No-ones life is ever going to be the same.Now in its fouth series there's a lot of changes on the Chatsworth Estate. Kev & Veronica have left after being charged with trying to buy a baby and gangland family ‘The Maguire's' now live next door to the Gallagher's, and The Jockey has a whole new atmosphere with Jamie the Maguire's eldest working behind the bar, and with all his charm he's caught the attention of Karen.Shameless is packed with sex, drugs, gratuitous violence, love and scams.
