Double bill of British crime dramas. 'The Rise and Fall of a White
Collar Hooligan' (2012) follows Mike Jacobs (Nick Nevern), a
football casual who is no stranger to finding himself on the wrong
side of the law. However, the violence and intimidation he indulges
in at football matches are one thing, the credit card fraud schemes
proposed by his friend Eddie Hill (Simon Phillips) are something
else, and Mike is soon in over his head. In 'The Rise and Fall of a
White Collar Hooligan 2: England Away' (2013) Mike is living in
Spain, safeguarded by the Witness Protection Programme after
testifying against several of his former associates. Mike's fatal
weakness is his passion for the England football team and his
problems begin when he is spotted attending a game. Soon his life
is turned upside down as those he betrayed seek revenge through the
kidnapping of his friend Katie (Rita Ramnani).
