Hard-hitting six-part drama series by Lynda La Plante, award-winning writer of Prime Suspect.
Having reluctantly left the Paras after 14 years, Frank Dillon finds it difficult to adjust to civilian life. Missing the excitement of military action he sets up a security company with four other ex-paratroopers. Can they resist the pull of the voracious underworld of organised crime and run a legitimate business?
Peter O'Toole makes a rare cameo appearance.
