The Outlaws follows a group of strangers undertaking a community payback sentence in Bristol. The group of misfits can never stay out of trouble for long, and drug dealers, suitcases full of cash, and a lot of poor decisions keep getting them back into trouble.
The show concerns a group of strangers brought together by community service. Among them are lawyer and social disaster Greg Dillard, played by Merchant, and Frank Sheldon, a former conman played by Christopher Walken (Pulp Fiction).
Series one saw the gang come into contact with a bag of money, drawing them into the world of the Dean (Claes Bang), a drug lord who wants his cash back. The second series sees the group go deeper into the world of crime, selling drugs themselves.
