9/10
Probably the only way to do it
9 October 2022
The crimes of Brady and Hindley were so appalling, so cruel and so unfathomable that the only way this story could be told was to not dwell on their crimes but on the people innocently drawn into the orbit of this vile couple's crimes.

We don't get to understand the motivations for what they did because, as I said, their actions were unfathomable but we do see how Hindley's young sister, her husband and the parents of the victims were affected. I think this was the only way to tell this story because too much focus on the horrific details would have been too sensationalistic and harrowing.

The attention to the period detail and the performances are excellent.
