In our first episode, we delve into Glasgow's infamous crime godfather, Arthur Thompson, and the murder of his son. For more than 30 years – until his death in 1993 – Arthur Thompson ruled Glasgow’s criminal underworld with an iron fist through his interests in extortion, money lending, illegal casinos, robbery, and drugs.
