BBC's 'This City Is Ours' Set to Redefine the Crime Drama Landscape

The eight-part series, premiering March 23, explores family, love, and moral conflicts within Liverpool's criminal underworld.

Sean Bean stars as Ronnie Phelan, a crime boss weighing retirement as his empire faces internal and external threats.
James Nelson-Joyce plays Michael Kavanagh, a conflicted right-hand man torn between his criminal life and his love for Diana Williams.
The series delves into themes of family dynamics, ambition, and moral complexity, drawing comparisons to 'Breaking Bad' and 'The Sopranos.'
Filmed in Liverpool and Spain, the production highlights authentic Liverpudlian accents and cultural elements, supported by local actors and dialect coaches.
Financially backed by Liverpool City Council's Film Office, the show has already contributed £9 million to the local economy.
