Episode 1

Philbrick starts out as an intern at famous London gallery White Cube. But within a few short years, he is running hugely successful galleries in London and Miami, specialising in postwar and contemporary fine art. With the market booming and a reality-TV-star girlfriend, he adopts a lavishly hedonistic lifestyle, spending millions on private jets and parties.

But what the art world doesn't yet know is that Philbrick has sold the same paintings to different people at once. Works by famous names like Jean-Michel Basquiat have been sold to multiple different investors at the same time, in elaborate multimillion-pound scams. When his lies start crashing down he must choose: face justice, or disappear?

Episode 2

Inigo Philbrick and his girlfriend, Made In Chelsea star Victoria Baker-Harber, vanish without a trace.

As his victims realise that they have been conned, the FBI begins a global manhunt. Philbrick is finally captured in Vanuatu, an island in the South Pacific, and is brought to New York to face justice in court, where the full extent of his $86 million scam is revealed. When asked by the judge why he did it, he answers simply - "For the money, your honour".

A seven-year prison sentence looks set to end to his life as an art dealer. But what do his crimes mean for every other collector and gallerist operating in an unregulated market, where trust is the currency of relationships?
