About the Show

Brian Cox is a man on a mission; to save the lives of hopeless drunks.

20 years ago he was living in the cattle yards, drinking aftershave, methylated spirits and and anything else that would get him drunk. Through some kind of miracle he got sober and has dedicated his life to getting Melbourne’s most extreme drunks off the piss.

At a time when binge drinking is on the rise we go inside a rehab and see the devastating effects alcohol can have on people. This series gives us a window into the shocking, saddening and often confronting world of alcohol addiction.

The Last Chance Saloon is a rehab like no other. It’s rough, ready and managed by Brian Cox. Coxy is a tough talking Aussie battler who delivers his treatment with honesty, pragmatism and above all humour.
