Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFeatures some real-life footage of events that occurred in Salisbury at the time, but not all city scenes were filmed in Salisbury
- Crazy creditsIn the closing credits, the names of cast and crew (but not the corresponding character names or job titles) were all shown in inverse video: black text on rectangular white backgrounds.
- Alternate versionsUpon its initial airing on BBC One, the series was presented in three hour-long episodes. In every other territory, it was re-edited into four 45 minute-long episodes. Thus the 1st episode of the four part version covers events of the 1st episode of the BBC version, the 2nd covers the rest of the 1st BBC with some of the 2nd, the 3rd the rest of the 2nd BBC with some of the 3rd and the 4th the rest of the 3rd BBC.
Featured review
I wasn't sure what to expect from this, such a shocking real life event could have been sensationalised or spun, but credit where it's due, this was very well told.
Very well acted, a top notch production all round, we learn Salisbury's story, what happened to the father and daughter on that fateful day in 2018, but also the effects on beautiful Salisbury and its residents.
It could perhaps have been made into two parts, I think the three installments was perhaps a little overlong, Duff and Spall however made up for that.
It's a shocking, sad story, hard to believe possible in this day and age. The negative reviews are unrealistic, this is a good insight into what happened. 8/10.
