"The Gentlemen sees Eddie Horniman (Theo James) unexpectedly inherit his father's sizeable country estate — only to discover it's part of a cannabis empire. Moreover, a host of unsavoury characters from Britain's criminal underworld want a piece of the operation," begins the official synopsis for the series.

"Determined to extricate his family from their clutches, Eddie tries to play the gangsters at their own game. However, as he gets sucked into the world of criminality, he begins to find a taste for it."
