List of Underbelly: Razor episodes
Underbelly: Razor is a thirteen-part Australian television mini-series detailing real events that occurred in Sydney between 1927 and 1936. Fourth in the Underbelly franchise, this series depicts the 'razor gangs' who controlled the city's underworld during the era of the Roaring Twenties and the violent battle between the two "vice queen" powers, Kate Leigh and Tilly Devine. Embroiled in both of these wars were notorious prostitute of the 1920s and 1930s, Nellie Cameron, and Australia's still-young police force, trying to find its feet amidst the violence. Underbelly: Razor began screening on the Nine Network on 21 August 2011; the first two episodes of the series were broadcast back-to-back as a telemovie. This edition of Underbelly is notable for boasting the largest principal cast yet (4, 5, 8 and 10 members respectively, for each of the four series so far), and also being the first to not be based on work by Age journalists, John Silvester and Andrew Rule, instead on the book Razor by Larry Writer.
