Logan Roy (Brian Cox) is a monstrous media tycoon in this grimly compelling – and also darkly funny – show about greed, money and power.

10. GANGS OF LONDON

Organised crime gangs vie for control of the capital in this wincingly violent Tarantino-esque series. Created by Gareth Evans, previously best known for directing Indonesian martial-arts films.
