Description
Hustle follows the fortunes of a gang of five expert con artists let loose on
the streets of London. From rare comic books to antique banknotes they are
specialists in the way of the grifter and all are keen to liberate cash from the
amoral and undeserving...
Gold Mine: Mickey, Danny, Albert, Ash and Stacie return from a
well-earned break to discover that old time grifter Harry Holmes (Ronald Pickup)
has been banged up. After attempting to con ruthless property developer Howard
Jennings, Holmes may be in for a long stretch. Jennings has been stung before
and won't be out-smarted by anyone - or so he thinks...
Confessions: The gang are on the verge of completing a job but Albert's
gone AWOL. When he finally appears it's all too late because 'the mark' has
pulled out - but Albert has a new plan. After spotting Johnny Keyes - a
prominent restaurateur with a notorious gangland background - in a church, he
goes undercover as a priest to hear Keyes' confession¿
The Lesson: Danny has found a potential new member of the gang, Trevor.
He's a short con artist and very good at what he does, but he targets the
elderly and the poor as well as the greedy. Danny threatens to walk if the gang
won't give Trevor a chance, so they reluctantly trust Danny's instincts. But is
the gang finally going to end up being conned themselves?
Missions: The team's plan to con an auction house with a comic book
forgery goes awry when corrupt copper Sam Phillips (Fay Ripley) decides she
wants in on the play.
Old Acquaintance: When Stacie claps eyes on her estranged husband Jake
(Max Beesley) who left her five years ago taking everything she owned with him,
she's certain he is to be the gang's next mark. Having graduated from the short
con world to the professional poker circuit he's good and he won't be an easy
target...
Eye Of The Beholder: Mickey's got a plan and this one is like no other:
they're going to steal the Crown Jewels! Initially, the gang assume Mickey is
joking - they are not thieves but Mickey asks them to trust him and so they
reluctantly agree to the elaborate con. This will be the biggest challenge
they'll ever undertake, but Mickey's convinced they're good enough to pull it
off.
