The Club Part 2 - Netflix Series


The Club Part 2 | Official Trailer | Netflix
Netflix

We watched part 1 a little over a year ago, so we're familiar with all the characters and all the intrigue. This season we have the addition of a dastardly villain who is aiming to force out the Greek businessmen and buy up all their property cheap. He also has a hand in instigating the Istanbul Riots:
The Istanbul riots were a series of state-sponsored anti-Greek mob attacks directed primarily at Istanbul's Greek minority on 6–7 September 1955. The pogrom was orchestrated by the governing Democrat Party in Turkey with the cooperation of various security organizations. The events were triggered by news that the Greeks had bombed the Turkish consulate in Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece, - the house where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was born in 1881. The bomb was planted by a Turkish usher at the consulate, who was later arrested and confessed. The Turkish press was silent about the arrest, instead, it insinuated that Greeks had set off the bomb. 
Mustafa appeared in another show - Midnight at Pera Palace.
