The Fixer (2008 TV series)

Only five years into his life sentence for killing his aunt and uncle – a crime committed when he discovered their abuse of his sister – John Mercer is released from prison.

With the head of a notorious crime family dead, Lenny visits his successor, the vital police mole Jude Cassidy, to persuade him to come under police protection. Jude and an accomplice have recently been acquitted for the savage murder of a young black man whose cousin, Elviss Gilroy, is making plans to avenge his death.

Lenny is alerted to the recent arrival of a notorious Albanian gangster Tarek Sokoli.

Fed up with their lifestyle, Mercer takes Calum on an educational trip to the supermarket. Lenny finds them there and orders Mercer to kill Scott Glover, a man just acquitted of the murder of the young, innocent, 20-year-old Marie Greene.

Rose tells Lenny that a former member of Lenny's unit – John Mercer's predecessor, Patrick Finch – has gone on a vigilante-style rampage, meting out his particular brand of justice against drug-dealers, as well as two escort girls. Lenny tells Mercer to kill Finch, but events soon get complicated. Meanwhile, Hugh Berry, the man who sorts out the paperwork to cover the unit's illicit activities, asks Lenny to take out a hit on his behalf. A hit-and-run driver Trevor Bowyer rendered Hugh's grandson, Owen, mentally disabled, but only served two years for the crime. Whilst emphatic that they are not a bunch of vigilantes, Lenny is left in no doubt that if he doesn't send his hit man to kill Trevor Bowyer, then Hugh will find one of his own.
