Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of people who can't resist a good whodunit and anyone who likes knowing it really happened. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. Sits nicely alongside Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer or Sherlock Holmes. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards.
The mood
Gritty, eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 47 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

As serial killer Peter Tobin awaits his third murder conviction, investigators from the British televisions series Real Crime look back at his twisted life. Deemed too dangerous to ever be released from prison, police believed theyve only begun to count his victims. Tobin himself brags of killing up to 48 people. What is the truth behind this well-dressed Killer, known as the charming psychopath?
