Colin Friels narrates this explosive new documentary series; Gangs of Oz tells the real stories of Australian crimes first families, groups who stop at nothing in their quest for money and power.
These gripping stories of the Australian underworld are told for the first time by the people who know it best - the insiders, former or current gang members, relatives,
victims and the police charged with the mission to stop the bloodshed.
As Gangs of Oz shows, tales of this nations ganglands go far deeper than the havoc caused by the simple drug dealers with itchy trigger fingers we see in the papers.
The reach of organised crime in Australia is vast, varied and harrowing. Recent news events have given us examples of the low price placed on a human life when it means a gang protecting its turf or exacting revenge on an enemy.
Gangs of Oz, narrated by Colin Friels, explores the characters attracted to life in criminal gangs, why they run in such unsavory packs, the lengths they are willing to go for their brothers and how they make their multi-million dollar operations work.
Each episode looks at a particular type of organised crime gang in Australia, whether it is under the banner of a bikie gang, forged along ethnic ties (eg: Middle Eastern or
Asian), or a more traditional mafia family.
Viewers will find the Gangs of Oz are elaborate and extraordinarily run collectives with their crooked fingers in all manner of criminal pies. Wherever you live, they are never far from your backyard"
