It is on Britbox, just checked. I have my free month for another couple of weeks, I must get watching.

@LimeTreeGrove I could kiss you ! :) thank you xx

I've started rewatching myself. When the screen goes black, that's when it would have been adverts so just wait or scroll on and it comes back after a while. (I thought there was a problem with it at first) It's such a good episode (and the surgeon one)

How on earth did the corrupt Police officer not expect to get caught!

LimeTreeGrove · 12/01/2021 13:15

I reckon they didn't bank on the blackmailed person going to the police as they thought they'd be ashamed. I bet they were shitting themselves when they did report it and had a film crew there.

I love the way he feigned shock when he was told he was being arrested!!

LimeTreeGrove · 12/01/2021 13:22

Yes. Same as the woman in the episode who tried to get her husband killed.

It does make you realise just how good professional actors are, shock and surprise are actually very difficult to fake!

@LemonBreeland - when I googled it seemed to suggest I would be able to get it through BritBox but when I went on to BritBox I couldn’t access any of it - again, I think you might be able to if you are outside UK.

LemonBreeland · 12/01/2021 14:50

@Hels20 argh, you're right. It's not there once I log in. I wil lbe watching that vimeo one later though

Pebbledashery · 12/01/2021 15:14

Can't believe he did that ALL for £1k!

@Chicchicchicchiclana I watched the migrant workers episode (where the woman died but it was blamed on her heavy drinking and falling over? I've watched all episodes anyway) but don't recall anything particular at the beginning. Can you tell us what it was? I might remember it then.

That officer aged terribly in the 18 months between the clips of him interviewing/interviewed.

He was so amateur that I thought it was a staged reality TV set up at first. He must have been aware of the show and that his ex workplace/colleagues were part of it?? Yet did it anyway, and a didn’t even cover his tracks. Wow

Chicchicchicchiclana · 12/01/2021 19:18

@cosmopolitanplease

I'm glad someone remembers it as I do. At first her death was just going to be written off as an accident. I think that was local police decision but then for some reason the murder squad got involved and looked at it further? Scary to think that her murder could have been quietly brushed under the carpet while no one was looking and also, in the programme itself, that potential gross miscarriage of justice only warranted a very brief mention in the commentary. It's like they were scared to criticise local police. I would love to see the opening of that episode again to check I've remembered it right.

StarsonaString · 19/01/2021 23:22

While the one where the woman was murdered and made to look like an accident was interesting, there was one almost the opposite. A woman was found dead in a field, stabbed in the neck with a broken bottle. I was convinced the boyfriend did it but actually the forensics proved it was a suicide. Very sad.

TartanLassie · 30/01/2021 17:46

Oh. My. Fucking. God!!

That bent copper!

Thansk @LimeTreeGrove!!

Anymore links?

Hels20 · 21/03/2021 07:13

New episode this week - says The Sunday Times. I’ll be tuning in. Anyone else?

Vthirtyone · 25/03/2021 21:25

@LimeTreeGrove Thank you! Always wanted to watch that episode FlowersCakeWine
