Further details
Vinnie's plan to make money by carrying out an audacious raid on a rival grower's weed farm is sabotaged when Ronnie, Erin's older and diabolical brother, turns up on the run from prison. The gang's night-time rooftop raid descends into catastrophe when the lads are forced to use unconventional methods to avoid detection by their school-days adversary Carl Slater, a local policeman.
Dealing with the added problem of Ronnie, things are further complicated when Vinnie's doctor Chris turns up out of the blue. It's left to Erin to hatch a plan to get them out of there....

Press
Joe Gilgun's Shameless successor is still joyriding through rural Lancashire at a breakneck pace. This week's wild ride involves a raid on a rival weed grower's farm and an encounter with Erin's on-the-run brother Ronnie. Plus Dominic West is back as Vinnie's hilariously self-involved GP, Dr Cox.
