Beschreibung

The Front Line follows two half-brothers who couldn't be more different: Malcolm, a serious, rule-following police officer, and Sheldon, a laid-back Rastafarian who trusts his own path over authority. Sharing a home, their culture clashes, sibling squabbles and everyday mishaps fuel the comedy.

Episode 1

Malcom is getting ready for Security Patrol, and his half-brother Sheldon accuses him of only doing the job because he likes getting dressed up in uniforms. While Malcom is on patrol he meets his friend Fraser who is a policeman, and shows enthusiasm for joining the force. The brothers arrange their mother's burial with The Rev Colt, who is rather taken aback with the plans made by Sheldon. And Malcom is concerned when he hears Sheldon's ideas for their home - a roots and culture club with bands etc.
