Good if slightly superficial retelling of the story of an investigation into a so-called "honour killing".
Keeley Hawes, as always, is excellent and is very credible as DCI Caroline Goode, the officer in charge of finding out what happened to a missing Asian girl. Shockingly, she discovers that she is far from the first police officer to have been made aware that something was amiss in the victim's life, but she's the first to take things seriously. The investigation moves from missing person to murder, with suspicion rapidly descending on members of the girl's family who refuse to co-operate with the police, insisting that the girl simply went away while knowing that the truth is very different.
It might be argued that there's a lack of cinematic drama though frankly I find that a bonus; this is a recreation of a real murder investigation - why does it need to be turned into anything else ? The supporting cast comes across as very natural, again omitting any excessive drama, and the background story throws a frightening spotlight on the cultural attitudes of some minorities in our society.
This is a very decent mini-series and well worth an 8.

Story about a girl failed by her backward family, then failed by police & everyone else. I hope girls in these families & culture learn about the rights in the society and save their lives by leaving it
A compelling story well told. The pace and character's frustrations appear realistic. The acting, especially from Rihanne Barretto, is strong and personal.
Recommended.

A short, two-part, series about a tragic real event.
It's a well acted show, if nothing out of this world. Keeley Hawes gives the best acting on display in her role as Caroline. With that noted, it's only really the sadness from the real life story that keeps the show ticking over. At two episodes, though, it's well worth viewing. It does an appropriate job at showing how disgracefully let down Banaz Mahmod was.

Keeley Hawes normally makes decent career choices, but this time her radar let her down badly. Despite her own best efforts ... and she does give a credible, emotional performance ... just about everything else was a washout.
No fast paced action, no twists, and no moments of tension. It was just very dull.
Some may argue that a true story deserves to be shown with an air of realism, and that police work is mostly mundane. Well in that case, get the real Inspector Caroline Goode to contribute to a documentary-style presentation and skip the drama aspect completely.
Most viewers tune in for something that is cinematic and memorable. This wasn't. 6.8/10
