Mobland: Season 1<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>(2025)<\/p>\n Created by: Ronan Bennett<\/strong><\/p>\n Director:\u00a0 Guy Ritchie<\/strong> (Eps. 1-2), Anthony Byrne<\/strong> (Eps. 3-4, 9-10), Daniel Syrkin <\/strong>(Eps. 5-6); Lawrence Gough <\/strong>(Eps. 7-8)<\/p>\n Teleplay by:\u00a0 Ronan Bennett <\/strong>and Jez Butterworth\u00a0<\/strong> Starring: Tom Hardy, Pierce

Daniel Betts <\/strong>and Emmett J Scanlan<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Tagline:\u00a0 None.<\/p>\n The Plot\u2026 (beware of spoilers)<\/strong><\/p>\n Two London crime families, the Harrigans and the Stevensons have long existed with an uneasy truce.\u00a0 That changes when Tommy Stevenson, the only son of crime boss Richie Stevenson, disappears.\u00a0 Tommy was last seen with Eddie Harrigan, the grandson of Conrad Harrigan.\u00a0 Conrad is the patriarch of the Harrigans.<\/p>\n As the two families prepare for war, Harry Da Souza, a fixer for the Harrigans at first works to keep the peace.\u00a0 When actions from both families make peace impossible, Harry must…<\/p>\n Harry sees that Conrad is losing his grip.\u00a0 Ten years ago, no one would have come against the Harrigans.\u00a0 Now Richie Stevenson’s family may have the upper hand.\u00a0 Complicating things is Conrad’s wife, Maeve, sees herself as the power behind the throne.\u00a0 Maeve not only encourages Eddie in his antics, but also takes steps to increase the friction between the Harrigans and the Stevensons.<\/p>\n Harry is considered a valuable player.\u00a0 He is calm and cool in the worst situations.\u00a0 Harry knows how to resolve the worst complications.\u00a0 Harry realizes that Conrad’s leadership is faltering.\u00a0 Harry also knows that Maeve and Eddie would like Harry “gone”.<\/em>\u00a0 With his wife ready to take his daughter and leave him, Harry knows their lives are as at risk as his.<\/p>\n The powder keg is going to explode.\u00a0 Not all will survive.<\/p>\n Thoughts…<\/strong><\/p>\n Mobland features an amazing cast.\u00a0 Tom Hardy is perfect as the fixer Harry Da Souza.<\/p>\n Pierce Brosnan has never been better.\u00a0 His portrayal of Conrad Harrigan is 180 degrees from the cool, Bond-type character he does so well.\u00a0 This role shows Brosnan’s range.<\/p>\n Helen Mirren as Maeve Harrigan shows a different side of her as well.\u00a0 Her Maeve is a devious, power-hungry, smart, scary woman who more than holds her own with the men around her.<\/p>\n Geoff Bell as Richie Stevenson is a formidable foe.\u00a0 Bell gets to show his range in this role.<\/p>\n Anson Boon as Eddie is perfect.\u00a0 Boon plays a cocky, arrogant, crazy young wanna-be who is at times scary and other times weak, but always despicable.<\/p>\n Paddy Considine, Janet McTeer, Jasmine Jobson, Emmett J Scanlan and Mandeep Dhillon all also shine.<\/p>\n Kudos to the writers for creating a series with so many varied and interesting characters.\u00a0 The twists and turns as the tension ratchets up make for must-see viewing.\u00a0 I cannot wait for season two.<\/p>\n Mobland: Season 1<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>(2025) rates 5 of 5 stars.<\/p>\n Mobland:
