Rake stars Richard Roxburgh as criminal defence barrister Cleaver Greene – defender of the indefensible and champion of the lost cause, both in the courtroom and the bedroom. We would like to tell you that since we last met our hero (season 1), he had found the road to Damascus instead of the road to perdition; he has learned to love wisely instead of too often and that it paid off to go another 25 grand into debt to back a ‘sure thing’ at Moonee Valley. Sadly, that epicentre of chaos otherwise known as Cleaver Greene, has learned nothing in this time and has not changed a whit. If anything, he’s a little worse. Like any genuine addict, Cleaver is on a constant search for faster rushes.
