Hustle - Season 2

The gang are back in town and, against his better judgement, Mickey gives Danny a chance to employ his own unique brand of grift sense in running a scam. However, the mark, Howard Jennings, has a habit of sending con men to jail, so the risks for the gang are high. It doesn't make them feel any better to discover that Danny plans to convince Jennings, a savvy property developer, that there's a goldmine in the heart of London.

Mickey and his team plan to con Johnny Keyes, a volatile celebrity chef. It falls to Danny to convince Keyes that he is his long-lost son and thus claim his inheritance, but it looks like Danny might need a few cooking lessons if he's to impress his new-found 'father'. The fact that Keyes has a shady past as a violent gangster adds an element of menace and life could be very unpleasant for the gang if they don't pull this off.

Danny makes a new friend - Trevor Speed - who also happens to be a short con artist. He persuades the others to let Trevor into the gang for their latest scam, which involves a rare bank note and a greedy collector. If they pull it off it could be very lucrative, but can the new addition to the team handle the pressure of the long con?

The team enter the world of comic book fanatics when they plan to rip off an auction house. However, their con goes awry when corrupt copper Sam Williams decides she wants in. With Sam holding a jail sentence over their heads, Mickey and co are forced to let her in on the con, but can they really trust her?

Stacie gets a shock when her estranged husband, former short con artist Jake Henry, appears. He has reinvented himself as a poker professional, so the gang decide to take him on at his own game to try and win back some of the money he took from Stacie's savings account when he ran out on her. However, Stacie is central to their plan, so will she be able to stop herself falling for Jake all over again?

It's the biggest score of all time: stealing the Crown Jewels. Mickey wants to know if the rest of the gang are up for it, but they're not sure this one's for them. Can Mickey convince his team and still allow enough time to put their plan together?
