Binge watched Four Lives last night about the murders of four young men by serial killer and rapist Stephen Port. Chilling portrayal of Port by Stephen Merchant who I barely recognised. The investigation was so fundamentally flawed that an inquest jury recently found that it probably contributed to three of the four deaths. Not for the faint hearted methinks.
We watched it and thought that Stephen Merchant and Sheridan Smith were excellent. Couldn't believe the ineptitude of the police in not linking the murders.
It was great, a really good and well constructed piece of drama. lots to think about in terms of assumed prejudices. I recommend it as a binge watch too.
wow I'm a huge fan of Stephen Merchant, I'll be watching that myself, cheers mags. Similar thing was the portrayal of Dennis Nilsen by David Tennant. I always think this sort of thing highlights how good these actors are.
Very good back to back watch last night. Stephen Merchant gave me nightmares, I could see him staring at me every time I closed my eyes.
Anne I thought I was the only one who couldn't stand Sheridan Smith so good to see I'm not alone.
