The power dynamics in BBC One’s gritty crime drama “This City Is Ours” are about to undergo a seismic shift. As Ronnie Phelan’s influence within the Kavanagh organization grows, Michael Kavanagh finds his grip on power loosening – and his paranoia intensifying. This Sunday’s second episode stirs in another volatile element to the mix: burgeoning affections that threaten to further destabilize the already precarious criminal enterprise.
The growing connection between Ronnie (Sean Bean) and Jamie adds fuel to the fire, creating friction within the ranks and putting Michael (James Nelson-Joyce) on edge. He’s a man accustomed to control, and the prospect of being usurped by Ronnie is a bitter pill to swallow. The episode centers on Michael’s response to this changing landscape, a critical decision that will determine his fate.
“This City Is Ours” explores the collision of love, loyalty, and ambition in a world where trust is a commodity and betrayal is always a possibility. How far will Michael go to protect what he considers his?
Tune in to BBC One this Sunday, March 30th at 9:00 PM to witness the escalating tensions and the potentially devastating consequences of unchecked ambition.
