Observational documentary series following Sparta Security, a Darlington-based private security firm. Sparta is run by well-known local character Francis Jones, who has given behind-the-scenes access to himself, his staff and their operations.
Francis is a born again Christian and former professional boxer. He is a man with a big personality and he's on a mission to clean up the streets of Darlington. No job is too small for Sparta Security and Francis often goes the extra mile to help his clients with often outrageous but also hilarious consequences.
Francis relies on his office team Rachel and Claire who use their unusual sales techniques to help him find and secure new business. The work they bring in varies from mediating in neighbourhood disputes to guarding against grand larceny at big businesses in the area. Francis employs a number of security staff to work with him including balaclava-clad ex-forces officers, part-time bouncers and a personal trainer, and together they use a range of unorthodox methods to make Darlington a better place to live.
In this episode, Francis is hired to protect a local angling lake from fish thieves and embarks on a covert mission to try and catch the culprits in the act. Pembow is on a charm offensive to get back in Sparta's good books. He goes out promoting the company in his own time, but is also considering other job options. Sparta is hired to do security for a balloon festival. While Rachel handles recruitment, Francis, with an injury to contend with, finds himself cornered when an argument in the car park threatens to get out of control.
