Lowdown

2 Seasons 2010 - 2012 NR 7.6

The turbulent life of a hapless newspaper journalist.

Love-rats, sports cheats, drunken escapades, mob-men, fallen idols and sizzling starlets - celebrity scandal makes great copy. Narrated by Geoffrey Rush, the eight-part comedy series Lowdown shines a spotlight on the life of a man whose job it is to feed the public's insatiable appetite for celebrity gossip; a man who'll risk life and limb to secure every scandalous scoop.
