LatestIn this final episode, Tony has a major victory against the police, but suspects his former mate Carl Williams has betrayed him. Carl's double-dealings with the police backfire when he is brutally murdered by a fellow inmate. Judy Moran takes revenge on Des 'Tuppence' Moran with disastrous consequences. The police finally close in on Tony as he plays his last hand but it appears he is 'drawing dead'.
The true story of Tony Mokbel; how he grew entangled with the country’s most notorious underworld figures, how he built his massive fortune, and how he became a fugitive on a yacht bound for Greece, desperate to escape mounting criminal law battles.
Acting
Robert Mammone somehow makes Mokbel weirdly sympathetic.
Production
That yacht-to-Greece sequence is pure anxiety cinema.
Writing
Balances court transcripts with surprisingly tender domestic scenes.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Robert Mammone previously played Mokbel in Underbelly (2008), making this a rare actor-character reunion across different productions.
Mokbel was arrested in Athens in 2007 wearing an $18,000 watch and carrying a forged passport under the name 'Stephen Papadopoulos' — the show recreates this almost shot-for-shot.
