Lawless

Lawless is a two-part British television thriller miniseries, first broadcast on ITV from 8 to 9 November 2004.

The two-part miniseries was commissioned in 2003, along with another two-part miniseries written by Lang, Amnesia. The miniseries gathered good viewing figures, with the first part watched by 7.17 million, and the second by 5.65 million. Unlike Amnesia, the series has never been released on DVD.
