A good drama, inspired by real events. Evans plays his part well with a good performance. It's not often you see him on British TV and so it was good to see him in this. A harrowing story which promotes how effective DNA technology can now be in cold cases, catching horrible offenders who in the past escaped detection. It did feel like something was missing. I was gearing up for a tense court room episode and it was over very quickly. The final episode felt very rushed and think an additional episode which focused more on the Court case would have added more to the drama. Really highlights the great work out cops do do. We really need them out there protecting us, hats of to the real cops involved in the case. Respect.
