The Great Bookie Robbery

on BBC Two England

A powerful three-part
Australian drama about one of the most daring crimes in that country's history. Starring
1: Parkhurst Prison, England. Mike Power prepares for release and return to his native Australia with a single thought in mind: one final audacious robbery. The target is Melbourne's
Victorian Club, the home of the city's bookmakers.
Power must also contend with police still tracking him for past offences and a faction-ridden Melbourne underworld where violence is a way of life.
