McMafia
Welcome to the family business.
Created by James Watkins, Hossein Amini
On BBC One
A taut, psychologically interior crime drama about inherited obligation and moral compromise, where a man's attempt to escape his family's criminal legacy collapses under pressure.
Alex Godman, the English-raised son of Russian mafia exiles, has spent his life trying to escape the shadow of their past, building his own legitimate business and forging a life with his girlfriend Rebecca. But when a murder forces his family's past to return to threaten them, Alex is drawn into the criminal underworld and must confront his values to protect those he loves.
