Drugsland - Season 0 Episode 1 Going Country
A gritty, multi-perspective look at the impact of illegal drugs in a rural community. Rather than focusing on big city drug dealing, this film tells the story of how a gang from the city establish a ‘county line’ and muscle their way into the drug economy of rural Devon. They take control of the supply of drugs by intimidating local dealers and enforcing their authority throughout the underworld. The gang deploys extremes of violence rarely seen before on the country lanes and small town streets of rural England. A stabbing on the side of a remote A-road in Devon kick-starts a police investigation that leads to the exposure of a huge drug-dealing network with links to Liverpool. With full access to the police investigation, the film gives an in-depth and up-close inside view of the complexity and difficulty of taking down an entire county lines gang - from the bottom right to the top.
