltrating the family.

On top of that, he had the Kurdish Freedom Fighters, the Pakistani Drug Cartel, Welsh travellers and other criminal bodies to answer to.
