The Great Bookie Robbery

On 21st April 1976, gunmen held up more than 50 members of Melbourne’s venerable Victorian club, escaping with several million dollars in untraceable cash. The robbery had been so brilliantly planned and executed that police were left without a single clue–and so strict was the robbers’ code of silence that not even the underworld was aware of their identities.

This production, originally released in 1986, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Miniseries series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Crime, Drama genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 7.0 across its 1 season.
