HUSTLE

Hustle

Hustle is a British television drama series made by Kudos Film and Television for BBC One in the United Kingdom. Created by Tony Jordan and first broadcast in 2004, the series follows a group of con artists who specialise in "long cons" – extended deceptions which require greater commitment, but which return a higher reward than simple confidence tricks. The BBC announced that the eighth series, which was first aired in January 2012, would be the last. The final series ended on 17 February 2012.
