The Con Is On

Synopsis:
The con. An invisible crime built on the premise of finding someone who wants something for nothing and then giving them nothing for something. Choose the mark, play on their desires, set them up and then reel them in.

From the creators of MI-5, Hustle is the story of five expert con artists set loose on the streets of London. They extract cach from the amoral an the undeserving. Their first rule of law: You can't cheat an honest man.

Set in London, Hustle is a TV drama about the exploits of five con artists (played by Adrian Lester, Jaime Murray, Robert Glenister, Marc Warren, and Robert Vaughn). This group of four men and one woman all have heads filled with lofty ambition, marking them out from the petty thievery of most ordinary grifters, and allowing some spectacular plans to blossom as they plot ways in which to get rich.
