Douglas Henshall as Sammy Kerr
Jute City (1991)
Dundee, Scotland, often nicknamed "Jute City", is the setting for a three-part made-for-television gangster thriller that incorporates the death of a freemason into its story.
Wikipedia describes one character: 'Fish's first prominent rôle was as the thug "Ferguson" alongside John Sessions in Jute City, a four-part [sic] 1991 BBC drama based on a group of Masonic ruffians.' Elsewhere on Wikipedia another actor is described: '1991 also saw Sessions in the BBC drama "Jute City", a 3-part thriller based around a sinister Masonic bunch of villains....'
Obviously, Sammy Curr appears in the regalia of Junior Warden of the lodge at some point but unfortunately the movie/series is not available so Freemasonry's rôle in the story cannot be confirmed.

Jute City (1991). Directed by Stuart Orme, written by David Kane. David O'Hara, Joanna Roth, John McGlynn, John Sessions, Jenny McCrindle, Ion Caramitru, Peter Mullan, Douglas Henshall, Billy Riddoch, Billy McElhaney, Fish, Phyllis Calvert. UK, English. Image source: douglashenshall.com
