In the Footsteps of Killers

This has the potential to be really good, but I agree with other reviews. Emilia seems to be acting, I kept thinking I was watching a drama when it went to her; so wrong and weird!

Is it a documentary or a dramatisation of two people investigating? It doesn't know what it wants to be.

Emilia Fox happened to star in a crime drama and is now playing the role of a cold case investigator. I can't tell if she's being her or 'acting'. Whatever it is....it ain't good.

The interaction between the two 'leads' is very weird. They don't have a normal conversation instead they just reel off know detail to each other as if reading off cue cards.

The piano music overlaying the speech is annoying and the camera appears to be operated by someone with Parkinsons disease.

Initially seems like it will be a good programme, but it is just a let down.

Throughout each episode they hint at how the killer 'needs to be found' and how important their work is.

By the end of each episode and all they have achieved upsetting the family members again by making them relive it all and they end up no closer to the truth. They just stand in various woodlands looking concerned and the woman marches around pretending to take important emergency phone calls. And then they find nothing out, give up on the investigation and then it's the end of the episode. Pointless build up for nothing.

If I could give a minus score I would, Very disrespective to the families.

No conclusion just maybes and what if this happened. Even the music is meant to sound like "Silent Witness" really shocking anyone who make or be part of this.

The first thing any form of visual entertainment should do is engage the viewer. This show totally fails because no one involved in the production seems to have a clue what the show wants to be and more to the point, apparently doesn't care.
