Innocent people get randomly shot, and then known associates of said random people get shot- because they are actually good people- reality check sunshine- if your family is involved they are crooked too- if you look back at the family histories of all these dead beats- its generation after generation of drug dealing rough heads... them knocking each other off is Darwin at work I say!

Got to get the book 'Filthy Rat by simon illingworth' if you want it without the spin of the media and producers. It cuts to the chase with these low life scum bags and tells it how it is. It is available now via fontaine press.

Great show and like many have said "very interesting". I secretly enjoy the vics not being able to see it lol. The only thing that gets a bit rich is everyone calling it a war, people high on drugs knocking off blokes in a cowardly way is no war.

Could someone please tell me in very very basic terms (you gather now that I am technologically deficient how I can download this fanatstic series, called Underbelly...

Specifically I would like to see the shower scene of Roger Corser..so if someone can send me a link to that, it would be great...

There is another link doing the rounds with Roger in a jogging scene in some other tv show. He does have an awesome appendage. I hope someone can help out. Have a great day.

Are the books "Leadbelly" and "Underbelly: the gangland war" both by silvester and rule the same?

i'm assuming they are and that the latter has been re-released with new title to reflect the show.

That was responding to anonymous of course about the shower sex scene in Ep3

HELL YES!!!!!
That wasn't a donga. It was a babys arm holding an apple!!!
Won't hurt his image one little bit. HEHE
I told my wife and others who missed it and didn't believe me. We all watched the catch-up late last night and confirmed that there was indead a very large "member" hanbing between his legs during the shower sex scene. You'd think the editors would have picked it up!!!! not literally of course

I have been hanging for Wed nights to watch this series.
I often think about the kids of the real characters and hope they are doing OK. True or false they are living with it.
Living in wollongong- we want 'undervella' to start production soon!

I love the series but I know for a fact that Richard Mladenich came from an Istrian/Italian family that was displaced at the end of the second world war. It is reasonably common for people from this region to speak and identify as italian but have croatian names. I was also surprised that Richie calls Dibra and Rocco crazy Italians as he was italian and I was pretty sure that Dibra would not be.
The hard thing about this series is that you get quite interested in certain characters and then they get killed off. Gangitano was a scary guy but Colosimo was so great to watch that it seems a shame to not see any more of him. Likewise the guy playing Mark Moran was sexy and intriguing but he's finished too. I guess that there won't be too many left by the end.To some extent Richie Mladenich provided comic relief even though he was a bit of a tragic figure really. It was great to see his mother portrayed so sympathetically. Families of crooks often have a hard time.

I would like to know how the Moran children and the wives are going with getting on with their lives? Also is Mokbels current partner the same as depicted in the show?

Came across this low profile book on the subject, FILTHY RAT by Simon Illingworth, being re-released next month. Apparently tells the 'real' grubby Underbelly story without the gloss. http://www.fontainepress.com/the-underbelly-TV_filthy_rat.html

Somebody told me that Dannielle McGuire is Eddie Mcguire's sister, does anybody know if this is true or just a stupid rumour.

Blue murderous

Here we go again,
In 1995 there was an excellent mini-series called "Blue Murder", about the NSW underworld dealings of Neddy Smith and infamous corrupt cop Roger Rodgerson.
This was shown in all states except for NSW, due to an on-going investigation against Neddy Smith.
I was devasted when it was banned in NSW, and back then there was no such thing as torrents, or internet downloads. 10 years later it finally made its debut in NSW, which by that stage, had lost some of its releavnce and impact. Still, it was an excellent piece of Australian true crime drama.
Lets hope the VICs learn our lessons and allow this important story to be told. (otherwise, just download it)

Did anyone else notice last night that when Officer Owen and his girlfriend were having sex in the shower you could actually see his donga hanging down??? Bahahaha I thought it was hilarious

Melbourne is a town not a state.. the state it was banned in was Victoria... not Melbourne...

jimbob

great show!!!reminds me of another aussie true crime mini series called blue murder. the facts arn't always 100 percent correct but they both tell the story of what went on.

Big H

i think the show is bodgey. I am related to a character and the portrayals of the main characters is way off. Dino Dibra was a complete womble and criminal nobody. So too the whole Sunshine crew.

just watched 1 to 10 unreal love it must get the last three episode`s

One thing I found very clever from the writers of the show was how they used the same actor for Richard Mladenich and Bluey from the movie Chopper. They even refer to Richard Mladenich as doing time with Chopper as well. Using the same actor in both movies to me was perfect.

if the production company gave you the 1st 9 then why cant you ask them for the rest?
or did you steal them lol

Not a bad series, a little rough on the edges in terms of acting and editing.

John Silvester & Co. should have got some of their facts straight though.

Big disappointment is DINO DIBRA. The guy is portrayed as an ethnic Italian and is called (along with ROCCO ARICO) "you Italian fruitcakes" by RICHARD MLADENICH in the episode last night.

Weird..... all the Underbelly books and Leadbelly books and so on, *never* specify DINO's ethnicity and imply that he is Italian.

In-fact, if anyone bothered to look, DIBRA is an Albanian surname. DIBRA's family even appeared on the news when he died to plead for information. They're an Albanian family, not Italian.

His sisters: Sebije Dibra & Violetta Mujushi along with his father Ramiz Dibra appeared at a police media conference after the murder. Check out this link:

http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/12/30/1072546532869.html

Poor researching I'd say. The fact that in over 8 years none of the books published by these guys (let alone the TV series) picked up on the fact that Dino was not an Italian like all the authors preferred to portray. Or perhaps, it is part of the whole "image" that they prefer to sell -- cram as many Italians or other certain ethnicities into the book because it sells more?? Poor research.

When you get this can you also give it to me thnx!

This show is great stuff, i used to live in melbourne and still call it home. I think its a bit av how its banned in VIC but to be honest it is very close to when it all happened. I thought they woul have waited a bit longer! Does anyone have a copy of the zoo magazine that had a story about this? It was a really great article and would love to have a copy or even a photo copy. cheers

I enjoyed watching underbelly and will enjoy watching all the episodes. I have enough friends who knew most of the main criminal characters and had access to read some of the investigation reports at the time. To have produced this as it really was would have resulted in a great deal of boring hours of watching endless discussions and police foot work which would have been enough to send anyone to a deep sleep. It had enough reality and truth in it to give people who never knew what was happening at the time some glimmer of what the underworld was doing and enough theatrical writing and embellishments to make the shows lively and interesting.

Y’know, if you take out the killings, there is nothing there which is not happening in every capital city not just in Australia but anywhere in the world. Pity that the Justice System will not allow Melbournians watch it as it comes to air though.

I seen the 1ST series what a farce, i met some of the major players in this war, although what happended in this war was sad. these guys played a huge price for pursuing thier dreams and channel 9 with its cheap suits and poor quality acting are just once again trying to cash in on dead people, ONCE AGAIN IT SHOWS CRIMANAL WORK AND WORKS STILL COMMAND BIG DOLLAR,

Anonymous

Get a life people! Its DRAMA! A certain amount of content for this show is CREATED. Yes its fascinating to watch, but just remember it is only TV and these "Characters", although BASED on real life scum are only artistic portrayals. Lets not champion criminals but give kudos to the great acting this drama showcases.

this is one fantastic series..camnt get enough..

The way they did the black prince episode shows that they mean no offence to anyone and that they just want the truth to be tlod once and for all it hasn't only affected Victoria its affected the whole if Australia famliy members from other states have died in these gang wars and the public has a right to know the truth
