BUSTED
NEW SERIES
Through unique and unprecedented access and in-depth 
interviews Busted tells the untold story of some of the 
world’s biggest and most spectacular drugs busts. 
In this three-part documentary series, with co-operation 
for the first time from Defence Forces, Gardaí and 
Customs, Busted charts some of the most high-profile 
and bizarre drug seizures. From the elite Army Ranger 
Wing boarding a cargo ship in the high seas to tales 
of drug-filled torpedoes and submarines crossing 
the Atlantic, and how 1.5 tonnes of cocaine was found 
floating in a sleepy Cork bay – the inspiration behind 
The Young Offenders movie.
