Sahara with Michael Palin (2002)

Episode Overview

An ex-con, determined to stay on the right path, decides to tip off the authorities about a group of would-be robbers planning to hit the bar where he works, rather than aiding his old friends in crime. However, the robbers are linked to Link Toland, a seemingly upstanding businessman with significant political influence. This connection raises the stakes for the young informant, putting pressure not only on him and his family but also on the detectives investigating the case and the bar owner.
