Episode 5: Greystone Mansion

Accused of bribery, Edward Doheny is feeling the pressure. Facing an uncertain future, he decides to start selling some of his vast oil business. Albert Fall, his old friend and co-accused, is first up in the courtroom – and the jury returns a devastating verdict.

Meanwhile, Peter Devlin takes a tour of Greystone Mansion, Ned’s colossal family home, with the Mayor of Beverly Hills – Dr Julian Gold. Built while the Teapot Dome scandal raged, construction was overseen by Ned’s friend and secretary Hugh Plunkett – but how did two men from very different worlds become such close friends?

In this eight part series, Peter Devlin and producer Conor McKay trace the extraordinary rags to riches story of Edward L Doheny – a penniless prospector who built a vast oil empire – to try and uncover the story of what really happened on 16th February 1929, when two men died in mysterious circumstances in Greystone mansion, Beverly Hills.
