The Fear

Peter Mullan stars as a gangster struggling with the early onset of Alzheimer's in this four-part TV drama written by Richard Cottan.

After a life of casual violence, intimidation and consolidation, the advancing years bring new and unforeseen dangers to Brighton crime boss-cum-stalwart of the community Richie Beckett (Mullan).

With an Albanian sex-trafficking gang attempting to muscle in on his operation, a confused Richie soon finds himself fighting on all fronts, as he attempts to hold on to his sanity whilst trying to keep the early stages of dementia at bay.
