Just started watching it - seems really good already. Fred West (actor) is very good at making me feel very uncomfortable.

Dominic West played a good part.

Hope this is on again as I can't get ITV player to work Think my poor old lap top cannot cope

Have sky+ the 2nd one though....

I thought this drama was brilliant, I love Emily Watson anyway, but really it was very gripping. I cried like a baby when they showed the real victims at the end. I have read loads of books about the West's and they both had upbringings which included incest and bestiality.

It is a fascinating case, the arguments about too soon are valid too. I had never heard about the cult/barn/brother thing that really did send shivers down my spine. I so hope it isn't true (but fear it is).

If it reflects what really happened, I wonder how she could put her own family through it. Appears her eldest son was unfairly burdened with keeping the family going.

Her later contact with West came across as bonkers - a bit like those women who fall in love with 'lifers' or men on death row

I hope Rose West is never released.
She's the scariest real life person I've ever seen. Even just looking at the actress playing her gave me the creeps.

Just finished watching the second part. I am a bit confused about why J.Leach continued to see Fred. When she tried to commit suicide I wondered if it was because she wasn't important any more.
Bloody good drama, and, as someone else said, even the actress playing Rose was chiling.
