One priceless art collection, two of the most daring robberies in art heist history - carried out by two very different criminals. The Heiress and The General examines the lead up to the robberies, the aftermath and the hunt for the missing art – two priceless paintings remain missing to this day.

Episode 6: Tango One

In his desperation to get rid of the stolen art, Cahill takes drastic and dangerous action. His dealings with Loyalist paramilitaries in Ulster reawaken an old and very bitter feud with the IRA. Meanwhile, another international police operation spins a delicate web to entrap Cahill and his gang – leading to a final showdown at Antwerp airport.

The Heiress and The General features documentary interviews alongside dramatised scenes written by Claire McGowan.
