Des.. ITV David Tennant Drama...

[Elderflower14]

Who else is watching?? Hope its not too gory!!

'I'm really enjoying this series, although I don't think 'enjoying' is the right word.'

I know what you mean! He is SUCH a horrible character. He reminds me so much of Fred West in Appropriate Adult - talking about sickening crimes with total ease, messing with people's heads and stringing them along, manipulating people being as easy as breathing.... it really gets under your skin

I really like how they've avoided using gore to make a point. The tiny glimpses of the victims are more shocking and moving for it.

Re Nilsen's accent: he was half Norwegian and had been partly brought up by his Norwegian father, which might have come through in his voice.

If you go onto YouTube you can see interviews with DN. Tennants accent is pretty good.

I've seen the 1st episode and through it was very good and David as always is amazing

He just gets more and more chilling.

The reason the death penalty was got rid of is because of the connection to the John Christie case which i mentioned upthread

The wrongful conviction and execution of Timothy Evans

Everywhere must've been so smokey back in the day.. And everyone must've reeked of cigarette smoke!!

Nilsons job at the Job Centre would have given him knowledge about vulnerable clients ............those who were homeless or in hostels.

Everywhere was smokey back then, I think they are over egging the fags tbh its becoming a joke in our house

Glaringly obvious that Carl Stotter had/has PTSD.

Daniel May is a great actor isn't he?

Does anyone know the name of the actor that is playing the defence barrister? I need to know what I know him from......

Everyone must have stunk of smoke.....

Sorry. Overuse of ellipses.

Good God the homophobia in the courtroom. Poor Carl.

And ours.

We keep thinking that in the next scene there'll be a fag between each finger. Both hands grin]

@Spaghettio he was in an episode of Poirot. And possibly the Kings speech.

It's Pip Torrens.

Imagine being on the jury for this

I keep trying to find him on IMDB but he's not appearing in the cast list of things i think he's in! I'm sure you're right about the Kings Speech or maybe The Crown.

He was in Poldark as well I think

Started watching it last night. Very grim but good.
More grim as we live two streets up from 23 Cranley Gardens where this took place. A beautiful street otherwise

PIP TORRENS! I found him. He's been in bloody everything.

Yes Pip Torrens is always is stuff. He was Lascelles in the Crown.

Pip Torrens is a great character actor with a list of roles as long as your bloody arm. Also looks least like a 'Pip' as it's possible to, I would say
