What the actual hell? Only seen the first episode so far. Was hoping all 3 would be on.

Disgusting dirty men.

Is it worth watching, OP?
It isn't child related, is it?

No they all seem early 20s. To be honest they haven't mentioned the girls much. There is an interview with one though.

They haven't said how they got over here or what was promised to them. There is one clip of a young woman coming into Heathrow. No idea what lies they were told to get them here.

I'm on episode 3. I'm honestly turning into a men hater (I know, NAMALT).

All 3 episodes are on all 4 I watched them all this afternoon a really good watch! Brilliant how the police conducted the investigation

Hi yes thanks. I found them then couldn't so assumed I'd got confused. I watched all earlier. I can't believe the sentences!!

I didn't make it through the first episode. I just didn't like the style of the programme. Too many dramatic, close-up shots. And too slow, so it didn't hook me in. Not sure how else to explain it really, although definitely a good thing if it raised awareness.

Couldn’t believe the sentences either. He must have caused so much misery and exploited so many people and he only got 5 years. He probably won’t serve all of that either. He’ll be out and enjoying his retirement before knows it.

I was impressed by the police investigation though.

I have just watched episode 1.
Is it ever revealed who posted the first envelope right at the beginning?

No we didn't. We also didn't find out what happened to any of the women and how they were persuaded to come over.

I wonder if they sold his porches homes and yacht.

I think it probably felt slow anyway because it was more like the pace of an actual investigation rather than the ITV dramas where they catch people in a day!

A lot of sentencing is just for a few years. They siphon the money off overseas ready for their release to lead a life of Riley. Crime pays. I was once a witness in a fraud trial of an ex colleague and he only got 5 years too. Makes justice a mockery.
