The Fear is a five-part television drama produced by Thames Television subsidiary Euston Films for ITV. Broadcast from 17 February to 16 March 1988, the serial follows Carl Galton, the enterprising leader of a criminal gang running a protection racket in North London. Young and ambitious, Galton represents a new breed of criminal who seeks to expand his underworld empire and takes on the old East End firms. 1980s materialism clashes with old school London villainy as Galton rises to power, yet his ruthlessness carries a personal cost, especially on his wife Linda and best friend Marty.
Carl wants to strongarm Klein out of business but gangster Tony Slater has already bought a stake in his empire. Meanwhile, Marty confesses to Carl that he's gay and is conflicted while his wife Linda is terrified he will discover her affair.
