| 01 | Episode One: Unexpected Visitors | 20210405 | It was the biggest bank robbery in British and Irish history. Days before Christmas 2004, gangs of armed men take over the homes of two Northern Bank officials in Belfast and County Down.

With the finger of blame pointed at the IRA, the raid makes headlines around the world and sends shock-waves through an already faltering Northern Ireland peace process.

Military precision giving way to soap powder boxes stuffed with cash. The bickering of politicians against the silence of the man said to be the robbery's mastermind. There are even rumours that proceeds from the robbery are to be used as a pension fund for members of the IRA as it prepared to disband and disarm.
