Episode 5

BBC One - The Outlaws, Series 2, Episode 5

Seemingly home free, the outlaws discover that the underworld doesn’t let go so easily.

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?

Christian and Esme receive a surprise visit from their mum, and Rani’s parents make a generous offer. Diane shares her findings with Haines, who is surprised to realise the trainee special constable might actually be onto something. The net closes around Myrna and Greg after their respective deceits, leading one to turn to Frank for help and the other to finally come clean. Greg catches up with an old acquaintance while in pursuit of a spiralling Gabby, and Frank’s family enjoy a lobster dinner, with Frank paying. After weeks of work, the outlaws think they’ve found the light at the end of the tunnel - until the Dean closes it.
