Guy Ritchie’sThe Gentlemenhasn’t just made a successful leap from cinema to TV, theNetflixseries has bettered the movie – in our opinion. But, did you know that it’s not the first film from the director to get a television spinoff?
That honour goes to Ritchie’s first crime caper,Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
In many ways, it was similar to today’sBrassic– which is equally superb and currently on Sky and Now. However, eachLock, Stockepisode was self-titled and can just about be viewed in any order.
The only problem is that, bar a DVD release back in the day, it’s hard to watch. You can buy a second-hand copy of the disc collection –including on Amazon– but nostreaming servicehas picked it up, not even its original broadcaster, Channel 4, for its All 4 platform.

So, if you have finishedThe Gentlemenand are hankering for a touch more Ritchie-esque Brit bad boy shenanigans, carry on.
Episode 1: Lock, Stock… and Four Stolen Hooves
It’s also feature-length, so sets the stall nicely for the rest of the series.
The four owners of The Lock pub run into bother with East London gangster, Miami Vice, and in trying to resolve it run into all manner of different scrapes which involve all manner of Guy Ritchie tropes – the travelling community, lap dancers, arsonists and a stolen racehorse (hence the title).
Episode 2: Lock, Stock… and Two Hundred Smoking Kalashnikovs
This time the crew once again draw the ire of Miami Vice after they unwittingly find themselves in possession of a van full of automatic firearms.
Episode 3: Lock Stock… and a Fistful of Jack and Jills
Martin Freeman pops up in an early role in this episode, as a Dutch drug dealer. Cue more capers and hilarity.
Episode 4: Lock, Stock… and Spaghetti Sauce
Episode 4 turns to the sex industry as the boys have to come up with a plan to keep notorious porn baron, Deep Throat, at bay.
Episode 5: Lock, Stock… and Two Sips
This time the team run into more bother as they look after one of them’s uncle, Two Sips.
Episode 6: Lock, Stock… and One Big Bullock
As the title suggests, episode 6 involves the boys, a prize bull, and a trio of crazed Russian gangsters.
Episode 7: Lock, Stock… and a Good Slopping Out
Was there a second season of Lock, Stock…
Sadly, Lock, Stock wasn’t recommissioned, but its spirit lives on inThe Gentlemenon Netflix.
And at least you can see and laugh at the early career choices of Martin Freeman, Shaun Parkes (Lost in Space) and Scott Maslen (Eastenders) in the first and only series above.
Remember, it’s been emotional.
