A harrowing true story. The incompetencies of the Police make it seem unbelievable but by all accounts, it was the case. On the whole, well put together and the acting was good barring Sheridan Smith. Overly aggressive, unlikeable and couldn't even say her character's sons name properly. Regardless, I would still recommend.
The show four lives is unfortunately based on true preventable events which I knew before going into watching it , I am truly sorry for the families and victims than ever before.
The show is accurate and very well acted, especially regarding Sheridan Smiths performance which I have no doubt she'll win many awards for!
I hope the tv show brings more light to unjust crimes not just in the UK but everywhere !
If u have the time to spare watch this TV show and please support the LGBT community.
Thank you .

Very good drama based on a recent true story
Excellent performance as per usual by Sheridan Smith and the surprise package of Stephen Merchant as the evil Port.

Grim true life crime told sympathetically with credible performances all round, of four family's fight for justice. Sheriden Smith and Stephen Merchant both looking very comfortable in their roles. You're left with equal measures of anger at the perpetrator of the horrific crimes and the incredible incompetence of the police.
This is a really well-made story of how four young men were murdered by same man after meeting up through a gay dating website. It's a tale very much of the time we live in. It seems to me there's so many young people who are prepared to just meet complete strangers through social media, without really thinking of the potential consequences.
Sheridan Smith plays the mother of the first victim and as always she puts on a first class performance. As far as I'm aware this was Stephen merchants first straight role and deserves praise for the way he portrayed the evil sadistic killer, who claimed his innocence right up to the end. Well worth a watch particularly if like me you were previously unaware of this story. 8/10.

- TriviaTitle changed from "The Barking Murders" to Four Lives to honor the victims. Additionally, the creators thought the previous title might sounded too much like a conventional police procedure drama.
