Good cops, bad cops, strippers, gamblers, gunmen, dealers, bouncers, dreamers and bagmen. In 1988 they were all to be found on the Golden Mile in Sydney's Kings Cross.
Among them, a smart and sexy young Kim Hollingsworth; the smiling, ambitious teenager John Ibrahim; crime figures the Bayeh Brothers and George Freeman; and bent cops like Trevor Haken and Chook Fowler... the Golden Mile was their playground, and they played like there was no tomorrow.
Then in 1995, 'tomorrow' came and the Wood Royal Commission cleaned out the Black Empire within the NSW Police.
Underbelly: The Golden Mile is the story of the excesses of empire, the collapse of the empire, the chaos that followed, and the ultimate victory of strong and honest police.... seen through the eyes of some of the most sexy, charming corrupt and deadly people of the time.
