Synopsis:

Top Boy: Complete First Season
All four episodes from the first series of the gritty British crime drama following a gang of drug dealers in Hackney, London. After receiving a loan from Bobby Raikes (Geoff Bell), Dushane (Ashley Walters) and Sully (Kane Robinson)'s drugs business thrives, enabling them to lead a rich lifestyle. Their situation takes a dark turn, however, when their rival, Kamale (Scorcher), steals their stash and violence breaks out amongst the gangs. Meanwhile, 13-year-old Ra'Nell (Malcolm Kamulete) becomes inadvertently involved in the drugs circle after his mother is taken into hospital.

Top Boy: Complete Second Season
All four episodes from the second series of the gritty British crime drama following a gang of drug dealers in Hackney, London. In this series, Dushane (Ashley Walters) has worked his way to the top but finds he has an enemy in his one-time associate Sully (Kane Robinson) who now has a new ruthless crime partner. When their common nemesis Kamale (Scorcher) is found dead both Dushane and Sully fall under suspicion. Meanwhile, 15-year-old Ra'Nell (Malcolm Kamulete) is lying low with the district youth squad trials fast approaching but his friend Gem (Giacomo Mancini) is unable to do the same.

Top Boy: Series 1
On London's Summerhouse Estate, challenges come in all forms, especially for kids. Thirteen-year-old Ra'Nell (Malcolm Kamulete) finds he has to step up and be a man when his mentally ill mother Lisa (Sharon Duncan Brewster) is suddenly hospitalised. Meanwhile, in the courtyards of Summerhouse Estate a thriving but invisible business is being run by Dushane (Ashley Walters) and his friend Sully (Kane Robinson). Charming, sexy and clever, the 26-year-old Dushane has already run out of things to be - except this'. When he attracts the attention of ex-convict and drug dealer Bobby Raikes (Geoff Bell) he seizes an opportunity to be more, to have more - to be Top Boy. Featuring an ensemble cast of brilliant new talent, Top Boy is Ronan Bennett's new four-part drama about young lives lived on the edge and, for the most part, lived out of sight in east London today.

Top Boy: Series 2
Following on from the huge success of Ronan Bennett's award winning first series we return to the Summerhouse estate a year later. Dushane (Ashley Walters) has finally made it as 'Top Boy', but the police are closing in on him for past crimes committed and he is separated from his old ally, Sully (Kane Robinson). As life on the estate collides with that of organised crime and corporate greed, tensions escalate. Dushane, facing attacks from ruthless gangs and in intensifying police investigation, needs Sully by his side to save their livelihoods - and their lives. Mirroring this is the story of best friends, Ra'Nell (Malcolm Kamulete) and Gem (Giacomo Mancini). Gem finds himself out of his depth and desperate in his attempt to deal drugs and has to turn to Ra'Nell for help. Will Ra'Nell turn his back on Gem or will they both be dragged further into a violent and unpredictable world…
