Thief takers

Fashion Victims (3x2)

Air date: Oct 30, 1997

Fashion can be a cut-throat business but it rarely descends into murder. The Flying Squad discover a gruesome side to the glamorous world of haute couture, though, when the investigate an international ring of designer clothes counterfeiters. The team is forced to take on help from Pieter Kluivert, a Dutch detective who has a personal vendetta against the ring's Mr Big. However, DI Glenn Matteo has a feeling not everything about Kluivert's role in the investigation is above board. Armed robbers ambush a fashion show and steal thousands of pounds worth of clothes. Then a visiting Dutch detective appeals for the Flying Squad's help in tracking down an arms dealer who murdered his son and claims that the man is linked to the fashion raid.
