Gangs of London [DVD]

Product Information

Asif is NOT in the hotel room where the rival gangs meet, he’s in a separate, rather nicer room, making a deal with Lale. It was Sean’s actions which indirectly lead to Luan’s escape and ability to rescue his wife too, while Luan doesn’t have any relationship with Elliot. Elliot has forged alliances with the Dumanis and has assumed a new role on London's streets (more on that below). The once powerful Ed Dumani (Lucian Msamati) knows which side his bread is buttered and has turned chief negotiator, especially now his daughter Shannon (Pippa Bennett-Warner) is out of jail and reunited with her young son Danny. To see nuanced expressions of Blackness in the show was immediately heartening, and I’m so proud to be part of a show that shows London as it is.

No one knew what to expect, and despite the title evoking Guy Ritchie East End geezer-pleasers, what we got was a glossy, highly cinematic drama about international factions vying for power in a Gotham-ized version of the capital city. It’s a different structure to series one, not a descent into chaos but chaos from the off, which starts with an almost nihilistic picture of London.

Those who didn't make it through the street wars were Arta Dobroshi's Floriana (her last-minute double crossing of the Wallaces earned her a bullet in the head) and Koba (Waleed Zuaiter), Afridi's enforcer. A crazed Luan does everything in his power to save her, and after an exhausting ordeal in episode 4, he succeeds.

Sean may be in the clink, but if he can come back from the dead, there's no way he won't come back from this. As you'll know if you've seen the first season, Gangs of London transports us to a gritty version of England's capital city dominated by warring criminal factions, and season 2 looks set to deliver even more of the visceral action we'd want to see. Gang violence in London and the African diaspora community go seemingly hand in hand," Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù told Vulture.

Waleed Zuaiter ( Baghdad Central, The Spy) plays Koba, the new gang leader installed by The Investors. The answer, take away everything he values, starting with his position in the streets and that's what Elliot (Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù) means to do. When the head of one of the city's most influential families was assassinated, his youngest son, Finn Wallace (Joe Cole) jumped at the chance to arrest control over the growing power struggle.

Only season three will tell exactly how long they work together before one attempts to kill the other. You’re existing in a world of criminals, everyone in gangs is a criminal and there is something interesting to watch where you can relate to the characters because they are family members. The Investors have sent in a new enforcer to get the various gangs in line – this is Koba, a Georgian assassin with no affiliation to any of the gangs. Initially joined forces with Finn’s mistress Floriana (Arta Dobroshi), and supplying weapons to Luan to distribute, she’s taking control for herself. Season 2, on the other hand, has made the mistake of doubling down on all the ridiculous and sub par elements of character writing and plot, asking us to turn off our brains to the point of drooling lobotomy, whilst offering almost none of the rewards of excellent fights/shootouts, editing, creative camerawork and crazy conspiracy cheese of the previous season.However, instead of being killed, Afridi spared Lale's life, and the two formed some kind of alliance. We’d love to see Hardy back but we wouldn’t be surprised if a new director picked up the reins bringing their own flavor with it.

Full of twists, turns and exhilarating, cinematic action sequences, the series will introduce us to new characters and unexpected leaders will emerge. She takes it to Ed (Lucian Msamati) claiming that with it the Dumani's could take control without the need for Marian or the Wallaces. Although that ending left the fate of some of Gangs of London's major players hanging in the balance, we've got a good idea of who'll be back.Gifted him earlier by Sean, it contains years' worth of information accumulated by Finn prior to his death, detailing the investors' corrupt activities.
