This highly addictive and fiendishly entertaining series about a delinquent on the run across outback Australia in the 1980s has real oomph and chutzpah, leaping from the screen like a frog strapped to a firecracker. With its in-your-face attitude, springy plotlines and sassy young female protagonist, Thou Shalt Not Steal reminded me of SBS’s recent series Swift Street: both extremely bingeable productions that never take the audience’s attention for granted and work hard to sustain a punchy tempo.
