The Outlaws

Seven very different strangers begin their community payback sentences, renovating a derelict building in Bristol. But can any of these ‘outlaws’ really reform?

The outlaws find a bag of cash, clearly the proceeds of crime. But who does it belong to?

The outlaws find themselves in choppy waters. A campaigner is rejected by the very cause to which she dedicated her life, and a decision is made about the outlaw’s sudden windfall.

A lifelong scoundrel reflects on his past mistakes, the police recruit a surprising new deputy, and a young woman makes a decision which could endanger the lives of all of the outlaws. Can the outlaws launder their dirty money before the gangsters track them down?

The outlaws must hustle on two fronts — with a captain of industry, and a member of the landed gentry. An audacious break-in is planned, and an imposter is heartbreakingly exposed.

Even with redemption seemingly in reach, the outlaws find their time running out, and the net closing around them. They face a stark choice — die apart, or survive together?

A few months on, the outlaws still have time to serve on their sentences. But they discover the criminal underworld isn’t done with them yet.

In order to stay alive, the outlaws consider an unlikely— and dangerous — way of making money. Meanwhile, two familiar detectives turn their attention to a certain London kingpi

The outlaws’ illicit business begins to run like a well-oiled machine. An old dog struggles to learn new tricks, and a protest erupts at the community centre.

The outlaws meet a cook of sorts and an unlikely date takes place at a pub quiz. Two outlaws have a very close call, while a ghost from the past induces an emotional reckoning.

Against the backdrop of a family reunion and a slap-up meal, the outlaws begin to believe their ordeal might be at an end. But can their tormentor be so easily satisfied?

Out of options and time, the outlaws must take extreme measures. But with the eyes of the public and the police on them, can they together pull off the con to end all cons?
