All four episodes of the Channel 5 drama starring Amanda Abbington. When teenager Finn (Jesse Cescatti-McFarlane) finds himself in significant debt to gangster Kristof (Gábor Nagypál), Kristof threatens to kill him unless he receives his money. Finn's mother Rowan (Abbington) doesn't have enough funds to cover the debt, so she decides to steal what she needs from the bank where she worked until recently, in order to save her son. While she plans the robbery, unsure of who she can trust to help her, the police get uncomfortably close as they search for Finn. Warren Brown and Sunetra Sarker also star.
