Seduciendo a un asesino

Considering it's based on a true story I think the writers did a good job of squeezing as much drama as possible from the events.

But it's not perfect. There are some very slow moments and overall it might have fitted one less episode better.

Having said that, it is quite compelling and most of the lead actors were excellent.

A moving and quite heartbreaking account of a special police unit, set up to ensnare their number one suspect of a grisly murder. But is their suspect the right man? What follows is a psychological game of cat & mouse, that ends with devastating consequences.

Based on true life events, it works well as an insight into how, even when we truly believe something to be so, that it doesn't always mean that it is.

Deceit was absolutely superb and I binged it in one sitting barely taking a breath. It held me captivated from start to finish. I remember this tragic case and how the undercover officer Lizzie James was treated by the press. It's about time the story was set straight. She was clearly an ambitious and smart officer but she was treated appallingly.

I googled all I could after watching and was pleased to see that Rachel's son and family gave their blessing for this drama and that the writer had worked closely with Colin Stagg to make sure he was happy with his portrayal. It's a clever trick to take us on the same journey Lizzie went on.

I also loved seeing a true crime drama that wasn't slow, plodding and patronising but actually made the audience think. And a great female character at the centre. I recommend this to everyone as there are valuable lessons to learn here. It's also a terrific thriller so will appeal to everyone not just true crime fans.

A four part series based on the tragic and brutal killing of Rachel Nickell back in 1992.

This is a dark, gritty, unforgiving drama, 4 relentless episodes that give you the horror of the crime from the point of view of the undercover Officer, it will unnerve you, it will upset you, at times it will shock you.

Parts one and two are excellent, parts three and four take it up yet another notch.

The production values are terrific, they really do capture 1992, not just the visuals, but the mood and atmosphere, the accompanying music is first rate, it adds to the story, they play some great tunes too.

I thought the acting was fabulous, Niamh Algar is the absolute standout, Treadaway and Marsan are great too.

Excellent drama, 9/10.

You know what it's like - just one more episode then I'm going to bed then before you know it you've done the whole thing and it's 2:00am on a work night! I have no idea who has rated this low but they were not watching the same thing as me! I was gripped and can't quite believe that the police, those that are here to protect us, could behave so despicably, so devious and blinkered. No spoilers but just wait until the last two episodes! Absolutely amazing!!!
