Two teenage boys cycle 160km on stolen bikes pursued by police to find a missing bale of cocaine worth 7 million euro. Set around the real event of Ireland's biggest cocaine seizure in 2007 of 440 million euro.
'The Young Offenders' follows the coming of age adventures of lovable rogues Conor & Jock (Alex Murphy and Chris Walley, reprising their roles from the smash hit feature film) as they navigate their awkward teenage years, hatching plans and adventures to help distract from their tough home lives and their inability to stay out of trouble at school. Conor's long suffering mother Mairead (Hilary Rose) tries to keep both her son and his best friend on the straight and narrow, with varying degrees of success. The comedy series, created by Peter Foott, expands on characters already seen in the film as we watch the lads encountering love, loss, peer pressure, and morality, with each episode set in Cork, intertwining the tales with the city and characters the producers want to celebrate. 'The Young Offenders' is foremost a comedy and is packed with laughter, but it's also tender with lots of heart.
DCI Tom Brannick (James Nesbitt) returns, as the murder of a crooked accountant unravels a trail of greed that threatens to expose the true identity of the legendary assassin, codenamed, Goliath. Between Tom and redemption stands the accountant's widow, Olivia (Victoria Smurfit), whose intentions may be far from innocent. They will scheme together, keeping each other in knife point's reach, as they try to solve the riddle the accountant left behind. And as they become more immersed in the puzzle of each other, Tom and Olivia will draw in Tom's fellow officers DS Niamh McGovern (Charlene McKenna), DCS Jackie Twomey (Lorcan Cranitch) and DC Birdy Bird (Chris Walley), as well as his daughter, Izzy (Lola Pettigrew), until deceit and betrayal build to a shattering climax.
