Loaded with attitude and stuffed full of style Lock Stock ...and four stolen hooves is the dynamic opening episode in the series inspired by GUY RITCHIE's smash British film Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The lads own an East End pub called The Lock where much of their ducking and diving is done. Plots hatched plans discussed fiddles fixed. But while the lads would never call themselves 'angels' they draw the line at real violence - and rather find themselves more involved in jams scams scraps and scrapes. With loads of humour gangland action atmospheric locations and plenty of style the TV series has as much punch as the original film.
Inspired by such notable erotic thrillers of the ’80s and ’90s as Fatal Attraction, Basic Instinct and Single White Female, Compulsion centers around the dynamically twisted relationship between two women, as both become embroiled in a series of horrific murders on the island of Malta. Kirk’s character, Diana, is described as a flamboyant and ruthless thief; Sieklucka’s Evie, as a seemingly innocent young woman with a troubled past and a dark secret.

Cecilie and Angel are ready to help, and gradually the power structures and privileges within the beautiful homes start to expose. Yet, Cecilie's commitment to uncovering the truth is put to the test when Ruby's disappearance reveals connections reaching into Cecilie's own family. She is forced to confront her blind spots and view her family and the environment in which she is raising her children in a whole new light.
