Enjoyed episode 1. Excellent cast. Seems it’s to be told more from Victims/family perspective and not to glamorise the Killer.
Regarding the £5 note they charge… the average wage for manual work was around £1 an hour depending on age in 1975 Britain!!!

What a stellar cast! If you love British crime drama’s, then you’ll recognize a lot of the actors in this new drama. Going on my list to watch…….the list is getting mighty long and I plan on retiring in 2 years, so the first 6 months of my retirement shall be devoted to watching things on my list.

After the ending, I needed more information! I understand that they were trying to honor the victims. But I wanted to know how they changed the way they investigate. There’s been quite a few mass murder cases, that took years to solve. I recommend this series, it’ll haunt you.
