A harrowing first episode.

The real life murder of 23 year old Rachel Nickell, who was brutally killed in front of her young son back in 1992.

The story, is harrowing, I would have been twelve when it happened, but I never forgot the crime, nobody will forget the pictures of Rachel, a beautiful young woman, a sickening act.

It's a very strong start, a high quality production, it is intense and unforgiving. Those with a sensitive nature may well find some of the dialogue upsetting.

Terrific acting here, Niamh Algar and Eddie Marsan are both outstanding, there is a degree of sincerity in each of their performances.

The music is awesome, spot on production values too, they really did manage to capture the spirit and the vibe of 1992.

A very strong start 8/10.

A good start to this. I had just watched the leading actress in The Virtues but the character here is very different. Eddie Marsen however is very similar to his character in the recent series The Pact I am not sure they needed to show so much if the previous case but a great start.
