Episode 6

The search for one of the UK鈥檚 wealthiest drug smugglers leads officers to Greece, while police in London struggle through the snow to track a man wanted in Poland.

Simon Dutton was one of the UK鈥檚 wealthiest cocaine smugglers, bringing drugs into the country concealed in air-conditioning units destined for a fake company. After watching his gang for months, police decided to intercept the next shipment, swapping the drugs for fake packages and following the consignment to Leeds. The gang was taken down, but Dutton himself disappeared and evaded capture for six years. But like many fugitives on the run, his downfall was his need to see his family. By tracing their travels back and forth to Greece鈥檚 second city, Thessaloniki, Hellenic Police and the UK鈥檚 National Crime Agency eventually tracked down the international criminal to a bar in the city.

In London, DS Pete Rance hopes his investigations will lead him to a Romanian man accused of a very serious and violent crime, and the extradition team struggle through the snow looking for a convicted rapist wanted in Poland.
