Did anyone watch that program last night on Ch4 about the killer Aileen?  I am looking to find the name of the song that was played at the end during the credits. Thanks in advance.

Carnival, by Natalie Merchant.
Lyrics here: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/nataliemerchant/carnival. html

Lyrics explain why she chose the song, which go hand in hand with what she told the interviewer, off cam. The best bit of documentary making I ever saw? Probably. Funny to see all the american reporters scrambling round the brit documaker for his story.
I'm inclined to believe her self defence story. She looks delusional, but what the hell, fry her, they say, it'll save a fortune on asylum bills. I feel terrible for her, but much worse for americans who have to live in the kind of society that this penal system creates.
The Hollywood film put a bit more emphasis on the self defence bit though.
Question Author

Many thanks for the answer. I agree with you on the fact that I think it was also self defence, but she knew arguing her innocence would get her nowhere in court. Instead of spending a life in prison rather end it. I feel for her.
