Yeah its worth a watch, especially this lot of episodes! Prohibition doesn’t work, people will find a way around things its how we work and have survived for all these years! So will take a look! BTW David have u heard any complaints about the new SBS on demand app? Cause I’m having problems with mine!
No.
I am enjoying this show. It gets behind the usual babble to talk to the people doing the crime and tries to understand what motives them. The one on stealing high end cars was a surprise. The one on buying guns showed how it worked. Great show and well worth some eyeballs.
