Shameless: Series 9

All eleven episodes from the ninth series of the irreverent Channel 4 family drama following the lives and loves of the anarchic and dysfunctional Gallagher family.

Led by father Frank (David Threlfall), the family live on a rough council estate in Manchester and get caught up in all manner of scrapes, though they largely retain their good humour.

This series kicks off with half of the estate, including the Gallaghers, being evicted to make way for Operation New Start - a plan to turn the scheme into an urban wasteland.

Frank also struggles with the fact that Carl (Elliott Tittensor) is a newly-qualified policeman.
